Ugly duckling out of box but IF you are willing to spend more on upgrades, you'll have a swan
Now obviously this is quite a long review, but I try to address most of the questions that are being asked here in the main description and want you to make an informed decision of what you are getting, especially since you will be most likely taking care of a live pet in this and want something both attractive and a healthy place for your pet in the long term. So here goes: I switched my Betta, Sushi, from a tetra 1.5gallon tank Tetra 29137 WaterWonders Aquarium Cube, 1.5 Gallons, Black because with the added heater in that small volume of water, it was raising temps too high. You can click on my name to see review of that unit and see pictures of how I generally setup this 3 gallon unit. For this 3 gallon unit as is, out of the box, I cannot recommend this tank (see CONS) >>BUT<< if you are willing to spend some more on upgrading what comes with this unit, you can have quite a good and attractive tank using this tank as a starting point. The PROS and CONS I list here (as well as the 2 out of 5 stars rating I gave it) will deal with just the tank as supplied right out of the box. Let's start with the good stuff. PROS: 1) Elegant design: I know this is subjective, but having no dark edge bezels is nicer in my opinion. The raised base is solid when water and gravel are added. It's nice to be able to see "all" of the tank with minimal breakup of the entire look from most angles. 2) Supplied clip on LED: Mine has 9 individual LEDs that all came working (no dead LEDs) and nicely and evenly disperses light at an apparent comfortable level that does not bother my Betta. Unlike the 1.5gallon version, this LED unit is completely separate with its own power cord and not fused to the filter. NOTE: I do not believe these LEDS are suitable for most live plants (no way to verify as I could not find any documentation in box/online at what Kelvin these LEDs are at). But based on price of other trusted aquarium LED plant lights, I doubt you are getting plant/photosynthetic capable LEDs with this unit. 3) CUTOUTS: Has in the back right (if tank is facing you)approximately 3inch wide x 2inch deep cutout that will fit an after market filter comfortably (which this tank is going to require as the supplied filter is not recommended, see CONS). In front, similar to the 1.5gallon version, has a square cutout making it extremely easy to feed fish. More importantly, all the cutouts are rounded which is a major plus as I've seen other acrylics at this price point come with roughly cut edges that can nick you. 4) SMALL FOOTPRINT: just a tad larger foot print than it's 1.5 gallon counterpart and one of the reasons I bought this particular unit. If you are looking for a nice but small accent aquarium that can be put on almost any stable surface that can handle at least 30lbs (water is about 8lb/gallon x3 + rocks + plants, etc), then this might be the aquarium for you. There are other similar acrylic aquariums sold here on Amazon, but most are not square / are rectangular / looks like they could take up more space. This is a nice compact design. CONS: 1) FIT and FINISH: Not nearly as good as the 1.5gallon, which surprised me. The 1.5gallon version has a slightly curved top that fit flush with the edges. This one comes with a "flat" top. I put that in quotes because BOTH 3 gallon tanks I received actually had bowed /curved edges in the front that up close is noticeable and detracts from the neat elegant lines this tank is supposed to give off. So at eye level, you can see it plain as day open gaps in the front edges. (If I have time, I will upload pics of the bowed edges) Looking online, all pictures were flat and flush so I think this is a manufacturing defect and I ask anyone else who has this tank to chime in and let me know if they also received tanks with bent tops. Even after months, these edges remain up, they didn't settle down. As the material is acrylic I didn't want to chance putting on a heavy object to "flatten" the tops out. I cringe every time I clean the tank and see these edges. Very annoying. 2) INCLUDED FILTER and PUMP IS JUNK: many people will see free filter and included pump and think that's great. Well on BOTH the units I received, the pumps were OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD and one of them vibrated so badly near the tank it was visibly distressing my Betta. One pump was actually louder than my refrigerator when the the icemaker motor was making ice. That's just not acceptable. Do yourself a favor and once you open the box, just throw out that filter into the garbage. I'm dead serious. Also, since the pump is separate from the filter and connected via tubing, if the power goes out, you risk having water drain out of the tank onto the floor so you would be wise to buy a check valve if you insist on keeping the supplied crappy filter/pump. I suspect the only reason this cheap filter was thrown in was so that you would be locked into buying their branded replacement filters. Kind of like when razor blade company gives you a free razor so you you are locked into buying their blades. You would do much better for your fish and your sanity to buy an after market filter, I suggest and reviewed the Azoo Mignon 60 filter here: AZOO Mignon Filter 60 Also, the Azoo filter fits perfectly at the back cutout and even with the extension, will easily clear the ground floor on this 3 gallon tank. 3) Acrylic material: This is both a pro and a con. A pro because acrylic looks nice. A con in the long term because it scratches quite easily so you have to be really, really careful while cleaning this tank, even if you are using an acrylic approved sponge. -------------------- OPTIONAL RECOMMENDED UPGRADES: Well, if you've made it this far you might still be interested in buying this tank. Good. The following are suggestions on how you can pimp out this tank and make it really stand out and shine and make your fish more comfortable and remain healthy. 1) LIVE PLANTS: Now if you are going to just stick with the supplied LED light fixture then I can only recommend "set it and forget" plants that don't require (but it helps if you do) plant food and proper Kelvin rated light fixture. The following suggested plants should do well in low to medium light and this particular tank (they are thriving in mine with just the included LED lamp). A) marimo moss ball B) java MOSS, see me review here: Java Moss - Vesicularia Dubyana - Live Aquarium Plant (5x5sm) C) java FERN (Microsorum Pteropus): there is a guy who sells it here on Amazon, but the price seems a bit high for what you are getting, so I suggest first checking out your local fish store and compare prices. I bought mine at local store. NOTE: if you insist on using artificial plants then I suggest using silk plants (with no metal stems) or if you are at the pet store, make sure they pass the "panty hose test". As mentioned in my 1.5gallon review: Most people will be tempted to put in decorations, plants, etc into this tank and specific to Bettas, almost all of them will tear Betta fins or worse. Bring some panty hose with you to the pet store where you are thinking of buying your fixtures and if it easily catches and/or shreds the hose, it's probably not for this tank + Betta. 2) HEATER: If you are intending this tank for a Betta, then a heater is a must have. This is this one I am using in this tank: "Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas" and reviewed here: Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas and Bowls up to 5 gal 3) PROPER FILTER with proper inline filter products: As mentioned before, the Azoo Mignon 60 filter but that too needs a little work. I added the following products: A) Aqua Clear Biomax 20: Aquaclear 20-Gallon Biomax which provides a massive surface area for "good" beneficial bacteria to culture and grow on. If you get the suggested filter, stick with Biomax 20 because I suspect anything larger won't fit in the filter chamber. B) Aqua clear sponge insert: Aquaclear 20-Gallon Foam Inserts, 3-Pack This higher quality sponge provides decent mechanical filtration i.e. traps all the big crap and junk from returning back into the tank and will provide some substrate for beneficial bacteria (not nearly as good as the Biomax though) If I have time, I will upload more recent photos of the 3 gallon setup with a mix of live and silk plants. The tank looks quite good once "pimped" out and the water chemistry with usual water changes has been rock solid stable. Sushi is apparently very happy in the larger volume of water and is extremely bright and fins just look outstanding. I've received many compliments on this setup from family and friends who have come over. This is small enough to make a very attractive accent piece almost anywhere (don't recommend in direct sunlit areas). I still have the 1.5 gallon tank setup with no fish in it. I use it as an emergency hospital tank (hope I never need it for that purpose) but mostly just a place where Sushi is put when I'm doing the monthly thorough tear down clean of his main 3 gallon tank (remember this tank even with filter will require weekly water changes). BOTTOM LINE: If you intend just to buy this as is and not put in the upgrades, I can't recommend this tank at all. However, if you are willing to upgrade and you are looking for a small footprint aquarium and can live with the (likely) bowed top you are going to get, then this becomes a STRONG BUY recommendation. I know this was very long, but I hope it helps you. If you are willing to put in some extra money, I think most will be quite happy with this tank. If anyone has any questions, feel free to shoot them at me, I will try to get back to you if I notice them.

Impressed so far
For the price, I wasn't expecting the sun and the moon, and after reading other reviews I went in expecting the filter to be pretty sub-par. I had been shopping around for a more ideal aquarium for my betta that was in a shape I liked in a 3 gallon range, and didn't see many options. I was a little concerned getting the tank shipped and possibly cracking, but it arrived perfectly fine. It was in a box in a box :) I just got it set up and I am pleased so far. I like the size- its just right for me! I feel much happier having my betta in a 3 gal tank rather than a 1 gal, and I think he agrees. I really like the cube shape, and that the edges are rounded. Feeling it, you can tell its cheap plastic, but the look of it is nice, particularly in the dark with the light on. It looks like a glass tank. I imagine the main difficulty will be in treating it gently to keep it scratch-free. I was also able to carry it from the kitchen to my room with it mostly full though its a little heavy. The bottom base is also cheap plastic which is not flat across the bottom which makes carrying a little awkward, but it held up fine. The light seems quite nice, I appreciate there is a on/off switch on it (my other tank came with a light that did not have one.) The filter works ok as far as I can tell- there was nothing in the way of pictures or instructions, but it was only a few pieces and I figured it out. I wasn't sure how high it needed to be placed compared to the water line, I may fiddle with that more later. The current seems like it may be a little strong but just around where the water dumps in, but I can see if I can modify that or just get a different filter- it seems like there are other good options that aren't very expensive. I have no idea which way you are supposed to face the filter, or if that even matters. I'm guessing probably not. As for noise, it makes a soft buzz and some light water/bubble noise. It does bubble up at the back which can kind of push against the lid making a clacking noise as it moves up and down. It seems like you can kind of feel out an ideal height to minimize noise and current. I have mine placed so the spout is around 3/4 inch above the water line. Several people had commented it is easy to drop the lid in the bowl. I've been careful so far and have not had a problem. I actually kinda like how tightly the lid rests against the top. I also really like that there is a small feeding hole, and at the back sections cut out for the light and filter, so you shouldn't have to take the lid off very often. The filter area is big enough you can substitute most any small filter if you prefer a different one. I think the lid is a great shape to be practical, and tries to be an unobtrusive as possible. I don't like the tanks that have the huge hood on them. I would recommend people consider this setup primarily for the tank and light, which I think its still a decent deal price-wise. I'm considering looking into adding a ghost shrimp or mystery snail now that I have a little more space. UPDATE: I've had the tank about 5 days now. After some messing with the filter, the current still seems stronger than the betta likes. I've seen him swim under it, and it pushes him down. He seemed kind of restless too, or rests on plants oddly. Someone at the pet store just suggested to tie a knot in the tube- I ended up kinking it and tieing it with a twist-tie, and that has worked wonderfully. I've cut the output rate by about half. I would say just be careful not to cut it back too much, or if the water level goes down it will stop coming out at all. As for the filter's effectiveness, I don't really know if its doing much or not, but at least its aerating the water. With my tank setup there shouldn't be a really high level of waste. I may still go with a better filter in the long run, the one recommended by another post seems really good and not expensive, but this one seems sufficient for now. My tank now also has a ghost shrimp and a blue mystery snail. There was some dissent with the betta at first, but now they seem to be getting along for the most part. I was surprised, the ghost shrimp really held his own- I picked a fairly large one, but figured if the betta wanted to he could still take him apart. The betta has been poking at him occasionally, but no harm done. I added some more plants which really helped since the ghost shrimp hides unseen by the betta most of the time. I would recommend these companions for the tank- it is really too small to consider other fish. Depending on your betta's personality and level of aggression, it may not get along with the shrimp, but it may so you just have to try with the knowledge the shrimp may not make it. I wouldn't want more than 1-2 shrimp in there so he's not feeling stressed seeing them all the time. So I'd say don't go overboard. You also shouldn't get more than 1 snail for this size tank. If you do decide to add companions, particularly with the shrimp make sure there is enough plants and other places for him to hide so he doesn't constantly have to contend with the betta. If you want to ensure the best care for the snail, do something to make sure there is good enough calcium levels for him. This can be as simple as putting in a cuttlefish bone, some seashells, or adding some calcium supplement to the water. I actually took a bit of screen and cut it to fit on the bottom of the lid to prevent possible snail escape. I don't know how necessary this is since it'd probably be hard for him to get up past the filter and there isn't that much open area on the lid, but I figure better safe than sorry. The tank is a little cloudy now, but I was experimenting with foods for the shrimp and snail, and they weren't eating the algae wafer right away. I know generally they eat scraps, but there's not much scrap with just one betta if its food he likes. My betta seems a lot more active now than he was in the old 1 gal bowl. While larger tanks are always preferable, this seems like a great size if you don't want to go too big.
