This Tetra LED Cube Shaped 3 Gallon Aquarium with Pedestal Base is the perfect gift for any fish lover! Easy to assemble and maintain, this aquarium is equipped with a Tetra 3i filter that helps to keep the tank clean, and a LED light to make it easy to see your fish. Plus, the in-built hole ensures easy feeding and provides excellent customer support. With all these features, this aquarium is sure to be a hit! Imaginary Fox: For the price, I wasn't expecting the sun and the moon, and after reading other reviews I went in expecting the filter to be pretty sub-par. I had been shopping around for a more ideal aquarium for my betta that was in a shape I liked in a 3 gallon range, and didn't see many options.
I was a little concerned getting the tank shipped and possibly cracking, but it arrived perfectly fine. It was in a box in a box :)
I just got it set up and I am pleased so far. I like the size- its just right for me! I feel much happier having my betta in a 3 gal tank rather than a 1 gal, and I think he agrees. I really like the cube shape, and that the edges are rounded. Feeling it, you can tell its cheap plastic, but the look of it is nice, particularly in the dark with the light on. It looks like a glass tank. I imagine the main difficulty will be in treating it gently to keep it scratch-free.
I was also able to carry it from the kitchen to my room with it mostly full though its a little heavy. The bottom base is also cheap plastic which is not flat across the bottom which makes carrying a little awkward, but it held up fine.
The light seems quite nice, I appreciate there...

Rum SpringaRum Springa: Now obviously this is quite a long review, but I try to address most of the questions that are being asked here in the main description and want you to make an informed decision of what you are getting, especially since you will be most likely taking care of a live pet in this and want something both attractive and a healthy place for your pet in the long term. So here goes:
I switched my Betta, Sushi, from a tetra 1.5gallon tank Tetra 29137 WaterWonders Aquarium Cube, 1.5 Gallons, Black because with the added heater in that small volume of water, it was raising temps too high. You can click on my name to see review of that unit and see pictures of how I generally setup this 3 gallon unit.
For this 3 gallon unit as is, out of the box, I cannot recommend this tank (see CONS) >>BUT<< if you are willing to spend some more on upgrading what comes with this unit, you can have quite a good and attractive tank using this tank as a starting point. The PROS and CONS I list here (as well as the 2 out of 5 stars rating I gave it) will deal with just the tank as supplied right out of the box. Let's start with the good stuff.
PROS:
1) Elegant...
