So i have been lookin around for a good 5 gallon aquarium. I have been online and looking at my LFS. Does anyone know where to get a good one?
 
The mini now 5 gallon is pretty nice. I have a couple of 2.5 gallon tanks for my bettas. Only thing you have to change is throw out the filter that comes with it that filter is garbage. Replace with an Azoo palm filter and it's good to go :)
 
I recommend a bow front. IMO, you get more room. 5 gallons are somewhat limited, but are so fun!! I used to have one, but upgraded to my current 29, looking to get another 5 gallon planted shrimp tank.
 
imo go to a lfs and get a used one, most will sell you it cheep if not give it to you and then you can outfit it with whatever you want

Petsmart has some cool 5g minibow kits, I'd go with one of those.

I have the kit, but IMHO the filter is sad. It works, but I'd replace it with an Aquaclear or Red Sea Nano or ?

I swapped out the light bulb of course.
