Definitely an affordable aquarium. I have had it for two years. However, the quality of the plastics is not good. The hinges that hold the lid broke after the first 10 openings. The base of the light on the lid also broke in the first year, and I tried to support the LEDs with makeshift solutions to prevent them from sinking into the water. Finally, I was surprised to see green mold forming on the glass with just 5 hours of lighting per day, and there were some fuzzy black algae-like balls inside the aquarium. I have never encountered this in other aquariums, at least not to this extent. I suspect it is due to the intensity of the light produced by the LEDs. So the only positive thing I can say about this aquarium is its price and the fact that I didn't have any water leaks.
