4.0 out of 5 stars My Betta's happy September 11, 2010

I bought one through Amazon. Bigger than what I expected. It's a reasonably healthy space for a betta, mine is swimming happily. I was able to fit a small biological filter in the corner with no space problems. The unique "condo" design doubles as hiding areas for the fish. And it looks cool.

I give it 4-stars because it has no lid, I had to fashion one from clear, hard plastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars absolutely no complaints! January 2, 2011

I've had three of these for several months now and I have no complaints. I have a betta in each and have two stacked with one on the side. I love the mod design and the fact that each bowl holds close to a gallon gives each of my betta a decent amount of space in a modern, compact design. they are easy to clean and I change the water every two weeks. it doesn't take long to clean and each of my betta are very happy with their homes. I'd highly recommend buying one or two!

4.0 out of 5 stars Cool design, good size for a small, low maintenance fish September 24, 2010

A Kid's Review

My fish isn't jumpy, so I don't mind that it has no lid... but it's tricky taking the glass-bowl part out when it's time for cleaning. Other than that, I like it a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars I have a happy fish February 28, 2011

I'll be honest, My co-worker and I bought this with the assumption that the fish would have actual rooms to swim in. But it doesn't. It's a glass box that fits down into the plastic crate.

That disappointment aside, it's a neat fish box. Everyone loves looking at it at work. And it holds a gallon of water perfectly-which is a nice amount of a betta (you really don't want less than that).

All in all, I'm quite happy with it. Now I just need to find a couch for my fish and we're set :)

4.0 out of 5 stars My Fish has checked-in January 6, 2011

By DVZ

I originally brought this because I love the design, but there things I realized after I set it up. My room is pretty cold, so it definitely needed a small heater inside and I also put in a underwater light. The fish hotel looks awesome when lit up. Thus, the problem is all the wiring that comes out, so its not really keeping that clean look, which it was intended for.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good novelty home at first August 7, 2011

By Kimotion

I bought two of these because I had 2 bettas and liked the modern-chic theme that added to my home. After a few months I actually sort of got bored of it. I think it's because the visibility of the colorful fish is a bit obstructed, and since I am a lot about the plant decor as well, the hiding areas of the walls made it even more hard to free up the aquascape.

However, I had no issues with the tank itself. It was roomy, safe, fish never jumped out and had room for a small filter. My issue is that it just wasn't for my taste, that's all. If you like minimal and simplicity yet with a bit of chic, this is for you. If you like to keep decorating and experiment with aquascaping while seeing it all fully, then I'd recommend a more visible tank.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Unless You Have A Cat April 6, 2012

By Matthew Dickerson

Amazon Verified Purchase

It is very nice and looks fantastic. Unfortunately, our cat turned it into a fresh seafood raw bar. We then put a cover over it but lost another fish. We finally realized that the cat was putting his paw in until the top as the openings on the side are not glass - they are cut open. I do love the bowl but not that much. They need some type of simple netting attachment for those of us with cats.

3.0 out of 5 stars Trendy, but High Maintenance September 2, 2011

By monchit

I like the look of the tank, but it's a hassle having to clean it every week. Therefore, I purchased a 1-3 gallon water filter, but the tank was not deep enough for the pump. Now half of the pump is out of the water, which is a slight eye sore, but at least I don't have to clean the tank again (maybe). By the way, I had to purchase this item twice because the first time, the glass tank did not fit inside the white frame. The second time, the glass fit, but there were minor scratches to the glass and the white frame was dirty.
