Customers say
Customers praise the tank's compact, versatile design, ideal for bettas, nano fish, shrimp, and small reptiles, with many noting it fits perfectly on shelves and blends seamlessly with home decor. However, a substantial portion report serious durability issues, including leaking and cracking shortly after setup, with visible caulking flaws and glass misalignment. Some mention receiving defective units straight from the box. A few note the lack of a commercial lid and thinner glass, though most accept these trade-offs. Despite strong appeal for small-scale applications, manufacturing defects remain a significant concern for many reviewers.

Busted Tank
After 2 years the bottom seam starter leaking. The only thing that save me was I used a rubber mat between the stand and tank. The mat kept the water from completely gushing out.
After reading some of the reviews I guess I was lucky it lasted 2 years. The glass is also the same thickness as a 10 gallon I have. The tank just doesn't seem to be designed well enough.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Fantastic customer service from this supplier
I bought the 60 gallon breeder around the end of 2022 I believe. It is currently end of 2025. This tank was amazing and was great for my turtle. I switched to a new type of filter and shortly after my tank began to leak. I contacted their warranty department and due to the size of the tank I purchased, they issued me a full refund and I am now buying the same tank again!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I will never by an aqueon tank again
The Aqueon 60 breedee i bought has a gap between the glass and plastic frame slightly wider than 1/8" on top and bottom on one side. There is also a chip in the glass in one corner under the silicone about 1/3 from the top. The chip will very likely brake upon filling.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Better than a 40
I purchased this 60 gallon on 12-30-24 and set it up on 1-5-24, today is 1-26-25 and NO leaks. I had a 40 gallon Topfin and I iust wanted a little bigger tank. I was limited on size or I would definitely go with a 75 G. However, more than likely IF you can do a 40 gallon then you could probably do a 60. So, a 60 gallon is MUCH better than a 40.
The actual size is 48.5” L X 18.5”W x 16” H.
The only thing I don’t like about is the overall quality is not as good as the Topfin. Like the inside sealing isn’t as uniform and the outside black plastic frame has scuff marks and imperfections.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Leaking Defective Tank
Came home to 60 gallons leaking in my dining room. Reached out to Aqueon but I no longer have receipt. Product is defective and they requested more information but the tank was put outside due to the leak and cannot give name and date code requested because the tank was taken from outside during the day when at work. Very disappointed. Currently have 60 gallons of fish in a plastic tub hoping they’ll make it while trying to find a tank of better quality. I want to make sure no one else has to experience this.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Poorly made
The aquarium tank is poorly made.
Look like someone tried to reseal the tank. Blobs and stringy silicone is everywhere. The glass is aligned and isnt flush with the brace.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Is this tank still made with tempered glass? I'm inquiring for the 60 gallon breeder specifically, website does not have the specs listed for it!
- Some sizes of Aqueon aquariums are either tempered or annealed glass. However, the 60 gallon breeder tank is made from ¼” annealed glass and no tempered glass.

Is this tank still made with tempered glass? I read that this is the reason for cracks or leaks
- The short answer is it depends - the use of tempered glass by Aqueon will depend on the specific aquarium size and style. You can find the reference sheet distributed by Aqueon regarding the weights and measures information for the various tank dimensions manufactured by Aqueon. Here is a link to the Aqueon product information sheet: https://www.reef2reef.com/attachments/1619724238162-png.2153158/ Best of luck!
