Great tank at a great price.

DrexelLake

Great little tank at a great price. From reading comments from ignorant people, most all brands have proprietary tops and parts. It's been that way for over 50 years. I've had one for over a year with zero issues and plan to buy another.

Yes, I recommend this product.

TANK CRACKED

JOEFC

1 month ago
In less than 24 hours after filling up with water and substrate and plants from LFC, the tank cracked. This is not my first tank, made sure tank was level prior to filling up. Had to drain 20 gallons back out, remove everything. Went to Petco to exchange and there were no more in stock. Was told they may get more in stock the following week but no guarantee. 0/10.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Leaky Bottom

Dotty

I bought this tank for a 20 gallon reef. It was fine for a few months but while walking in the living room, I saw a puddle on my wooden floor due to the discoloration. After putting towels around the stand of the tank, I have confirmed that the bottom of the aquarium has a leak.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I advise not buying this brand

I bought two 20 gallon longs. 1 is 7 months old and the other maybe 4 months old. Today I noticed a crack in the same spot on both tanks. I also have a 40 gallon. I checked it out and the front glass is blowing out because there is a gap in the middle of the front lid and rim. So now I have to toss that one also. Garbage but very clear glass.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Secure packaging, but tank marred by etched logo

Richard

7 months ago
I went with the Imagitarium brand when Petco didn't have any of the other 20 gallon long tanks available on sale. The tank came very securely packed with a cardboard top and bottom that covered all 4 corners. Both parts were held on one of those hard plastic bands. Having the top completely covered prevents debris from getting into the tank during storage. Unfortunately, the tank has an Imagitarium logo etched in the bottom right corner of the long side. I couldn't readily tell this logo is there when viewing the images online. I didn't notice the logo until I did a leak test. Granted, you can cover this area with substrate or turn it toward the wall. I just don't like having a glaring logo etched into the glass, possibly weakening it in that spot. So if you can tolerate that etched logo, this is a very solid tank purchase if gotten on the 50% off sale. It passed my 2 day leak test without issues. I purchased it online and picked it up at the store without issue. I returned it to the store without issue. My money was refunded promptly without issue. I would have kept this tank if it wasn't for that etched logo.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Check Your Edges

Being excited about setting it up I didn’t think to look the tank over. I Thought All was good till after I had cut out a little section for the Filter and realized one of the bottom Corner edges had a Chip in it. I am Hoping they will still return it.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Questions

1 - 10 of 13 Questions

When I get the lid that goes with this, will it be able to hold enough humidity for a crab? (70-80%)

  1. Hi good day, yes, it can sustain 70-80% Humidity for your pet crab.



What lid size should I get for this when using the tank for fish?

  1. For the Imagitarium Long Open-Glass Aquarium Tank (SKU 3966812), you should purchase the Imagitarium 20 Gallon Long/29 Gallon Glass Aquarium Top (measuring 28.7" W x 10.95" D). Because Imagitarium framed tanks utilize unique inner-lip measurements that vary slightly from traditional brand footprints, standard universal 20-gallon lids from other brands will not sit evenly or fit securely.



Is this glass tempered?

  1. Hi, No, the glass on this tank is not tempered Thanks.



Can these tanks be used for hermit crabs?

  1. Hi, The Imagitarium Long Open-Glass Aquarium Tank (20 Gallon) can be used for hermit crabs, as its "long" footprint (approx. 30.19" L x 12.4" W) provides the necessary floor space for them to roam. However, you must pair it with a sealed glass lid to maintain the high humidity levels—typically 70-80%—required for their survival. Thanks.



I see a few reviews where Leaking is the primary concern. Have there been any modifications to the product, or changes in policy to address this?

  1. Hi, While there have been no official structural modifications to this aquarium, we continuously refine our manufacturing processes to ensure high-quality seals and glass durability. We stand behind our products with a straightforward return policy, allowing you to shop with confidence and easily exchange your tank if it doesn’t meet your expectations. Our local store teams are always ready to assist you in selecting the perfect unit and providing setup tips to ensure a successful start to your aquatic hobby. Thanks.



What model filter works with this tank. I have the tank and the top/hood - both are great. I can't find a filter that fits between the top/hood opening and the back side of the tank. The opening is too small even without the plastic extension bar on.

  1. We’ve been through a lot of filters. Some hanging on the outside and some in the tank. After lots of learning this is the best filter.. see link.  Make sure you read the description and get the items that go with it. Air pump, tubing, etc Get the course and the small is the correct size for the 20 gallon. It’s actually pretty cheap and it works better than everything we’ve tried!!!  Link https://www.aquariumcoop.com/collections/filtration/products/aquarium-co-op-coarse-sponge-filter?variant=29459429195845.  https://www.aquariumcoop.com/collections/filtration/products/aquarium-co-op-coarse-sponge-filter?variant=29459429195845



How thick is the glass?

  1. Measures 3/16". Hope that helps. :)



How much does ot weigh empty?

  1. 20 to 25 pounds



Whats a good lid to purchase for this tank, ive seen people complaining about the glass lid that is made for this tank saying its too small.

  1. Because I am using it for a ball python, I bought the screen top and the clips for securing it. Probably not the best answer if you are using it as a fish tank.



Does it come with a lid?

  1. No, but you can purchase one separately. I got one from Amazon for about $25.00 and it really adds a level of class. You can easily fit all your accessories by cutting out little spaces in the soft plastic that comes with it. I really love the look.
