New 5 Gal. Hawkeye Tank

[RandomFish]

Wow!! Thanks for posting all these great pics & sharing your review! I've been wondering about this new kit because there aren't any reviews yet. It looks a lot roomier than the 5-gallon Tetra Crescent I have.

Thanks, RandomFish! It DOES appear to be more than 5 gallons, but it isn't. All in all a VERY nice tank that I am VERY happy with!!!!

I ordered the same one but haven't set it up yet. It is so cool to see what you did with yours and that you are happy with it. Great job with the plants and decor! (And I agree, it does appear bigger then 5 gallons.)

I LOVE all those pretty clear marbles on the bottom! <3 Your tank is so pretty! =D
Your betta is SO Handsome!!! <3 His fins are beautiful! <3

So you just order something from walmart online and they take it to your walmart for free? Wow. I really should order off of there!

I know this is a silly question but how much horizontal space does it take up? I'd like a five gallon that doesn't take up as much room. =]

Thank you, Wally!

Actually, right now there is free shipping to your HOME on this!!!! I had to pay state sales tax, but that was it. :)

Per the product description on the site, it is:

Product in Inches (L x W x H): 16.5 x 9.38 x 13.75

So it would take up 16.5 inches. Too much?

To tell the truth, I like it so much I wish I had enough extra cash to get 2 or 3 more just to have on stand-by - LOL!!!! Of course, then I would be thinking about having them sitting there empty & have to get more bettas! :)

Thanks from me too. I just grabbed one of these in case I have to move Tango out of his 16.

Thank you!

I don't think so - it sure doesn't have a Petsmart price!!!

Your tank looks awesome! He looks so tiny in that tank, it looks much bigger than 5 gallons.
