5-Gallon Aquarium Kit with LED Lighting and Power Filter, Ideal for a Variety of Tropical Fish

I love this aquarium. It is the perfect size for my small desk and perfect for college students who want a little pet fish to keep them company. It only takes up a little space, but it is very spacious for the fish to swim around. I also really enjoy that the filter that is included only takes up a little space in the tank. The light that comes attached to the lid has so many different colors and light settings. The aquarium was very easy to set up and do water changes. This fish tank was effortless to set up in as little as a couple of minutes. This tank is excellent for its price as well as for its size, and it is a great value for your money. My betta fish, Bubbles, really enjoys his new home and is thriving with all the swimming room he has. You do have to be careful when cleaning the walls as it is acrylic and can scratch easily. The shipping was relatively fast, and the aquarium came in perfect condition. At first, I was a bit skeptical with some reviews saying that the light didn't work and the filter stopped working as well after a couple of months, but I was pleased that my light and filter are still working perfectly after four months, and it is going on strong. Although the filter didn't work right away, it did take a couple of minutes to see the water flow out of the filter. Overall, it is a really great purchase, and if I get another fish, I will buy another as the aquarium quality is excellent for how much I am paying. This product is a 10/10, and I recommend it to others looking for an aquarium around this price range.

This is such a nice set up for a really good price. It was easy to set up. The pump is very quiet, I can't even hear it. If you raise it above the water level the water sounds can be loud but I keep it low.. The LED lights in mine are in a few colors like multiple changing, blue, red, yellow, green and clear. I prefer clear, though. It has plenty of room to add things like artificial plants and a feature like the Betta Castle. Mine has been set up for about a week. I used water conditioners and fin conditions and let it settle over night before adding the Betta. He is very comfortable. I just introduced three little Mystery Snails, one purple, one yellow and one jade, to keep him company and give him something to watch. All in all, it's a great little tank. I ordered the gravel from Amazon for a great price, too. Update: I've had mine for about 7 weeks, now. It's still very quiet, all of the lights work, my Betta is still very content. This was a good purchase.

It’s really nice it’s super light weight my fish had no problem with it no break or leaks my only issue was because it’s plastic it was harder to get algae off the sides compared to glass tanks but if you do good up keep it’s perfect

This is a great upgrade from the 2gal tank. My grandbaby's fish have moved from the hood to the penthouse. I like the different color lights. My g'baby will love it. The size is good for two goldfish and a couple of snails. You have to watch the size and amount of decor that you add. Setting it up wasn't too difficult. I wish the instructions included the size of the filter replacement.

Just as described. It came packed so nicely in think cardboard. I love how lightweight this tank is. The filter seems gentle enough for our Betta. The tank is still cycling so he will go in tomorrow. Very excited for his new larger tank.

Do not buy! The tank is curved at the edges and completely distorts you view. Basically, you can only look at the tank if standing directly in front. Not to mention the “filter,” if that’s what you want to call it. It’s a complete piece of junk. It doesn’t circulate the water AT ALL, and the water in the tank turned brown less than 3 days after setting it up. Had to go out and buy a Tetra Whisper filter. The only nice feature about the tank is the options to change the lighting. Aside from that, I would give zero stars if possible.

As the majority of owners have said over and over and over... the LED light strip is horrible! I purchased this for my 6-yo daughter in December 2014 for Christmas because she's allergic to cats/dogs and she loves her fish, but the light burnt out within 2 months. I contacted customer support and they were great and shipped out a new light strip, but here I am again 3 months later with the same exact problem. There is a huge design flaw with the light: condensation builds up on the lid and around the light strip and the button contacts start to rust and corrode which renders it useless after a few months. Button stops working so you have to bend over and plug the power adapter in/out each time - gets old and annoying quickly... I'm not going to bother with another light strip to postpone my aggravation for 2 more months, so I'm looking for a better "waterproof" LED light that has a button mechanism. I think Koller-Craft would have a homerun with this little aquarium if they would just use a real waterproof light design. Shame really, because I honesty like the size and look of this tank (not too big/tall, just right for any room, low maintenance, quiet pump, easy to find/replace filters,etc). My daughter painted a cute backdrop and we taped it to the rear wall and it suddenly took on a whole new life... I just need to find a reliable waterproof LED light to make it complete. I would normally rank this tank 2 stars only because the light is so crappy, but the customer service, overall look and price of this tank give it an extra star.

Well, despite the reviews of people having problems with the LED lighting I purchased it and looked over the lighting system very carefully before I set up the tank. It looks like they have changed the LED set up from earlier versions of this tank. The power/program selection button has been relocated to the opposite (right) side of the tank and several 'new' lighting modes and timer modes have been added to the LED unit. There is an addendum sheet in the box that has the directions for the 'new' LED functions. Water proofing for the LED array inside the tank looks improved as well. So far, over several weeks of operation, the LED array is still dry even though the protective cover over them will build up condensation. I added a 25 watt submersible heater to the tank along with the other items needed for setting up a new tank. The heater power cord went through the same as the spot as the filter cord and both fit without jacking up the lid. The filter is small and quiet and super easy to disassemble and clean but a word of caution. I put 12 neon tetras in the tank with a beta and after 12 hours 6 of the tetras had vanished. I found them trapped and dead in the filter after having been sucked in through the slots. The slots are no bigger than those on other filters so I think that the tetras smaller size is what allowed this. I fashioned fish guard from a piece of fiberglass screen material from a local hardware store and affixed it to the filter with a couple of zip ties. Replaced the 'missing' tetras and 2 weeks after all 12 were still there. Some people have mentioned that this tank scratches easily, well it will if not cleaned properly any poly-carbonate or acrylic tank will scratch easily compared to a glass tank. Use clean microfiber cloths and cleaner for plastic glasses lenses and you'll be fine. Be careful with tank gravel cleaning, don't slide it along the tank walls!

The 5 gallon size is Mia leading. Accommodates not more than 2 Please make sure to convert to ac voltage before u plug in Size is about 1 ft x .75 ff x .75 ft total Waste of money

Muy buen producto. Mi pez está feliz. Muy fácil de instalar y mantener.

La pecera es muy buena, lo único que no me gustó es que el acrílico se ralla con cualquier cosa, la lave para cambiar el agua y quedó toda rayada y se ve opaca
