Penn Plax Spongebob's Pineapple Home Ornament


buyer beware if you actually care about your fish
I bought this item to place in my 20g tank.
The quality of the manufacturing isn't ideal, and the product can certainly harm your fish. The harm would come from the areas around where the door and window openings are formed into the body, as well as the rim around the bottom... In all those areas, the material seems to have been cut with a hot knife or some other type of thermal cutting tool, sharp plastic slag and edges on the interior where fish (especially if they have flowing fins like Bettas or goldfish) can harm themselves either by shredding the fins or damaging scales.....

I used fine sandpaper and steelwool to polish the sharp edges, and after a through cleaning placed the house into my tank.

the house looks good in the tank with a sand bottom.... but, there will be some modification you will have to do since this product is obviously mass produced with little attention to final quality.
Really cute for my female betta fish
I was out Christmas shopping for my four bettas when I came across the Spongebob Squarepants pineapple house. I couldn't help myself but buy if for my female crowntail betta fish Syn. Syn loves it. The size of the windows are a perfect size. Syn swims through the holes with ease. She also likes to rest in it. I think it was well worth the $10 I spent on it.
Fish Love It
Bought 2 pineapple houses for my two beta fish. They love it! They swim in and out of the windows and doors all the time. Then they will swim half way through a window and park there. I love watching them do this. If you love your fish, get them a pineapple house of their own.
