Your Thoughts on Deep Blue Betta 5

[Mr2KiEu]

Nice footprint for a 2.3gal tank but for $50 + tax and shipping I don't think it's worth it. Plus you are going to have to buy a filter and light. Have you considered the Fluval Spec V? The filter is built into the tank and it comes with a LED light. It'll cost you about the same price.

Happily, Amazon corrected whatever the issue was with the price, so I went ahead and ordered it.

Fluval Specs are sooo beautiful, but not having a top really worries me. Seems like some bettas don't have a problem with that, and some end up on the carpet.

The spec does have a top. And petco has them on sale for 60 bucks right now!

Not sure why my previous message got posted twice, or how to delete one of them. Sorry.

My understanding is that you can use the dividers as a top, which is kind of nice since you can cut one to make room for heater and sponge filter cords.

I am super interested to see the set up in person. I have seen pictures of them planted, but not with a betta. Seems optimal dimensions for their natural swimming style. I am undecided on whether it needs a HOB filter due to the length, so I am going to start with a sponge filter and see how it goes.

Just over thirty bucks on Amazon, with tax and shipping included. Whoot!

I love the footprint of this tank. Take out all the dividers for a single betta, and its a perfect home! I am saving up for one. I really hope to get one!
