Okay, so I caved and bought this sleek little 7.5G nano tank after weeks of staring at betta fish TikTok setups. Here’s the tea:

• Tank itself? GORGEOUS. The curved glass corners make it look way pricier than it is. Thicker glass than expected—no flexing when I accidentally elbow it while doomscrolling.

• Filter: Meh. It’s like a Roomba that gets stuck on carpets—works fine but sounds like a tiny helicopter. Pro tip: plug the air intake hole with aquarium putty if you want peace (RIP my shrimp’s zen before I figured this out).

• LED light: Basically a fancy nightlight. My anubias plants are throwing shade (literally). Upgraded to a $30 Nicrew clip-on within a week.

• Lid: Flimsier than my New Year’s resolutions, but keeps my cat’s murder mittens out. That 3-inch gap? Perfect for feeding, terrible for jumpy fish—add mesh if you keep gouramis.

Final verdict? 4/5. Worth it for the tank alone—everything else is bonus trial gear. My betta Pablo Escobarr seems happy, and that’s what matters. *drops fish food like mic*
