Sounds like a good deal to me, a nano cube goes for about 100 bucks, its 12 gallon, but it doesnt come with as much. I think 60 is a good deal

What kind of filter? What kind of heater? Does it come with a lid? If it includes all top notch products, then it isn't a bad deal. But it isn't that good either, at least where I live. I can get a 10 gallon tank and lid combo for $20. Add $15 for a heater and $15 for a filter, and it totals $50 for all top quality products.

It is all top fin tank, and it does have a lid with a light. I added top products up in my own head if i got a tank alone and had to buy everything. it added up to this price.

nope its a great filter IMO everyone s top fin well not me. but if you want a boi wheel filter or whatever get one. a topfin 10 has 80gph filtering your tank 8x an hour. thats great for a ten gallon IMO and experience

I dunno, I got a twenty topfin set a while ago, and the filter broke down pretty fast. Since then, I've learned to buy the filter seperately (and just in case, the heater, too).

8x an hour isn't ideal. And it lacks decent bio-filtration, that's the most important kind. My advice: Get a Penguin MINI. It filters the water 10x an hour and has excellent long-term bio-filtration. They only cost about $15 max, in some places less.
