Interpet Fish Pod 64


Ours is old......still going strong
Well we have had our Fish Pod 64 for longer than i can recall now, and everything is almost as it was when we bought it, the deltatherm heater is still keeping the temperature nice and static, the PF filter is still quiet, hasnt slipped from its suckers and we have barely ever cleaned it (yes i know we should have done before anyone says anything ha ha). We only have 2 goldfish in this particular one, but do have another downstairs for marine fish and the same marks also apply to that.

To conclude, a complete package, which lasts for ages, lets me see our fish from almost any angle in the room, and almost low maintenence, what more could i have asked for in an aquarium?
Interpet Fish Pod 64 Litre Tropical Fish Tank
I purchased this tank as a package with a flat pack stand, re. just the tank, the description is slightly misleading in that the filter is not "built in", it is a Interpet PF2 internal filter. The Heater/Thermostat is a conventional glass tube type. The plus points are:
no corner frame on the two front corners (glass is curved around front and sides)
ready to set up (aside from gravel, plants etc)
more stylish than many other tanks
Integral lights (1 daylight and 1 blue night light)

Downsides (some specific to me)
The interpet heater/thermostat has condensation in it (will be replacing under warranty)
Lid hinge needs a fair amount of clearance if you want to totally open the lid, rather than just open the feeding flap
The plastic floor of the tank was slightly warped, rather than replace the tank I purchased a foam mat and cut it to size to fully support the base (otherwise you risk a leak)
Replacement lamps are expensive (just search...
i like it
fortunately arrived on time
no problems setting up compleet fittings
i liked the duel ligting a lot
the starter kits a bonus
the best feature is the rounded corners it accually
makes the tank look a loTT bigger
