Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This tank is great for small spaces, and because it's so narrow (front to back) it really CAN fit on a bookshelf. The included filter has an adjustable flow, so you can dial it back for fish that don't like strong currents.
The tank LOOKS much bigger than it is because of the length, and it also has more surface area than many 6 gallon tanks. The surface area is important for gas exchange, so this is a big plus.
The bulb that comes with the tank isn't the best for live plants, but it's a size and type that is readily available at any big-box DIY store. I replaced the original bulb with a 6700 Kelvin (daylight) one for about $7, and the tank looks much better for it. The plants are much happier, too!
The only flaws are that the plastic is VERY easy to scratch, and the tank tends to leak from under the top trim. Lift the trim off the tank, lay down a bead of silicone sealant and replace the trim - this will stop the leaking.
Overall, this is a good deal and a very nice tank. I would recommend this to a friend.
