Marineland Portrait Glass LED Aquarium Kit, 5 Gallons, Hidden Filtration

Pump blew within minutes, as others have noted. Not suitable to be sold in the UK. Very disappointed

I was looking forward to having this nano tank, but I did not expect something thats turned out to be TOTALLY UNRELIABLE. the first thing to fail was the LIGHT after about 6 MINUTES and then the WATER PUMP the following day BURNED OUT, , what seems to be a nice bit of kit has turned out to be TOTALY UN RELIABLE but I am not returning the item as I have a spare PUMP and LIGHT, If you are prepared for this well go ahead and buy one, otherwise dont bother.

Bought this a week ago and set it up. At the back there is a plastic wall about 10cm from the rear glass wall of the aquarium. Inside this gap is the pump and filter media and lots of unused space. The filter media provided is poor in term of volume so buy more to fill the gap at the back of the aquarium. The pump is fiddly to install and I could not apply enough pressure to get the suction pad to hold the pump down which I think then resulted in a noisy vibration from it or the tubes hitting the aquarium. I replaced the overhead light with something that had a basic timer as the light supplied was also weak. This has the space of a large goldfish bowl in a rectangular shape essentially. You can only put a couple of fish inside and the flow rate is likely to be a problem for most fish. Overall a nice idea but some design flaws.

both the pump and light broke within minutes of plugging in. when trying to add my own same sized pump the back panel popped out of its glue. all in all not made well at all biggest waste of money ever. if your buying don’t expect it to work about all it does is hold water.

Nice tank wrong equipment for the UK, from what I can work out this product is manufactured in China and stored in America with Amazon, all the equipment such as pump ,lighting show they have American tye plug fittings so I bought 2 adapter plugs thinking this would solve the problem, unfortunately the UK is a different power input subsequently blowing the the pump and the lightning I had to buy new of each .I do take some of the blame for assuming the transformers would have been changed for UK and did not check it was a profitable week for Amazon

This fish tank looked fantastic. However that's the only good thing about it. Within a week the air pump for the filter packed up and the lights didn't even last that long. A massive disappointment!

Light and pump stopped working after few minutes. Has a US plug and is unreliable.

Comes fitted with US plugs - unable to use
