    Pet’s Delight is your go-to source for beautifully-made glass bowls. Whether you need one as a stylish desktop decor or a temporary home for your fish, we have a good selection of quality glass bowl aquarium pieces.

    Glass offers crystal clarity, scratch resistance, and a premium feel, surpassing many plastic options. Its inert surface won't leach unwanted metals or chemicals, making it safer for delicate fish species and planted arrangements. A well-chosen glass bowl — large and roomy enough for your aquatic pets to live in — provides your fish with a clean, unobstructed view and adds beauty to any room.

    A small glass fish bowl aquarium may not be a suitable permanent house for most fish, but you can fill the bowl with plants and other aquarium accessories to create a decorative piece. Alternatively, glass bowls can serve as temporary shelter for fish you’ve just brought home, letting you prepare their aquarium with ease. 

    Browse by brand, type, or price to find the perfect match that suits your space and your fish keeping needs.

    Tips for Using Glass Bowls Successfully

    • Size matters: Don't underestimate the space requirement. Even for small fish, a larger volume is safer and easier to maintain.

    • Provide filtration & aeration: Glass bowls often lack built-in filters, so plan for a small internal filter or air pump to maintain water quality.

    • Use fish-safe decor: Smooth, non-toxic decor will keep your aquatic pets safe and the aquarium scratch-free.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Glass Bowl Aquariums

    You can keep one or two small fish in a 2-gallon glass bowl aquarium, but it is tiny and not suitable for most fish. At best, it may house a single betta fish or a few shrimp or snails. Even then, it requires frequent water changes and careful monitoring because the small volume of water is more challenging to maintain stability. The water can quickly become toxic due to waste. For long-term fish health, larger aquariums (5 gallons and above) are strongly recommended.
    It may not be OK to keep most fish in a bowl aquarium. A glass fish bowl aquarium often lacks filtration, aeration, and space, which can lead to stress and shortened lifespans for fish. Bowls can work as temporary habitats or for small creatures like shrimp or snails, but they are not ideal for most fish. If you choose a clear glass fish bowl, it’s best to add a small filter, keep up with regular water changes, and select species that can thrive in small spaces. Larger aquariums remain the more ethical, fish-friendly option.
    The difference between Savic plastic boxes and glass aquariums is in their usage: a Savic box is typically used to transport fish and serve as temporary shelter for them whereas a glass aquarium is intended as a permanent home. A Savic fauna box in plastic is also great as a terrarium.
    Acrylic is not necessarily better than glass because both have their pros and cons as small aquariums. Acrylic is ideal for aquariums that need portability because the material is lightweight and more affordable than glass. Glass, on the other hand, may be heavier but offers a premium look and provides long-term clarity, giving you enjoyable, stress-relieving hours of watching your aquatic pets.
