Good size and very nice looking!
I love length of this rimless tank as it gives my fish a lot of room to swim back and forth with only 16 gallons! The depth is fine for me as I only keep small community fish with adult size of mostly 1 inch and a few under 3 inches. The exact size is 34Lx11Hx10W. It also came with brackets for the 4 corners and 8 side brackets so I was able to set the DIY grid cover on top of it very nicely. My tank came clean with no damage or chip anywhere. I've had this up for 17 days now and so far so good. I made this setup mainly for my mom who's 88 years old as I noticed that she gets entertained just watching fishes swim and interact with each other. She even knows how many of each kind of fish there are in the tank and I have 23 LOL! I really hope this would last for years as my mom really enjoys it!

Gorgeous and Well Made
I’ve officially been using this tank for about 3 months, and it’s perfect. I absolutely love it. It’s so beautiful and a great size - fits well on top of my slim dresser. There have been no leaks of any kind and it came through the mail in perfect condition, despite witnessing my mailman non-gracefully set it on my porch. 😭 It was packaged very well and there’s been 0 issues. It’s a gorgeous tank for the price.

Amazing tank, perfect centerpiece.
I absolutely love this tank. Coming from $20-$30 cheap rimmed or plastic tanks, this is an enormous upgrade and it looks so, so nice. It's a centerpiece in my bedroom atop a really nice FATORRI bookshelf. Wanting something unique I made it a micro Tanganyikan cichlid tank with Multies, Julies, Cylindricus, and Lemon Cichlids. It's very long which gives larger more space to swim where they traditionally wouldn't be comfortable. The glass is thick and sturdy. I strongly recommend NICREW internal filters to go with this, I'm running two of their 10-20g filters on either side and it looks super clean with nothing poking out and keeps my admittedly overstocked tank nice and clean. All in all, very strongly recommend. It's beautiful, a decent price for what you get, and a perfect shape.

DO NOT PURCHASE!!!
This aquarium is pretty, but leaked EVERYWHERE as soon as I filled it with water! They expect me to ship it back, but HOW? It came wrapped in clear wrap, so I guess I’ll get some Reynolds’s wrap from the store and call it good! I’m so pissed! Purchase at your own risk! 🤬🤬🤬

Good Nano Bookshelf Tank!
Good tank so far (had for about a week) . Only complains I have on it is when it arrived the glass had some type of glue on it that needed to be scraped off and cleaned. Got for a fair price at $60. Glass could be more clear but you get what you pay for…

This tank is beautiful and well constructed, would buy from them again
It is very well constructed. You can tell they paid attention to all the little details. Things like the silicone beads being exactly enough to hold the glass without ugly smears inside the tank like my Aqueon 5 gallon has. Overall it's just a very pretty tank. I'm planning to go heavily planted so I can get away with just a sponge filter or even filterless. It came with a leveling pad, and it was preattached which was nice - no struggling to get it aligned properly. My next tank is probably going to be from them too, can't say anything nicer than that about a product. Edit: Packing was great - tank in a box with peanuts, in another box with more peanuts.
