Review on 🐠 Tetra Aquarium 20 Gallon Fish Tank Kit: Illuminated LED Lighting & Decor Included by John Clark

I had to change the filter at the end. He died just a few weeks later. AQ Advisor doesn't like this filter anyway. The lid didn't hold up at first but I put a book on it and after a while it got better and it's not good. There is a feeding hole at the top which is a nice feature except if like me you have a rooster, frog or whatever that tends to jump out of the hole at the top. I kept the water level a bit low to prevent this from happening. Functionally, that's 19 gallons for me. The heating is reliable. I had no problems with that. No matter how uncomfortable it is, and this tank is next to a drafty window, a heater can handle it. Plastic plants are good and if you want them, these are all the plants you need. They don't have bad edges for delicate bettas. But live plants are much more suitable for the aquarium and greatly facilitate care. I update them. Overall the tank is good, but the accessories aren't great and I'd refuse fake plants in a heartbeat if I had to do it again. I'm happy with this aquarium, but I'm not sure I would buy it again. If you choose this one you will need gravel and for a tropical aquarium SafeStart, a water conditioner and an API test kit. If this is your first aquarium, pay attention to the nitrogen cycle. Makes a lot easier. (TLDR, enter a full bottle of Tetra Aquarium Safe Start Bacteria for Aquariums, 3.38 oz, the day after the aquarium is set up and follow the directions on the bottle for a cycle with no fish or with two small fish.) Will everything else you need is included. .
