Right i will start with the positives, This tank is available in 3 sizes, 1 galon, 2 galon and 4 galons, i would recomend the 4 galon tank as more space is better. With this you get the tank, an under gravel filter, air pump, a plastic plant, an air line, an air stone and a small tub of tropical food. It is made of a complete piece of plastic so there are no seals to replace and less chance of leaks but they do scratch very easily. This is a great starter kit for a goldfish. Now to my dislikes of this tank, The filter on this tank is rubbish and needs cleaning as well as a water change at least once a week, ...

I have a Hexafun aquarium. In fact it is right behind me as I write this. Hexafun aquariums are great for beginners in that you get the tank, filter and plant for a reasonable price. They come in various sizes, I think I have the middle one, and are all made of plastic as opposed to glass. As I said they are great for beginners. However fish experts will no doubt prefer to have a much larger aquarium. Indeed one cannot really call the Hexafun tank an "aquarium". It is much too small. My Hexafun tank contains 8 mountain cloud minnows (coldwater). Hexafun boasts that it can be used for tropical fish. However one would have to get a really small heater ...
