Most unique furniture ever
Date: August 22, 2009
"This is more than a fish tank, this is a centerpiece furniture. I finally got around to buying it and I can say it was definitely worth every penny!
First off, the tank came very well packed. It was fully stocked with 5 different sized plastic plants and enough glass gravel to cover the bottom of the tank. This really saved me a lot of money. I still bought some decor though as the plants alone aren't enough. You can also change out the gravel if you'd like, but the glass gravel it comes with is translucent to let the light from below shine through very well.
Before I purchased it, I had read that some people complained about the outlet cord couldn't be hidden. I solved this problem by cutting a couple small slices in my carpet and tunneled the cord under the carpet and thereby hiding it. Otherwise, the cord's gonna be a problem for tripping and overall will not look good. If you have hardwood or tiles, go to your nearest hardware store and try to find a safety cord cover (they have them for baby-proofing).
So overall great tank, great supplies, great shipping, and only a minor issue with the outlet cord. My guests will be talking about it for a long time!"

I want another
Date: May 19, 2008
"I bought one about a year and a half ago and I put it in my living room and it is beautiful and I love it. It brings in the wonder of an aquarium but it doesn't waste space I use mine for a coffee table."

The coolest tank by far
Date: January 31, 2008
"works as a centerpiece to a room or as just a coffee table. fits in nicely with any decor. Add simple fish like Goldfish,guppies , neons and mollies to start. Want more of a challenge! Add Angelfish! Enjoy! Comes complete with filter and lighting add the gravel and the decor and your all set to go."

A nice aquarium
Date: January 21, 2008
"This aquarium was given to me. It is a nice aquarium. We have received a lot of compliments with it. The light is underneath the aquarium. When it is turned on, the light against the blue gravel provides a nice color to the aquarium. CON. The cord for the light has to run somewhere. It can be an unsightly trip hazard if the aquarium is used as a coffee table. I found that it works best if the aquarium is an end table or an extra table against the wall so you can hide the cord. Also, there is limited space between the cut out area of the coffee table lip and the glass table top. This limits the filter system that can be used. Overall, I like the aquarium."
