Not worth it
Got this tank to house my betta because it had a filter on it and could aerate the water better and used it for about 7 months. The whisper 3i filter couldn't keep up with the bioload of 1 fish and after a few months only had a trickle of water. The test paramenters of this tank never leveled off either. Additionally the air pump was very loud and stopped working after about a month. I also had to buy a valve to prevent the water from getting into the pump. My last frutration was that the top was always covered with drops of water and it wasnot secure at all. My very bad cat could knock the top off with one swipe of his paw so eventually I had to tape the top into place. I think as a starter tank just spend the extra 20$ and get yourself a 5 gallon. Then you could even have a few other fish in the tank too!!
 
Great starting tank for Betta fish.
I bought this tank at PetSmart about a week ago, and so far I'm impressed. The kit includes the Whisper 3i in-tank filter, a couple of bio filter replacement cartridges, tubing, pump, LED light, and two plastic plants that can be attached on a grid like system that runs along the bottom of the tank (there are 8 possible positions). It doesn't come with water treatment, gravel, or food, but it does have a convenient storage shelf that pulls out from the bottom for these items.

Before this tank, I had my Betta in a small Marina cube, which only held a half Liter of water. Two weeks later, I decided to upgrade to this kit. After a day of adjustment, my fish really began to enjoy his new home and has since built a bubble nest. The LED can swivel from side to side and adjust up or down, so I like to angle it towards the filter in the back corner. This allows enough light to illuminate the tank nicely, but avoids exposing my Betta to direct bright light when I have it on. The light itself it great. Using LEDs means very little electricity usage, as well as almost no heat output. The switch is located on the side, so it's easily turned on and off. My only complaint is that the light tends to slide down to a certain point when you raise it all the way up. Not a big deal, but something to note.

The filter has kept the water nice and clear so far. It's easily attached anywhere on the tank via two suction cups on the back end. The top lid of the tank has two small holes on either side for the hose, as well as a large hole for easy grabbing. The two holes are great if you'd like to add a small water heater along with your filter. The Whisper 3i does create a fairly noticeable current in a tank this small, something my Betta did not enjoy at first as they prefer still water. After some adjustment of the plants in the tank and raising it a little higher above water level, the current was reduced enough to not really bother him. I've also placed a small hut in the tank where he can hide and get out of the current if he chooses to do so (which I recommend). I would also recommend placing the plants near or around the filter intake, so your fish won't be tempted to swim around it and get pulled by the pump. A Betta is far to large to get stuck, but it can damage his fins if he's pulled to hard.

The plastic plants are very nice looking, but were somewhat on the hard side. I would keep an eye and make sure your fish doesn't injure his fins grazing against them. So far, mine hasn't had any issues, but it's something to take note of, especially for Bettas.

Overall, for the money you won't find a better tank for a small fish or Betta.
 
Good starter kit for kids.
My son is 10 years old and wanted a goldfish for Christmas. Well, before we could get a goldfish, we had to get something to put it into. This 1.5 gal tank, which is made from acrylic was a good choice for my son to start with. He now has two goldfish and they are doing very well. He really likes his tank set-up in his bedroom.
 
what you see is not what you get
We got this for our daughter for Christmas to have 2 tiny fish. The tank isn't even big enough for the filter to fit inside it. There is no opening in the top for a heater to be plugged in. Generally, it is a disappointment. It doesn't look at all good with the filter and the heater laying in diagonally and the lid propped open. Go with a different choice. The picture that is on the box is NOT what you will have.
 
Great for African Dwarf Frogs
I had always wanted a small, but attractive, aquarium for my desk. I came across this one on Petsuppliesfishworld and thought, this is it! It works great with African Dwarf Frogs, I bought two and there is plenty of room for them and their plants. The initial investment ran me about $40 total which included food, a small net, the plant, rocks, water conditioner, etc. I did find mine at Petsmart, but there are more colors/sizes and a lot of sale prices through Petsuppliesfishworld that were comparable. I loved the light because its made of LEDs and does not get hot. I'm rather paranoid about hot light bulbs and plastic.
