Didn’t really use anything else it came with because I have an Axolotl and they need a sponge filter and special food and hides. But the tank itself is great!

Margo Beach: The 20 gallon tank came packed with sturdy, hard foam squares at all corners. I was concerned the filter would be loud after reading some reviews......not so..... very quiet. My one complaint… the box the filter was in indicated to replace filter bags with “large” size. Upon receiving them I found they were too large and would not fit. I feel the filter included in the tank package was for a 10 gallon tank. I kept the ‘too large’ filter bags and decided to order a larger filter. I feel a larger one will keep my tank cleaner. I feel the small filter surface could be the reason I am experiencing a longer than usual time cycling my tank. The heater keeps the water temperature in the high 70's, perfect for the tropical fish I intend to place in the tank . I bought the GDLF metal stand from Amazon. The stand is very strong and beautiful. I am very pleased with the tank … other than the issue with the filter and definitely recommend purchasing the beautiful stand.

Here, There, & EverywhereHere, There, & Everywhere:
There are several components to this aquarium to review.
Firstly, the tank itself. It seems made well, simple enough.
Now the hood. It has perforated cutouts for a filter and such. It also has a rectangular feeding hole near the front. There are extra spaces in the back for the light cable and air tubing if so desired. The lights actually have to be placed into their respective slots on the underside of the hood and there is a channel for the cord. The light cord can come out the left or right side, depending on preference. There are also 2 hinges that need to be installed. We found installing them onto the hood first worked easier than putting them on the tank's rim first. Just make sure that the front lip of the hinge clip (shorter side) goes under the tank's inner rim or the hood will not go down flat/sit flush. I like the hood overall, but I am concerned about the light strips constant contact with water. They're not submerged in the water, but they stay wet nonetheless.
The heater is not being used, so I can not comment on that. I did stick the exterior temperature strip on the outside of the tank.
Now onto the other accessories. ...

Podrido88: Una gran opción para los que se inician en la acuariofília (80 lts) La urna de cristal es de buen material y esta bien ensamblada. El calentador mantiene una temperatura de 24 a 26 grados y el filtro a pesar de quedarse corto cumple con su función. ( Se recomienda tener filtro de respaldo) La pantalla de led es buena. Por lo que respecta al alimento y al acondicionador, estaría mejor si mandan los botes aunque sean de 250 ml y no sobres de muestra....

Mauricio FloresMauricio Flores: Excelente precio por lo que recibes. Las plantas artificiales son muy bonitas y de excelente calidad, nosotros cambiamos algunas solo por gusto, pero el surtido que incluye es más que suficiente tanto en variedad como en cantidad. No me gusta que el filtro whisper funciona con cartuchos desechables, intentaré adaptar algún filtro de gruesos y biológico que se adapte a mi gusto. En general, muy satisfecho con la compra, de hecho ordené también la versión Glo que también está muy bonita.

Pedro Pérez Pedro Pérez : Es un buen inicio ya que tiene todo lo necesario aunque en mi caso fue para substituir un pequeño acuario ya que mis peces estaban creciendo. Me parece que al filtro le falta capacidad de filtrado ya que entiendo que si el acuario es de 20 galones el filtro debería poder limpiar 60. Aunque ya lo apoye con otro filtro interno (del acuario anterior que me ayudó a acelerar el ciclado) y un producto que se llama Purigen (recomendado) Igualmente al filtro se le rompió la válvula de regulación de agua haciendo que no subiera por el tubo, pero con un poco de cinta teflón lo repare. Lo demás está bien. El calentador está preconfigurado para la temperatura y no se puede cambiar aunque se mantiene entre los 24 grados. En resumen me agrado la compra y la tapa con luces le dan muy buen aspecto. Ahora que bajo de precio me dan ganas de comprar otro jaja.

JamesC:
It's an aquarium. Not huge but big enough, you can put many different fish in it. I personally love it. I had an aquarium growing up that was the same size, but haven't had one in 20 years. This is a great one to get back in the game. Here are my initial impressions, and I will also leave some highly recommended upgrades to get you started.
It's came securely packaged. Working for a few years in distribution, I am fine with how it was packaged and don't get the issue that some people complain about. It comes with a lot of nice little extras. Water treatment, thermometer, fishnet, fish food...every little thing you can think of to get started. If you are thinking of getting an aquarium, I would definitely start with this one.
Now, bad things.
Sorry, but I have to do this. It comes with an nonadjustable thermostat. It heats to about 74 -76 degree range, so this will be the very first part replaced. But it also doesn't come with an underwater filter and air diffuser of any kind. I know that the filter it comes with naturally diffuses air back into the water, but....personal preference. So here are the upgrades that I think you...

VStevens: We bought this fish tank for my 14yo daughter for Christmas. The kit had the basics for getting started. We purchased gravel, a few additional decorations, an air pump, test strips, a gravel vacuum (manual), and various water treatments that weren't included.
The filter makes some noise but nothing too disruptive. After cycling the tank, testing the water, etc, she recently added some neon tetra, a baby pleco, and a snail. The LED light is a nice touch and really highlights the tetra and the glo-fish gravel we chose. Overall, my daughter is delighted and the lid is handy to keep out the cat, who is also delighted.
This is a decent beginner setup for the money. Would recommend!
