Aquaculture 10 Empty Aquarium

This was mailed and delivered very fast. It was in great condition! The only concern I that the box it was shipped in said nothing about it being fragile. It was in a box inside a box and it was sliding around the whole time. Something bad could've happened but mine was in perfect condition.

I have 2 hamsters and I bought one of these for each on of them. It's a great living space for them and much much better than any kind of cage that I have had for them and it is afordable! Although you do need to make sure you get a lid for it (comes between $8-$12). Not to mention even smaller dwarf hamsters can happily live in it too!

I have purchased this aquarium several times for different types of animal everything from reptiles, to fish, to small animals and have never had any problem from these tanks. No leaks, no cracks, and this product works well with the Pet Select 10-Gallon Deluxe Screen Cover also sold by walmart.

After discovering cages are a bad option for gerbils due to chewing, digging, and burrowing - I needed a quick fix as I'd ended up with a gerbil that was being picked on in the pet store. Most places want double the price of this for a ten gallon, or 50 or more for a 20 gallon. I needed a tank and pronto. I had remembered seeing a ten gallon at Wal Mart a few times and decided to give it a look-see. The price was great - half the price of what many places want for a tank of the same size. I bought the tank and a topper (Wal Mart carriers a screen cover that fits perfectly with the tank and locks in place) and set it up with bedding, hide aways, and cardboard. Plopped in gerbil and waited. He loved it and if he could, he'd give it a five star review. It's great for lone gerbils if you have a loner for any reason (they do better in pairs, but sometimes, we end up with lone ones) as the size is fine for one gerbil. It can fit two, but you might have to upgrade once they reach maturity to a 15 gallon. However, this one will work if they're young and you made the same mistake I did (buying a cage first). The tank has held up fine with a rodent and the topper hasn't popped off on its own yet. My only complaint is the way the sides are held together with some type of glue (someone who knows more about fish than I do might know what it's called) that some rodents might chew on and it was VERY hard for me to fit a water bottle (even the ones made for aquariums) on the side with the screen topper on it. I ended up having to use the bottle from the cage and tying it up with velcro and bread ties. I have two of these now and will be buying more for future rodents. It's a good starter tank for mice, gerbil, and hamster owners. It's not big enough for most pairs or bigger rodents, however. I will be buying a 20 gallon in the next few weeks as I will be split tanking my gerbils and hoping the introduction works. 10 gallons is said to be okay for two, but I think it seems it would be a bit cramped. For rats and guinea pigs, just get a decent sized cage.

Have had it for about 2 weeks. Overall a great aquarium for the price. I had this shipped to me and it arrived without any problems. There were a few scratches (from production) on the glass at the corners but not too noticable. This is just a cheap and inexpensive tank, so I wasn't expecting it to be perfect. It is exactly what I needed and holds water fine. I have it filled to the top. The other reviews state not to completely fill it or it will break. If you just follow simple rules that all aquariums require: tank must be level, not carried or moved unless empty, must be carried while supporting the bottom, then you won't have any problems. I purchased a glass versa top for it from another retailer. I will be setting it up as a saltwater tank for seahorses.
