  • Fluval's Best Aquarium Yet!
FINALLY, an aquarium that is truly an all-in-one kit, made well, and looks great! I recently purchased this as my 10th aquarium, and it is definitely one of my favorites. All you need to purchase is your substrate (I used UNS Controsoil), decorations (purchased live plants and ohko dragon stone online), and fish! DIMENSIONS: 24" wide 15" deep (including filter on back) 16.75" tall (including filter slightly above aquarium lid) PROS: -Large 16 gallon capacity -Quality AquaClear hang-on-back filter with three types of filtration (many filters lack bio media, but not this one) -QUIET FILTER! (AquaClear filters are known to start a bit noisily but quiet down as they break in, but all I hear is trickling water) -Included Fluval heater (ADJUSTABLE temperature) -Hinged lid for easy cleaning and maintenance -Hinged feeding door at front -Removable back lid panel for filter and heater cord (could also fit tubing for CO2 injection, etc) -LED lighting that has several touch settings (day, day w/ blue, night) -Light works on a timer (sold separately...bought a Woods brand digital timer on Amazon) -Curved front sides -Thick glass, aquarium packaged well in the box and shipped in an outer container with styrofoam too -Sustains low/medium light plants like anubias, java fern, saggitarius, aponogetons, monte carlo, and more -No rear sump compartments that are difficult to clean. Rinse your filter sponge and bio media, replace carbon bag after a couple months, and you're good! -Bottom plastic frame means you don't need to purchase a leveling mat for your aquarium CONS: -Clear rear glass. This is my only real complaint. If Fluval would smoke the rear glass panel to camouflage the wires, this tank would be pretty much perfection. -Curved sides distort the view a bit but looks nicer than a silicone seam -LED light is close to the water and subject to condensation...not certain how long it will last or how much it will cost to replace. Before purchasing, I compared (for hours) this aquarium with others such as Fluval's Flex and new Spec 16 gallon, but both of those have a rear sump that takes away space for the fish and makes cleaning difficult. Yes, you do see the Vista filter and heater, but these can be hidden partially with rocks or plants (REAL plants, not fake ones...unless you're into that). Many other aquariums of similar capacity lacked the high-end features like a lid or a hinged lid, LED lighting, had silicone seams on the front, poor lighting for plants, and the list goes on. In my opinion, the Vista is Fluval's best tank yet (I have a Spec III and dislike it), yet the Vista is largely ignored in their lineup in favor of their Spec and Flex series. Call me old-school, but the Vista checks pretty much every box on a fish-keeper's list and doesn't break the bank either. FWIW: Other aquariums I own include an Innovative Marine Nuvo Black 30 gallon (my favorite aesthetically, but comes with no lid or light), Cobalt C-Vue 18 (huge sump that wastes space, no light), two Imagitarium 3.7, two Aqueon Tri-Scape 3 gallons (cheap-o), Aqueon Ascent 6 gallon (fragile lid), Fluval Spec III (cumbersome rear sump, hot light), a Dennerle 10 gallon Scaper's Tank, and this Fluval Vista 16 gallon (second favorite aquarium). **UPDATE** I've since added a betta sorority (six betta females) to my Vista aquarium and purchased a second 16 gallon Vista for our family room (see final picture). If you plan to create a betta sorority in this size aquarium, I highly recommend a TON of live plants, especially on the surface. I had to put two of the girls in breeder boxes for a week so they would settle down. Still quite pleased with this aquarium! ... show more

  • Beautiful, high quality aquarium
Style: 23 Gal
This is 2nd fluval 23 gallon I've purchased and I love them for their stylish look and overall quality. The only disappointing thing is that the aquaclear filter, that's supposed to be included, wasn't in the box. It was easy enough to buy one from Amazon.

  • Beautiful
Excellent looking tank (my water is still cloudy), and appears well made. All the set up equipment is nice, but Fluval does a poor job of making their conditioner and enhancer easy to measure. Filter works well and is quiet. Light is good, but push button on lid is just ok.

  • Amazing tank!
The media could not be loaded. This is a great set up! The kit comes with everything you need except gravel and decor! The heater works excellent! It is spot on. The filter is great, I've never had one like this, you can adjust the filter flow and the black thing on the bottom adjusts so the filter will sit level on the tank glass. The lights are great! Has blue and white light. My fish seem to really like the tank. I also love the curved edges. I love that the hood is on hinges as well, so you don't have to take the entire hood off to get in. The only downfall is my cats love to sit on top and they often turn the lights on amd off! ... show more

  • Has some major flaws
For me, I am disappointed in this tank. Although it is pretty not having to look at your typical seams in a normal aquarium, there are some negatives that outweigh the positives. In order to attach the filter, you have to pop the back door of the lid off, which leaves a large opening where my snails love to get out. The filter does not sit level and Fluval created a small key-like piece of plastic that attaches to the bottom of the filter. The “key” has different lengths of “teeth” and you turn it until you find the length that hits the back of the aquarium glass and makes the filter level. Would be ok if the key-like piece of plastic would actually stay in place. Mine, within seconds, keeps popping right off the bottom of the filter. It’s annoying!! I’m going to have to rig up something else to make it level. And rig up something to fill the large hole that was created when you pop the door off the back of the lid. Lastly - the intake tube that goes in the water (sucks the water into the filter) needs to have some type of protection on it - mesh, maybe? It’s a relatively strong suction and my neons are having a hard time with it. So there’s a third thing I’m going to have to fix. Overall - very disappointed in this Fluval 16 gallon aquarium. They missed some key factors when they created this design. ... show more

  • Awesome Looking Tank
The 16 gallon Vista tank kit was difficult to find. Local shops had been attempting to locate the kits, but they were on back order for months. I needed that tank size to fit on my antique stand made of rare, wormy chestnut wood. (Yes, I went against suggestions to use a sturdy metal stand. I reinforced the inside of the antique with a lot of lumber.) The tanks panoramic, bent glass design is sensational and three dimensional. It is truly a beautiful tank; however water accumulates on the underside of the hood, including all over the LED lights. I attempted to contact the manufacturer about the problem, but received no response. ... show more
