Review: 10/10 for my male betta fish !!! 🐠 - 10/10, I’ve had it for about 3 weeks already and it’s going great, my betta fish started off sadly with a 1 gallon, then a 2.5 gallon, but I knew he deserved (!AND THEY NEED!) a 5 or 10 gal or more, so I purchased this one. It was easy to set up and I love how in the instructions it’s actually illustrated in color and everything, I’m a kid and I understood the instructions quite well, it did take me about 8 hours to actually finished setting up because I needed to add in the substrate I also purchased along side with this, the heater, and the decor, and the plants I bought a few days later (PLEASE PLEASE BUY YOUR BETTA NATURAL PLANTS AND NOT PLASTIC ONES BECAUSE NATURAL PLANTS GIVE THEIR TANK A MORE NATURAL HABITAT LIKE IN THE WILD FOR THEM AND MAKES THEM VERY HAPPY !!)But it was worth the full 8 hours of setting up because it came out amazingly!!! GREAT quality! The little nozzle that’s pointing inside the cartilage filter can be extended and highered when you wanna do a water change which is amazing for me. (Also I don’t know why the video quality came out so bad) the water in the tank sounds extremely loud on video but in real life it’s kind of quiet. I’ve had 2 other tanks for my betta and they’re extremely loud and sometimes I couldn’t even sleep (I have the tank right next to my bed) it’s quiet waterfall and I enjoy it! Anyways it is in need for a cleaning I know. ! ALSO ! The filter did start leaking from the bottom a little bit like in the back but it was no problem, it just needed a cleaning and then it stopped, and the water does overflow on the cartilage in the video and it always does that, but it’s no problem at all for my betta fish, HES THRIVING AND HAPPY AND BRIGHT IN HIS TANK! I do plan on adding some netrite or mystery snails in the future for overall algae control (when adding new tank mates to a male betta fish tank please keep in consideration how aggressive your betta fish is because he could possibly kill it, I don’t have any experience with added tank mates but I have done my research and I’m careful with what I will put in here) I know a 5 gallon tank is just a good decent size for a betta fish to start off with , so maybe in the future i will buy a 10 gal from this brand, but this tank is gonna be here with him for a while. (He’s around a year and a half years old and I’ve had him for about a year) But yeah overall it’s 100/100 I would 100% repurchase it if this one ever broke down or something 😂
Review: Easy Water Changes - I recently purchased the Aqueon LED MiniBow Small Aquarium Fish Tank Kit with SmartClean Technology in black, 5-gallon size, for my high school math classroom, and I couldn't be happier with it! It has quickly become a wonderful addition, providing a calming and engaging presence for my students. Setting up the tank was a breeze. The kit comes with everything you need to get started, and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. The black trim gives it a sleek and professional look that fits perfectly in a classroom setting. The size is ideal – large enough to comfortably house our little community (a beautiful beta, two adorable loaches, a fascinating mystery snail, and even some surprise snail babies!), yet compact enough not to take up too much precious desk space. What truly sets this tank apart is the SmartClean Technology. Honestly, as a busy teacher, the thought of constant tank maintenance was a little daunting. However, the SmartClean system is a game-changer! Being able to perform partial water changes quickly and easily with the integrated drain tube has saved me so much time and effort. It’s a simple and effective way to keep the water quality high for our aquatic inhabitants. The LED lighting is also a fantastic feature. It provides a bright and natural-looking illumination that really makes the colors of our fish and the lush live plants pop. It creates a visually appealing environment that the students (and I!) love to observe. Speaking of plants, the 5-gallon size provides ample space to create a thriving planted aquarium, which not only looks beautiful but also contributes to a healthier ecosystem for our little critters. Our beta seems very content exploring his domain, and the loaches love to wiggle amongst the plant roots. Even the snails seem to be thriving! The gentle hum of the filter is barely noticeable, which is important in a classroom environment where we need to minimize distractions. This Aqueon LED MiniBow has been more than just a fish tank; it's become a focal point for learning and observation. The students are fascinated by the little ecosystem we've created, and it has sparked some great impromptu discussions about biology, responsibility, and even patience! It's been a wonderful way to bring a little bit of nature into the classroom. Overall, I highly recommend the Aqueon LED MiniBow Small Aquarium Fish Tank Kit with SmartClean Technology. It's a fantastic value, easy to set up and maintain, and provides a beautiful and healthy environment for small aquatic pets. It has been a truly positive addition to my classroom and I'm so glad I chose this tank!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great aquarium for beginners but needs a few "tweaks"
*by K***S on August 22, 2022*

This is a great aquarium! I love it for my betta. I love that it has a bowed front and provides some depth and perspective. I also have 2 mystery snails in there with him. The LED lights are fun and are on a convenient switch and embedded in the lid which is so nice to not have any additional lights hanging around. Cleanings are SO EASY with this tank. This was honestly why I chose this tank over the others this time around. I wanted easy cleaning with my busy schedule. But you do need to do your research depending on what kind of fish you are going to put in it. I had to buy some filter covers to cover my intake for the filter so my betta wouldn't get injured. Even reducing the flow by pulling "up" on the stem was still a threat to his large and beautiful fins. The covers (widely available online) help to protect him. Also, depending on what is in your tank and what you feed, the filters for this tank do not last long at all, barely over a week. Also, it took me a while to figure out that when the water from the filter goes through the overflow portion of the filter, your filter is 'expired' or all used up. This happens quickly, very quickly like I said previously in under two weeks. For this tank, it seems to happen faster than in my previous tanks/setups and I've had the same types of fish, food, water, etc combinations before; the tank is the only thing new. Also, because this is an acrylic tank, scratching it during cleaning is VERY easy. You must be careful when you do a full tank clean that you do not hurt the acrylic. For the above reasons, this tank got 4 stars from me.
