This aquarium kit centers on a seamless, clear plastic tank shaped like a trapezoid, sized to hold about one gallon of water. A black base houses integrated white LED lights that shine upward through the bottom of the tank, and a simple on/off switch controls the light. A clear plastic canopy sits on top of the tank and includes a small opening so food can be dropped in without lifting the entire lid. The LED base can run on four AA batteries or be connected with a micro USB cable, though neither the batteries nor the cable ship with the kit. Gravel, live or artificial plants, decor, and fish are not included, so those items need to be added separately to complete the setup. The compact footprint suits desks, dorms, and other small spaces where a single betta will live.
