This aquarium kit is perfect for small or unused spaces: a desk, dresser,
or even on top of the old file cabinet that hasn’t been touched in years.
The tank is made of clear, high-quality plastic, and makes for a perfect Betta home.
It also features a curved edge design, and sits upon a raised black base.
Furthermore, the removeable plastic lid allows for easy feeding and cleaning.
Please Note: Fish and gravel not included.
Integrated Internal Filter:
Our 1.5 Gallon Betta Tank Kits come with a specifically designed internal filter that utilizes
biological, mechanical, and chemical filtration to keep the water clean and crystal-clear.
Each filter also comes with a coarse sponge and a carbon media cartridge.
Replacement carbon media cartridges available for sale: BT1A, BT1A3, BT1A6.
Power the internal filter by plugging into included LED light fixture.
The filter does not have its own power cord for a wall outlet.
LED Light:
The NuWave Betta Tank Kit also comes with a fully integrated, low voltage, utra-bright white Led light
that’s embed in the lid for maximum viewing and visibility.
The light features an on/off switch that’s separate from the internal filter.
In other words, the filter will continue to run, whether the light is on or off.

I use this as a quarantine tank for my betta fish.I don’t recommend a fish living in this permanently, but I do like the simplicity of it!

I would not use it for goldfish or anything larger than a guppy.

Love the design of this tank. I use for my beta fish. He loves it but did not like the filter so I removed it. I thought the filter was nice and quiet and did not disturb the water much, but he seemed afraid of it, stopped eating. I still think the tank is great. The light is nice. It’s all very easy to use and clean. I actually bought a second one so I can change and clean it. He is happy again.

Got this little tank for my Betta, Swim Shady. He's on my desk at work or I'd have him in a 5gal tank. When I first received this tank, the filter did not work. Wouldn't turn on, gave no indication that it was even trying to work. Contacted Amazon and they expedited me a new set. Connected that filter and it works perfectly. I'll probably look into a tighter foam piece for the filter the slow down the flow just a bit but Swim Shady seems to like it! He's got real plants in this tank vs his old one and the day I moved him over to this one he built a bubble nest!I am using a 5w heater in this tank as well and tho it doesn't have a temperature pre-set option, it has kept the tank at a consistent 77-78 degrees Fahrenheit. The LED light is really nice and keeps the tank looking bright and happy.The filter connects through the light and I worried that the switch for the light would turn off the filter as well but it doesn't! Filter stays on as long as it's plugged in which is nice. I turn it off for a minute or two every day to feed him so his food isn't swept away too quickly.Glad the customer service was great and Swim can now enjoy his new home!UPDATE:RIP Swim Shady. He lived a full life. I redid this tank for my new Betta, Mackerelmore. He loves it as much as Swim Shady did. Swim Shady's fins were massively torn because he liked sitting underneath the filter and it was too strong. I ended up buying API 30ppi filtration foam to slow the filter. It didn't do much to slow the flow so I burrowed out what is essentially a cap of foam that sits on the bottom of the filter to protect Betta fins (you can see this in my second photo). This helped tremendously. Also, positioning the filter all the way to one side and as high as possible will help Bettas swim comfortably.Looking forward to a good, long while with Mackerelmore.

The tank is perfect for both my desktop and Betta. The filter output is not too strong for the Betta. The Betta is able to rest on the Amazon Sword leaves, as well as in different locations around the tank. (Others here have posted how to reduce the filter output if needed.) I added a Hagan Marina reversible aquarium background. I did not use the adhesive sealer, as I prefer a more subdued background. I added one Amazon Sword, one Marimo moss ball, gravel and a few rocks for the in tank decoration. The pump is essentially silent. You have to really pay attention when all else is quiet to hear it. That is a huge plus for me. The plastic is crystal clear and I love the rounded edges, but it is plastic so I'll need to be careful not to scratch it.The dark rocks are a few from the ones I had in the base of the Betta's old bowl. After moving the Betta to a cup, I stirred around the old water and rocks vigorously, let the silt settle, and then poured the water in the new tank to provide a starter for the beneficial nitrifying bacteria. After a while I'll add some ghost shrimp and possibly five or six Ember Tetras. (I know the Tetras are pushing it, especially since the tank doesn't have an under gravel filter to increase the nitrifying bacteria colony. But my Betta seems to be a woos, so I may try it and pull them if the chemistry goes awry).The only thing negative I have to say about the unit is I wish the cord that goes from the pump to the light was twelve inches longer. That would give me ultimate flexibility in positioning the pump. But I can make it longer if I want and it works fine for the decor I'm using now, so it's not a big deal. I'm not worried about finding a replacement filter. On tiny tanks like this I generally don't use the filter that comes with it or I modify the filter so I replace only half the filter at a time. Of course I have to change out the filter halves more often, but since I often push the capacity of a tank this allows me to keep more of the benefit of the nitrifying bacteria that colonizes the filter. Even if you don't want to go to this trouble, the filter has a sponge pre-filter that comes before the main filter that holds the activated charcoal. Just don't rinse out the sponge at the same time you change the main filter and you'll keep the a solid colony of the beneficial bacteria anyway.UPDATE: A month or two after setup, I added a small albino plecostomus (~1"), two ghost shrimp (~1" each), and one cherry red shrimp (~1/3"). I have not changed my feeding routine of two Betta pellets three times a day, with an occasional third pellet added. All are thriving. The shrimp have all molted at least once. The tank is algae free. The bottom is free of visible detritus. The Amazon Sword put out a rhizome, which I anchored in the opposite back corner. The sprout is now a little more than half the height of the aquarium. I couldn't be more pleased.
