FLUVAL - Spec V Led 19L White 52X19X29.5Cm - (106.8218)

Love this little tank. I am an experienced fish keeper but wanted a little living ornament for my desk at work. Really impressed with all the features, very well designed and very attractive. Probably the best tank design I've seen.Filtration is good, turns over the tank volume about 15 times per hour and the filter is fully visible from one end so you know when it needs cleaning. Filter output generates good surface movement for aeration.It comes with a condensation lid and built in bottom frame so no mat needed.The light unit is excellent, soft touch on / blue / off. All the wires and pipe are located at the filter end so nice and tidy.Note this tank is very small so only suitable for a few small fish like guppies. Would not recommend it for goldfish or any other cold water species. Heater is not included so an extra cost if going for tropical fish.Thoroughly recommended for kids and those new to the hobby.

Great little aquarium I love it. It's very well designed. Huge sump filter (for a tank that size), heater fits down in the corner with the pump so all the clutter is out of sight which especially makes sense for a nano tank - for me it's about making it look nice. LED lighting unit is good and I especially like the blue LED option for night time. Only time will tell how good it's LED lighting is for growing plants under though being only 7.4w but seems pretty bright. If it's helpful to anyone I've used 4kg's of coarse Samoa sand in it which is about right, but 5kg's would have been better still I think for plants.

I have no problem with the tank and it is a neat setup, I have just returned to aquatics after an 18tn year lay of, maybe lock down crazies i don't know. The tank was an impulse and you will see lots of people out there with rave reviews and some whackose as well, majority are seasoned in aquatics which is impotent in this review, having got the tank I decided what I was going to do with it, ye fell at the first hurdle aquatics has that affect, turns you into an impulsive nummty that needs restraints "forgot about that one" sorry babbling on but impotent.I have set the tank up but not as manufacturers recommendations, so my bad if it doesn't work.got my old head on hours of research rather than costly unfortunate mistakes " do this before getting the rank"the difficulty's are the water perimeters in a small tank, the people on line that recommended it as i say experienced and always have a pristine tank by their side apparently using Fluval set-up.Relay easy to set up only need to purchases a heater small enough to fit the pump void if you want to keep the sleek main tank look which is the main selling point. strange i couldn't find a fluvial one. i have a 50w in the void will see how it goes. filter is easy to set up looks good idea but im thinking once it has a bit of soaking and filtration to me the neat handle will not be as functional, i wont know as i said i have gone with my own filter setup.the pump is not difficult to fit just fiddly, plus side you need to be close to hear it and the low setting is plenty strong for the tank.I would recommend this tank for someone that has some experience and a small area to fill with with something i catching if you are new to aquatics or thinking about your children i would go for a bigger tank, cheaper options are out there. if you have read this to the end what are you doing with your lifeStay safe live long and prosper.Gerry

This is by far the quietest tank i've owned. The pump is very effective even on the lowest setting. It so much easier to clean. Only minor design flaw and is minor, is the white trim on the bottom of the tank will leave you with paper cuts if you carry the tank (when empty). It looks stunning and sits perfectly on my office desk due to the slim design. Highly recommended.

It’s a lovely looking tank and I’m happy with it, but perhaps that is due to ignorance. The cleaning of the tank doesn’t take too long.Problems that I’ve encountered:No room for a decent heater in filter compartment.Can’t feed a wire up and over the filter compartment without cutting a nook because the lid won’t close.The filter is much to high for fish with large decorative fins so I had to invent a way to reduce it whilst maintains filter flow.It’s too narrow for many of the shop bought tank decorations.My plants don’t look too happy most of the time even with CO2 liquid.

Arrived damaged so cant really coment on the product.

Perfect for what we needed and fits beautifully on a lounge shelf. Great size and easy to set up.

This is my first tank and I love it! You can find help with mods to make it better depending on the type of stock you intend to keep and that's great for a beginner to start fiddling while having a complete set up to start off with.
