I got this tank with a betta in mind, and it works perfectly for that purpose. I have no complaints at all about the tank itself--but I do want to give some warnings. A goldfish needs more along the lines of 10 gallons per fish, not 2.65. A betta however will be just fine in this tank. The problem with most fish kits is that they are never big enough for the fish they're made for. Goldfish also need way more filtration, and I will warn you that the filter that comes with this kit is pretty much useless. However, anyone looking for a good, simple betta tank should do absolutely great with this one. Although I haven't tried it myself, the 1.77 gallon variety of this tank would probably be fine too. I'd also recommend getting your own gravel and plant, the gravel is far too cheap and rough, and the silk plant had strings coming off of it that would either float to the top or come dangerously close to getting tangled onto my fish.This review seems incredibly negative, but believe me, I love the tank and it deserves the four stars--it's just the premise of the kit and the bundled accessories that aren't worth your time. I like it far better than any other similar plastic tanks, and betta kits are the smallest pieces of junk ever. With a little extra effort, you will have no problems keeping a smaller individual fish in this tank. Just please don't try to cram a goldfish into this thing.
