I've Had This 55 Gallon Aquarium For Over Two Years Now. No Leaks, Great Quality
I've had this 55 gallon Tetra Aquarium for over two years now. No leaks, great quality.I got an Oase Biomaster Thermo 350 canister filter (purchased from Amazon).It has a built-in water heater, and also has a pre-filter which catches debris before it can get into the rest of the filter. The pre-filter is easy to remove and clean, which takes about 15 minutes.I clean the pre-filter once every two weeks.I got this stand for the aquarium (also purchased from Amazon), very sturdy and has the table-top design which provides uniform support for the bottom of the aquarium.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CF1FFXHH?th=1I also got an aquarium canopy with two hinged lids, LED aquarium light, aquarium gravel, and live aquarium plants (all purchased from Amazon).Instead of walking around the aquarium section of a pet store, I found it more relaxing to sit in my boxer shorts with a cup of coffee and my laptop, researching aquarium items and reading reviews...then making my purchase, and two days later the items were on my front porch.

New Home For My Fish
Was packaged immaculately, didn't have any damage. It came with set up directions. Have had it set up a couple days now. No leaks. Very sturdy and no stability issues. My previous tank had a leak (it was years old) and this was an affordable and easy replacement.

Oooh La-La!
I've wanted to have an aquarium since I was a kid. This is much taller than I envisioned to be, I can see that may be why the specific unit I bought was a used/return - I'll take a deal price like that every time. The one complaint I can lodge is the sticker stuck fast to the bottom inside, it'll be a nuisance to remove. Besides the discount price, the 18-inch height was one of the main reasons for choosing this one, more viewing area and a taller water column generally, for more potential activity. It's really not as heavy as one may think, but it is a touch awkward to handle given the dimensions. This is a relatively large volume of water, so it'll be heavy - one must account for that. I'm setting up a multi tank system with this as the main body, a 7 and this as 28 make a solid 35 gallon to work with. This is tempered glass, so it has the extra strength to actually support the weight of a small(er) tank sitting on top; although I'm pretty sure it'd hold up to it, I'll be fashioning a stand of sorts to help augment for strength of structural integrity. Describing it isn't much help, I know, so I'll add some pics to this review once I get it up and humming. This tank came with a couple packages of tank treatment 'stuff', which is at least a clue/notifier of the need to treat tap water, if not on a well - which I am. This is just a tank without any components, not a kit - although that is clear on the page data. The 2 "main" differences in tanks are the rim/rimless configuration; I'm adding a negative pressure tank, or 2, also - but both of mine have rims that will need modified to accommodate it/them - I want at least 1 on each tank. If my modification works, I'll definitely share it and include in this review as an edit. Besides just getting to finally take up a hobby of great interest, I'm also hoping this may become a potential "side hustle" of sorts, there's some species of fish and invertebrates I want to breed also; this tank has sewn seed for lot more than just this one.

Great but what the helly
Great size for my 🐢 sons. Just wondering who the genius is that decided putting a sticker inside a tank where water needs to be is a good idea.

Large aquarium is good for what I bought it for.
Works well for what I got it for (Two hermit crabs). Came with a tiny bit of fish food and a guided manual, but alas, I don't intend to house fish for a while (not until I clean my office, anyways!). This came in its own box and had a lot of foam to hold the corners. It was heavy inside the box, but outside the box it was somewhat more manageable. It's just getting it out of the box that was my biggest problem, although I was trying to be quiet as a mouse doing so. It's definitely large, large enough for 6+ inches of sand-coconut substrate mix AND decor. The price was steep, and I'd have probably been better off searching for hand-me-downs, but I wanted something clean. So far, it does not leak and keeps humidity in well when coupled with a glass lid. BTW, it doesn't come with a lid - I bought my glass lid seperately. Looks clean without any marks and is very sturdy.

Great for hermits
Got this for my hermit crab. Needed something small width-wise for the small counter space for it to sit on. Seems sturdy and I’m sure my crab loves the extra space.

Good
Got delivered fast and no broken pieces or anything like that. Everything was good besides there being a sticker in the middle bottom of the tank that I ripped and left it because I was going to put sand on it anyways
