Default Hummm... Opinions please?

OK, so we have all seen the tiny wall hanging betta bowls that are basically a cup on the wall. I was just looking around on E-bay and found these .

They're 4.5 gals, they have a pump, filter, air pump with diffuser, and 10w of fluor. lighting. Would this be OK for a betta? I know fish aren't decorations (although they sure look like works of art to me), but more for the fact that I have no more space to set things! LOL

So what do you all think?

Here is another link with the different shapes and colors available. http://cgi.ebay.com/HANGING-BUBBLE-A...QQcmdZViewItem

LOL That's true, I don't think hubby would want to spend that much either, but if it works well, it would be worth it to save the space!

I think those are great. I'm not a fan of the 1 gallon hanging "tanks" at Petco and on EBay, but the ones you linked to seem great...of course, it'd be nice to get some reviews from people that have used them or at least to see more details about the filtration system.

I'll send the EBay seller an email asking about the filter. If I receive a response, then I'll post the info here.

Otherwise, they seem like fine systems for a fish or two albeit a bit pricey.

It looks like one of those domes they use for security cameras slightly modified... haha I actually have one out in my garage ... if I wasn't so broke right now it would be a cool project to play around with... hmmmmm

How would you hide all the power cords to it also?
