These tanks are a bit small, Was wondering how you heat the water first thing to 80 F also seems the holes on bottom would clog after awhile

OWLISNOTHERE - 6 years ago

This tank is not safe

Stephanie Rudisill - 6 years ago

I think if you bought this and put water plants and moss on the first two levels and like shrimp it would be safe for a betta. The plants would add extra filtration too.

THIS TANK KILLED TWO OF MY BETTAS AND ONE IS IN AWFUL SHAPE!!! THE FILTER IS TOO STRONG EVEN ON THE LOWEST SETTING!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS TANK NOT ONE BIT!!!!

Blake Martin - 6 years ago

Dennis Younger - 7 years ago

too bad you mumbled....

Melissa Jekic - 7 years ago

Is this a self cleaning tank? So
I don't have to take the fish
Out and change the water clean the gravel
And plants and all
That???

Hickster58 - 7 years ago

Melissa Jekic All tanks need to be cleaned at least once a month, at about 20% water change.

Ajplayer1212 articwolf - 7 years ago

This kills fish because they are sucked under

Kinda Blake - 7 years ago

Do not add bettas!! Babies may be all right but bettas need a 2.5 GALLON TANK ATLEAST! Please do not put them in there.

Wish Martinez - 7 years ago

If it was bigger i would buy it for sure. my bettas like to swim. they would be crammed in their.

Mic Micson - 8 years ago

Hi, Hick,

I am looking for Aqueon Kit Betta Falls for Aquarium, Black ONLY (not three glass aquariums). Because black aquarium had been cracked. So, do you know where to find ONLY black aquarium? Thanks.

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

+Mic Micson Petco/smart shuld have them, but I do not recommend this tank

SAMTECH X - 8 years ago

Brandon Russell - 7 years ago

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

swaggg master - 7 years ago

Hickster58 yeah a betta (adult or small)should have a 2.5 (at least)gallon tank but preferably more

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

Not in any way!!! way too small, even for bettas in my opinion!

can I use 100v outlet?

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

+Kozo Maeda No idea, sorry

Amanda Harker - 9 years ago

It's a nice looking tank but it's way too small. I wouldn't keep any Bettas in it, it would be better if it was once piece. There's simply not enough room for a proper environment, Bettas like to hide behind things and when given enough space they also show very vibrate personalities. My first Betta, Ben, was really curious he loved having the orniments changed weekly, he'd swim to the front of the tank when I went into the room, and he developed a cheeky habit of jumping at my fingers at feeding time. Betta are quite intelligent, more so than schooling fish (I've got anther tropical tank with a couple of different schooling fish) and yet so many people don't give them a chance to express it because they're kept in tanks which are too small and often boring. Do your fish a favor and buy them a bigger tank, change the decorations often, and keep them nice and warm, and they'll be a lot more active.

taskmasterblaster - 9 years ago

People need to understand that just because Bettas can survive in less water than other tropical fish does not mean they enjoy having only enough room to hover on the spot. 5 gallon minimum for any small fish people, seriously.

OWLISNOTHERE - 6 years ago

taskmasterblaster Betta fish don't swim to good in fast flowing water and this tank is fast flowing water so.... Dont get this tank

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

I agree, but people like to believe that companies are in the business to help the consumer/animals, but really their in it just for the $, sadly.

This tank SUCKS. I just came home from the mall. ( Gone 2 hours ) and the filter sucked up my Beta from the back tank. I panicked and unplugged the tank, and removed him. He lost half of his fin and his tail is RIPPED. Kopitar's new name is Nemo. Thanks tank, you almost killed my baby.
Don't get me started on the first tank. My baby I've had for 3 months now, Tristan, is low in health due to fin rot, which I cured a week or so ago. He was getting caught in the filter, and I had to turn it off. He is okay now that it is off.
This is a good tank without the filter/waterfall feature. But with it, it is a DEATHTRAP! Do not buy this tank!

Emik23 - 6 years ago

r this morning I woke up to two of my bettas dead and now the one that survived is in AWFUL shape!! He lays at the bottom of the tank and will not move.

r - 8 years ago

+Olav Øverland both died

darling d - 8 years ago

agree

Olav Øverland - 8 years ago

Is he still alive?

Cassandra dionne - 9 years ago

Is it plastic or glass ?

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

your welcome:)

Cassandra dionne - 9 years ago

Thanks

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

I believe plastic, but I don't have the tank anymore, as I do not like how small each compartment is.

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

@ Liz Roberts
Yeah, I wish it came in a bigger size too, then it would be perfect. For babies it may be okay. Thanks for watching/commenting:)

r - 7 years ago

+Paige Hunter i did and it sucked 2 of them up

Paige Hunter - 7 years ago

You have to set the flow to the lowest setting for bettas. Any other fish can have an increased filter speed

darling d - 8 years ago

+tragi bean I had to take the lids of so the flow wouldn't rip my betta apart. will be setting back up old tank and sticking to one betta.

r - 9 years ago

DO NOT USE THE TANK! IT KILLED ONE OF MINE, AND RIPPED MY OTHER'S TAIL AND FIN! AND ITS DANGEROUS!

Liz Roberts - 9 years ago

I really like this setup although I wish it came in a larger size. (.4 gallons is kinda small for adult bettas) However I feel you add a heater at the bottom you could get baby bettas from Petco and this would be good! It's convenient as well how you can adjust the flow of the water. Thanks for the video.

Russia CCCP - 9 years ago

So you are transferring bettas from cups to a larger cup? This tank is horrible.

r - 9 years ago

Beta Falls Can KISS MY ASS. #Deathtrap

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

I completely agree, A 5 gallon tank, like the spec V, is a lot nicer for the betta than the betta falls, and its a lot more customizable as well

Russia CCCP - 9 years ago

My sister wants to get one and I'm trying to convince her not to...it's just too small. My betta looks very happy in my Fluval Spec V, and it's obviously quite big compared to his original cup.

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

Thanks for watching. Pretty much the concept of this tank. If each compartment was bigger, it would be a lot better tank.

IMUNNORMALXD - 9 years ago

1) what are they made of
2) what would you recommend? Gravel, sand or glass pebbles
3) how many liters does the smallest compartment hold

MrBetta - 9 years ago

Riot*

MrBetta - 9 years ago

Also I think if I bought it I would use the bottom part for one like a mini pond but I wouldn't do that as it's still to small cuz I think it holds under 2 gallons all together which is still not enough tp in my eyes they need at least 2.5 gallons but I wouldn't do that I would only out one in this tank if my house was in firmer and I wanted to save my Betta and it was the only container but I would rather put one in a fish bowl than this but I also wouldn't put one in a fish bowl cuz that's cruel and I think if my house was on fire I'll put it in a bucket alonfpg with my other fish (not bettas) I have 3 guppies 1 bristlenose bottom feeder 4 harlequins 2 Kahului loaches and 3 orange tetras all in that bucket but they are in a 60 liter tank at the moment which is perfect I would only buy one more maybe 2 smaller or a fraction larger that's it I WANT TO START A ROIT ABOUT BETTA ABUSE

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

So true

MrBetta - 9 years ago

Yes I think your paying for the design too and also because there is 3 compartments which makes it what they think good but it isnt

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

Yep, I totally agree. For the same money, you can bye a lot bigger tank and make a betta really happy.

MrBetta - 9 years ago

I've seen this before in my local fish shop and they are tiny don't get one they are far to small I would only use it for shrimp but that's it its a waste of money

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

1.) This is a plastic tank
2.) Gravel gives off the best biological filtration traits, but its really up to your own personal taste.
3.) I cant remember off the top of my head, but I believe each compartment is less then half a gallon each, which is too small for any fish! I don't recommend this tank, it looks cool but is not that good for the fish themselves.

Gen X - 9 years ago

I hope one of the big aquarium manufacturers see's this design and makes a much bigger version - I've been looking for a multiple tank setup that cascades like this one does and like the way it curves round, but it's way to small, I have a Fluval Duo 800 in the corner of my dining room which will soon be replaced with Fluval Fresh 90 as I like the modern aquarium look. Excellent eyecatching design and would definitely buy one only if it were available in a much bigger size :-)

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

+Gen X Yes I completely agree, it would be awesome to see a tank like this in a much larger size. Thanks for watching/commenting:)

How do you keep it heated?

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

You might be able to put a small heater in the black underneath part. Thanks for watching:)

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

I uploaded an update yesturday to this tank, check it out on my channel!

TheBoredGuy97 - 10 years ago

$50 sounds like a lot for 3 small tanks with 1 filter. Great video, but too much money.

MrBetta - 9 years ago

I agree

Hickster58 - 9 years ago

Yeah but this tank is just too small!! you almost might as well keep them in the small containers that stores sell them in, their not much smaller. They really should be in a =t least a gallon or bigger, bigger preferred.

IMUNNORMALXD - 9 years ago

Bettas prefer smaller tanks because they feel more secure and safe

Hickster58 - 10 years ago

Yeah, it is a decent amount of money, I think you also pay for the unique design of the tank, ive seen nothing else like this tank. Hopefully the bettas will enjoy it, even though its small.Thanks for watching:)
