MINI BOW 1 JUNIOR AQUARIUM KIT - TINY TEAL

This product is great for housing a betta. I have three of these in red, purple, and black and im going to buy the teal to house my new betta, Waffle. These are great betta tanks, but dont house any other kind of fish in it. In al my tanks, I have two plants, a small round cichlid stone, and a decoration. My bettas love them. Its the perfect size for a betta. THe air pump is a piece of garbage though if you're housing a betta i would recommend tossing it. This product is great for bettas and I would recommend it to any betta owner!

I recently bought the Mini Bow Aquarium one gallon kit for my apartment. It now houses my red Betta named Anubis. For the first few days everything went swimmingly well with my aquarium. That is up until yesterday when I came home to see that the air pump was nothing but a piece of garbage (i.e died on me while I was away at work). So now Anubis' home is without a pump but that may be for the best since Bettas do prefer to be in calm waters. Besides it was a pain in the rear end to try to set up the pump properly so the water would not spill out of the tank (which I learned the hard way). Because I had bought a plastic strip thermometer for the tank, I have noticed that when the lamp is on, it does heat up the water a couple of degrees. For a Betta that is great because Bettas do need to be in 72 to 80 degree temperature water. I turn off the lamp at night but the temp only drops down to 72 from 74 during the night. The aquarium does not come with any gravel or decorations. A 2 pound bag of gravel is just fine. As for the decorations, just watch what you buy due to space. I have a little cave in my tank which took up quite a bit of room but thankfully Anubis can swim thru it to get to the other side of the tank. Still my Betta has more room in this tank than he would in a regular fish bowl. For Bettas, the Mini Bow aquarium is fine but I can barely recommend the tank for any Betta enthusiast or new Betta owners.

I love the color teal, this teal is very vivid & beautiful. The aquarium arrived on time, was quick & easy to setup, & we love it. Since it does not have a filtration system, I would recommend it for a Betta only. But that is just my opinion. It is getting harder & harder to find these mini-bow aquarium's....so if you want one...I would act quickly. They also come in 2.5 gallon & 5 gallon....but not in teal. Those are red, black, & blue I believe. Walmart carries them, but is often out of stock. These here are priced as cheap, or cheaper than Walmart. All you need is a gallon of spring water, some water treatment for Betta's (use half the recommended amount if using the pre-filtered gallon of spring water). The gallon costs less than a dollar at Walmart & the Betta water treatment can be found at Walmart or Pets Mart. One very small plant, I found several different ones at Pets Mart in a variety of colors for 99 cents each. A pound or even a little less than a pound of rocks or polished marble stones, & a small temparature strip to stick on the side of the tank. Most importantly a 10 watt heater for tanks 10 gallons or smaller made by Aqueon that can also be found at Pets Mart for $15 bucks. It gets a little cold for them in the winter & I have had some die in the past. They are tropical fish, & like the heat. The heater will keep the water at a constant 78 degrees & requires no adjusting. I got some color enhancing Betta pellets & also some bloodworm flakes that I can crumble up while the Betta is young & his mouth is still small. This also adds a little variety to their diet, making them more colorful & helping them to live longer.Last but not least, a Betta of your choice. This tank is so small it will fit virtually anywhere. A desk, a dresser, a bathroom counter, an end table etc. We like ours so much, we have ordered a 2nd to house another Betta we just purchased!
