Compact Aquarium Kit with LED Hood & Filter Pump
Compact Aquarium Kit with LED Hood & Filter Pump
Bring an illuminated aquatic display to a small space with this compact rectangular aquarium kit. A black LED hood, internal filter pump, sponge, and two artificial plants are included, with USB power supplied through a separately purchased compatible adapter.
Why I Chose This
I like the clearly pictured filter layout and the simple on/off light switch. For a decorative aquatic project, it offers a compact starting point without taking over a desk. I would verify actual water capacity and the needs of any proposed inhabitants first, rather than choosing animals from the supplier's display photos.
Features & Design
- Clear-sided rectangular tank with black hood and rear filter section
- Built-in LED lighting with an on/off switch
- Internal water filter pump and sponge media
- USB-powered design with supplier-labeled DC 5V connections
- Two artificial plants included
- Tank wall material, LED output, pump flow rate, and noise rating are not supplied
The filter does not establish that the aquarium is cycled or eliminate water testing and appropriate water changes. No reduced-maintenance schedule or guarantee of animal health is verified.
Dimensions & Capacity Check
- Supplier-listed dimensions: approximately 8 × 5.25 × 7 inches L × W × H
- Supplier advertises a nominal 1.2-gallon capacity, but that figure is not reconciled with the supplied dimensions
- Confirm the actual internal water capacity and safe operating water level before selecting equipment or inhabitants
- Working water volume is affected by the filter compartment, decor, and fill level
- Usable swimming area and water volume are not separately specified
The supplier suggests a betta, small goldfish, shrimp, or snails, but those suggestions do not establish appropriate permanent housing. Do not select fish or stocking levels from the illustrated animals. Obtain species-specific guidance and confirm space, water conditions, temperature control, flow, and intake safety first.
What's Included
- 1 compact aquarium with LED hood
- 1 sponge
- 1 water filter pump
- 1 5V USB power cord
- 2 artificial plants
- USB power adapter is not included
- An additional intake pre-filter sponge shown in the flow-reduction image is sold separately; it is distinct from the included main filter sponge
- No heater, thermometer, water test kit, conditioner, or cycling supplies are specified as included
- Animals, substrate, and other pictured decorations are not included
Power, Setup & Pump Care
- Supplier requires a compatible 5V USB adapter providing at least 2A; do not use a higher voltage
- Insufficient adapter output may prevent the light or pump from operating correctly
- Follow the manufacturer's setup instructions and keep the pump fully submerged while running; do not run it dry
- Keep the power adapter and electrical connections dry, provide a drip loop, and disconnect power before cleaning or handling the pump
- Place on a stable, level surface that fully supports the filled aquarium and keep away from counter edges, direct sunlight, and heat sources
- If flow is too strong, the supplier suggests a separately purchased compatible intake pre-filter sponge; confirm fit and monitor for clogging
- If flow decreases or the pump stops, disconnect power and follow the manual to inspect and clean the impeller and shaft assembly, then reinstall correctly
- The supplier diagram shows shaft-end caps that may remain seated in the pump or front cover; do not discard them
- Do not assume cleaning or reassembly will fix a damaged pump; stop use if electrical parts or cords are damaged
- Leak-test and prepare the aquatic system before introducing any animals
- Maintain appropriate water testing and care routines; specific cleaning agents and dishwasher compatibility are not supplied

FAQ
Is the power adapter included?
No. The USB cord is included, but you need a compatible 5V adapter supplying at least 2A, as specified by the supplier.
Is it really 1.2 gallons?
That is the supplier's advertised capacity, but it is not reconciled with the listed 8 × 5.25 × 7-inch dimensions. Confirm usable water capacity before choosing inhabitants or equipment.
Is it suitable for a betta or goldfish?
The supplier markets it that way, but appropriate permanent housing is not established by this listing. Check species-specific space, temperature, filtration, and welfare needs rather than relying on the name or photos.
Does the filter mean I can skip water changes?
No. Filtration does not eliminate water testing or appropriate water changes, and the kit is not automatically ready for animals when assembled.
Why does the pump need a high water level?
The supplier states that the pump must remain fully submerged to operate. Follow the marked or instructed operating level and do not run it dry.
Is the extra intake sponge included?
No. The main filter sponge is included; the optional intake pre-filter sponge shown for reducing flow is sold separately.
