What is it with all the posts saying 5 gallons is minimum for betta? This bad info needs to be squashed. If these betta police think this is not appropriate they need to step back and analyze their thinking process. If the inbreeding to get large fins which make it near impossible for a betta to swim is ethical, providing a 3 gallon tank that would require a betta to swim for minutes to reach the other side is ethical also…..

I have owned this tank for several months. After I set it up and got it properly cycled, I bought a betta from Petco. He was looking a bit rough, and was not very large. Today he is THRIVING. This IS enough space/water for a single betta in my opinion. My fish's fins are so gorgeous now! He repeatedly builds bubble nests, so I think he is happy. I do change 1.5--2 gals every week or two. If you keep this tank up--keep it clean and the water changed regularly, your betta can thrive in it. No affiliation with Fluval. Just my experience.

Have been in the hobby for 20+ years; recently picked a couple of these up. This is the easiest, most well built betta-kit on the market. Really great build quality, easy to service system and most importantly, a silent pump that is adjustable in a positive way for betta. For anyone thinking this is too small, I urge you to research how betta are bred and how a system like this is optimal. Thanks for a great product.

Kept tropical fish years ago in a heavily planted co2 enriched soft water aquarium, looking back the setup and maintenance costs were eye watering!

I’ve had this tank for exactly one year and my betta, Karma, he is still thriving and loving it! I’ve had a hard time finding the exact same filter pad that came in the kit so I had to cut a larger off brand pad that would allow the same water flow

I have the regular 2.6 fluval spec that I’ve kept around 5 bettas in the past 6 years. My original boy Rage Mage lived the remainder of his life in it when I first got it. He was 3 and thrived in it until he was 5 with a small colony of red cherry shrimp and live plants. My next 3 bettas didn’t live as long as Rage. A year to a year and a half tops. I’m thinking of upgrading to this tank.

I think the entire Betta keeping world would be happy if you would create a 5 Gallon model. Most are hesitant to use anything less than 5 gallons. Let us know when it's ready!

I have two Fluval Flex 15 gallon tanks. One Betta per tank along with a few tetras. Cardinals in one and Pristellas in the other one. I purchased Fluval’s Betta tank and am in the cycling stage now. The heater that came with the tank didn’t work. Temp stayed at 70 which is too cold. I bought another heater and that wasn’t good either. My third try was successful tho. Can’t wait to find a little Betta buddy to put in it. Of course I want the 32 gallon flex, lol.

Setup is slick, one of the better AIO, my biggest concern is that I would like to see this in a 5 gallon plus size. Otherwise I would use this strictly as a shrimp tank. Thank you from NYC

Good informative look at this aquarium. I purchased one last month and it was good to see assembly, the reason for presenting the features chosen. I'm anxious to get mine set-up now...which will be as soon as I get my 15gal Flex's up and running :)

Thank you for the insight on this product. Been a long time user of Hagen / Fluval products and just made the decision to purchase it. Hoping it will suffice a betta for a long period of time and sit on my desk at work without issues.. A couple reviews here on YouTube have been mixed. Some good, some bad. Hoping to plant with some non demanding light species. You’ve got another subscriber 👍

A great 👍 advert for Fluval products you can choose from to suit your requirements regarding your Betta tank. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great video Eric - thanks! This is going to look great on my night table! (PS: I had a conundrum once but the band broke up so I sold it -LOL)

Hi, i recently got this kit and i love it so far. However I just had a question regarding the diffusion chamber. It is all fully plugged in and filled with water, yet there seems to be no water coming out at the top (like how yours looks at 8:12 in the video). I was wondering how to fix this? The pump is fully on the "+" side and the polyfoam pad is also inside. If anyone knows the fix I will love to hear it!

[aquadiaryofficial]

Eventhough tank size is little smaller than 5 gallon, this very nice readymade tank setup I seen in recent days!

[randisney]

How much will the completed tank weigh (with water, substrate etc)? I want to be sure to get a stand capable of safely holding the weight. Thanks!

[cybercheco]

I've been testing the thermostat/heater and it doesn't seem to be able to control the water temperature accurately. I'm using a Meater bluetooth thermometer as well as other thermal strips and both agree that the water is over 82F. Meanwhile the heater keeps warming up. At some point my betta would just be swimming next to the water intake into the filtration compartment. I have had to install an aftermarket thermostat to control the heater. I've read negative comments about the heater individually and with the P25 model as well.

[stevenhaller]

That diffusion filter looks like it would fit in my Fluval spec 5 gallon tank for my Betta. Do you sell the diffusion filter separately?

[notoriouszak]

Love the tank. But was wondering which exact item to get for maintenance. Which carbon insert and biomax insert do I get for this specific aquarium. Or does size not matter? Thanks

[dpaynter]

Could you help me and advise where I can find a replacement tank for a Fluval Edge 6 gallon I cracked mine.
Thanks
