Aqueon LED Fish Aquarium Starter Kit, 10 gallon

I bought this tank so I could take my boyfriend's dwarf gourami from a community tank where he was being a bully, it arrived on time and the heater constantly heats to 78°f. My only two complains are that I wish the lights had a low light setting, and like other reviewers, my tank does have some uneven silicone.

I really like this aquarium. This is my first time fish keeping, and I enjoy it very much. But I did change the filter to an internal one. I believe the water became clearer within one day.

I love this tank. It comes with everything you need to get started (except decorations and a water test kit.) I have used it as a community tank for small fish and now that they’ve moved to my 29 gallon I have a betta and a snail in it. The filter isn’t too strong for my betta as I added a lot of floating plants. The LED light is very nice also.

The tank comes with everything you need to set up an aquarium, minus gravel, plants,and fish, but just as a heads up, the lights stop working on a very regular basis. With the way the hood is set up, if the contacts for the lights get wet, the lights stop working. If you fill the tank up all the way, the contacts will likely get wet. If you knock into the tank stand and the water sloshes, the contacts will get wet. If it is humid, condensation will form and the contacts will get wet. When you change the water in the tank, if water gets on the hood, the contacts will get wet. At this point you have to unplug the light and hope that after a few days the contacts will dry and your tank will get The tank comes with everything you need to set up an aquarium, minus gravel, plants,and fish, but just as a heads up, the lights stop working on a very regular basis.

So it's a decent setup, but don't expect the light to work on a regular basis, which is kind of a let down since you want to be able to see your fish, and don't expect any durability from the hood. … more

I wasn’t too thrilled about the filter. However, it does it’s job and the tank/heater work. Not a bad bundle for the price.

The filter worked for about an hour before it died. The rest of the tank/kit is great didn’t have issues with excess sealant like others did. Really like the set up just wish the filter wasn’t junk.

This tank was on sale, which is what prompted me to purchase. But it turns out, is a nice tank! I love that it comes with a heater, tho not using it now. The motor is louder than my other tanks, and I found it distracting at first, but I have gotten used to it and hardly notice it. A couple days after setting it up with fish, the change filter light started blinking.? As you can see from the pic, it gets two paws up from my cat!

The tank came nicely packaged with all the things needed to get it started. I bought my own gravel, plants, and decorations. It came with a heater, filter, temperature sticker, fish food, net, and water softener. I used two bags of gravel and it covered it nicely. If you have lots of things to cover may need three bags. The tank is in good shape. No issue who to much silicone around the edges. I am happy with the purchase.

comes with everything you need, everything works correctly, very satisfied.

There is silicon everywhere, blops of it, fingerprints of it on the glass, excess glooping out of joins, etc. I positioned the tank so most of it is turned away from the viewer. Also the filter was LOUD. I called Aqueon, held up the phone to the filter, and they shipped a new one to me immediately. Great customer service there. The new one is better, it doesn’t make the grinding noise, but still creates a loud harmonic hum against the glass. I have 4 other Aqueon filters in the house, and they are all very very quiet, so that’s disappointing. But it’s a complete tank for under $90, so I guess don’t expect much? But it adequately handled my recent guppy explosion without hurting my wallet There is silicon everywhere, blops of it, fingerprints of it on the glass, excess glooping out of joins, etc. I positioned the tank so most of it is turned away from the viewer.
