Me gusto mucho, la luz lez y la bomba funcionan de maravilla, el acrílico venía ya un poco rallado (lo limpié pero aún así se veían las líneas).

The plastic fish aquarium arrived in a timely manner and was competitively priced but it was severely cracked upon arrival so it had to be returned. My granddaughter was very disappointed as the aquarium is small and cute.

the filter stopped working after the first water change which really sucked

I purchased MiniBow, 2.5 gal in 2021. It also comes in 1 & 5 gal, so make sure you order the correct size. In 3 years I have had 3 Betta fish, only 1 was caught near the filter. I average about 1 Betta a year before they die, due to me or life? The bowl is acrylic, and it still looks new, no scratches, so be careful how you clean. The black rim stand is plastic and holds the bowl very well. It’s the water weight that makes it durable. I have a small heater and only use solid deco stones. I noticed the painted stones start peeling and make the water look dirty. Last month after cleaning the filter stopped working. I called Aqueon to see if I could just replace the filter. The rep asked if I had cleaned the fan, nope, didn’t know there was a fan. He waited patiently & explained the filter could be disassembled to access the fan. He gave me directions and I found the fan and it was filthy. I cleaned the fan and filter has been running great for a few days. Time to get another Betta. I suggest if you have issues call Aqueon, the rep (sorry no name) was very helpful and patient. I hope this review helps. After 3 years I recommend the Aqueon MiniBow Aquarium for a small fish. Oh, the small hole at the top of tank is where I drop the food, instead of lifting the lid, never had a Betta jump out.

I started out with a 2 1/2 gallon tank and used it for over two years. This one is exactly like it but twice as big. A five gallon take is still small but I love aquariums and do not have room for a larger one. With its quick water change it is very easy to maintain. It is acrylic, very strong, clear view, no leaks, the filter pump provides strong filtration, and has a very nice overall look. I did learn from my first acrylic tank that you need to be careful how you clean it. Acrylic can be scratched more easily than glass and some cleaning agents can make the surface very hazy. You can google how to clean an acrylic tank and find a lot of information. The filter pump does need to be taken apart and cleaned maybe three or four times a year to keep it running smoothly. It is easy to take out of the tank and disassemble, clean and replace. The pump, when properly cleaned, should last you for years. If your pump stops it is probably because there is a build up of minerals that freezes the motor – that is an easy fix. I have had zero problems, just do not overstock it.

I really love this minibow easy clean tank!! It’s got a sleek look, the filter is pretty quiet, doesn’t cause very much current at all & the original lighting was adequate 🙂
Now for a more in depth overview…
The 5 gallon is great to spoil a betta! Please please don’t put a betta in anything smaller than 2.5 gallons.. I know they can survive but they won’t thrive & with decorations you’re reducing the actual water volume more & more. For example while this is 5 gallons with my plethora of enrichment decorations it actually only took 4 gallons to fill & that was pushing it the water line is almost to the very top lol.
The tank itself while plastic is very sturdy although I didn’t use the bottom stand piece. It gives the tank an extra elevated look for sure but since I was putting it on a small table & I have 3 large dogs I wanted the extra stability of putting it directly on the table.
Also regardless of size you’re gonna need a heater. I live in south Florida but keep my house cold at night. I didn’t realize til I did a lil experiment when soaking my tank decorations just how cold water gets quickly even not near a fan or vent & then it stays cold. You can get one for cheap that auto turns on & off to keep the water at a steady temp (mines so small you can barely see it behind the filter input).
The light on this tank was adequate but it is super basic. I knew this when purchasing & also knew it’s not what I wanted so I replaced it with a 7 inch LED bar for cheap so now I’ve got a dimmable, timeable, color changing light that really elevates the tank imo.
Water changes have never been easier & for people saying the spout is too short to do them… uhm it extends out any basic container can fit. I use a wide lipped 5 gal bucket & even that still works, do I have to tilt it a bit? Yes but it’s still doable & much easier than any water change I’ve ever done in any tank before this so quit complaining. I don’t find the current from the filter to be very strong at all, you can see in my video my silicone plants barely move & my floating diver stays in one spot. So it’s perfectly fine for a betta. My Disco is a cup baby rescue so of course it’s caused him some minor issues the first few days in his new home but he’s already much stronger & in a few more days it’ll be like there’s no current at all for him!
I also found the filter intake to look fairly safe right out the box. It’s completely covered on all sides with pretty tiny slits. Even my betta Disco is a bit on the smaller side & he’d be fine but after some of the review horror stories I put a sponge filter on top of it just as a an extra safety precaution lol. So if you’ve got fish smaller than a betta or shrimp in here I’d suggest doing the same. The cheap & great ones I got that fit almost perfectly were from Amazon (AQUANEAT 6-Pack Pre-Filter Sponge for Aquarium Shrimp Fry Fish Tank Filter 0.6″ Intake, Replacement Foam Cover).

I bought two of the 2.5g tanks. They look nice and they’re fine, just make sure when you’re setting it up you put your water and sand/substrate in first because when I was adding mine and because it was still in suspension and some got stuck in the propeller and stopped working. I didn’t realize what was wrong until I took the cap off.
