hi
is this a good tank i like the look of the bow front but don't know if it has a bigger foot print than a 10gal. thought it would look nice in a corner maybe
and it is all included package for $100 no stand

any one have one
 
i have 2 bowfronts, a 16g and a 36g corner. I really like them but they can be a pain to photograph and I have found it challenging to find lighting upgrades that fit without having to use retrofit kits.
 
I love bowfronts! I have a 36 gallon community and a 72 gallon oscar tank. They are really pretty tanks. My best friend has the 28 gallon. I just love the shape.
 
100 dollars for a 28 bow is a great deal. I personally LOVE bowfronts since it looks so much fancier, and for that price, you cant go wrong.
 
so its a good deal and what could i put in there it was not very long
 
Love mine!

This is the same kit I recently purchased from Petco. The stand was around $70 after discounts. While I've owned it less than two weeks, I love it so far!

It's a great deal considering the kit includes a Penguin bio-wheel filter, a versa-top, and a light strip, though additional lighting is needed for a planted tank. I wound up ordering a T5 fluorescent strip to add more light, and there's plenty of room on top of the tank for both.

Mine is stocked with Dwarf Neon Rainbowfish, harlequin rasboras, kuhli loaches, and two small cats.
