Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this 29-gallon aquarium for exceptional value and durability, with most highlighting clear, scratch-resistant glass, balanced dimensions ideal for fish and reptiles, and thick construction. Many report confidence in longevity based on past brand experiences lasting 20 years. The size is widely appreciated as versatile for various pets and planted setups. However, a notable group reports leaks and poor silicone sealing, particularly after extended use, with some experiencing catastrophic failures. Despite these concerns, most customers consider it a reliable, well-built choice.

Quality control is lacking

I bought this but with the lid just under 2 years ago. I just noticed a few days ago that it was started to leak. I bought a new tank only last night, had to drive a bit as no one had it in stock. Looks good, I bring it home, eat dinner and go to sleep. This morning, my existing tank starts leaking even more and I think I'm luck as I have this new tank here. Removed the fish, drained it and planned on changing tanks after work. Nope the new tank has a crack in it. A crack that was strategically hidden underneath the receipt for my in-store pickup.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Terrible experience x 3

Customer 0

1 year ago
I had three terrible consecutive experiences with Petco. Experience one. The first is that I ordered on their website an aquarium filter. The website indicated I should pick up the filter the next day at a petco store that is 30 minutes from my house. When I got to the store I was told my merchandise was not in stock. I drove another 30 minutes to my home empty-handed. Experience two. I then called Petco CustomerService to get a refund, which after a week has not arrived. At CustomerService I purchased another item for the one that was not in stock. During the purchase, I was disconnected from CustomerService three times as I tried to enter my credit card number. I spoke with three different women from CustomerService who had foreign accents that were incredibly difficult to understand. Each person was more incompetent than the next. When Petco’s credit card system finally worked, I received an email stating that my merchandise would be delayed and they could not give me a date of delivery. Experience three. I ordered aquarium sand on Amazon that Turned out to be purchased from Petco. After waiting for delivery of the aquarium sand, Amazon informed me that they had to cancel my order because Petco could not deliver it. This is just pathetic. I will never shop at Petco again. Petsmart has their act much more together.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Great for Hamsters (not big enough for a Guniea)

MirandaPopsOff

As a past fish owner, this is not a tank I would recommend for holding 29 gallons of water because the sealant on the sides isn't great. I, however, bought this for my new hamster; it works great for him. I would definitely recommend this for hamsters.

Yes, I recommend this product.

For the price I paid, its a very good tank. Are there better tanks out there, yes. But this is very adequate and its glass. The silicone seals seem to be done right as well. So all in all its a good tank.

Questions

1 - 10 of 65 Questions

What is the warranty? I have two and both tanks developed leaks in under a year.

  1. Thanks for reaching out, and we’re sorry to hear that both of your tanks developed leaks. Aqueon glass aquariums 75 gallons and smaller are covered by a 5-year limited warranty for the original purchaser against defects in materials and workmanship during normal use. Proof of purchase is required, and the warranty is limited to repair or replacement of the aquarium and does not cover property damage or loss of fish. Since your 29-gallon tanks developed leaks within the first year, we recommend contacting Aqueon Consumer Care at 1-888-255-4527 or https://www.aqueon.com/about-us/contact-us so our team can review your situation and help with the warranty process.



Light replacement or cover. Where can I buy replacement lights or cover for my 29 gallon tank?

  1. Thanks for your question! For a 29 gallon Aqueon aquarium, the lid is the Aqueon Hinged Glass Top 30" x 12" size, which is designed to fit securely inside the tank frame. For lighting, you have two main Aqueon options: you can use a 30" LED Deluxe Full Hood, which combines both a cover and built-in LED light in one unit, or you can pair the glass top with a separate LED fixture like the OptBright series for more flexibility. Both options are designed to properly fit and provide appropriate coverage for a standard 29 gallon setup. You can find the Hinged Glass Top here: https://www.aqueon.com/products/glass-tops/hinged-glass-tops. You can find the LED Hood here: https://www.aqueon.com/products/lighting/led-deluxe-full-hoods. You can find the OptiBright ficture here: https://www.aqueon.com/products/lighting/led-optibright-light-fixtures. For further information or dedicated support, please contact the Consumer Care team. They are available at 1-888-255-4527 or online at https://www.aqueon.com/about-us/contact-us, and they will be glad to assist.



Will this be restocked in local stores soon?

    Will the lid / tank work with an auto feeder?

    1. Yes



    Is it good for a baby leopard gecko? And does it have a little net on top so I can put a uvb light?

    1. It should be fine for a gecko. There’s no net but there is a wire mesh tank cover that’s sold separately



    what's the W' L' H" of a 29 gallon aquarium?

    1. Hi there! The dimensions for this tank are 30.25" x 12.5" x 18.75".



    hi! i was wondering if this tank would be fit for a ball python (adolescent)?

    1. If it is a hatchling yes, however they grow rapidly and that is not big enough for an adult.



    How Much are the lid and lights that comes along with the tank ?

    1. Hi there! Please visit your local Petco to find the lid and lights that will work for you and the fish you plan on housing in this tank! If you'd like additional assistance please give our Aqueon team a call at 1-888-255-4527.



    How thick is the black rim on these tanks? I would like to use a lily pipe in this tank, but I'm worried that the plastic makes it too wide to fit. The lily pipe has a glass U-shaped portion that goes over the rim of the tank, ~1.5" within the "U"

    1. Hey there! The frame is approx. 7/8” from the outside to the inner ledge that the hood sits on. This would be enough room for the lily pipe. If you have any more questions about the tanks, feel free to call our friendly Consumer Care team here at 1-888-255-4527.



    what are the "absolute" dimensions on this tank, please. Thank you

    1. Hello! This tank measures 30.25 x 12.5 x 18.75 inches.
