[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Man, my kid had a blast making this aquarium! Such a fun activity for us to do together. My child is 3, so a little younger than the age requirement, but totally able to make the aquarium with a little help. We loved mixing the slime gel and decorating the outside with the provided stickers. We were especially delighted to see the glow in the dark stickers in action! The product is a little smaller than it seems on the box, but overall it was a great activity for my toddler!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging was safe and secure. Not very durable but not easily breakable. Probably wouldn’t buy myself for the value. The mini axolotls are adorable and there are plenty included. The bubble solution is very messy and hard to clean up. It is thick and very hard to see the axolotls inside. The stickers do not glow as advertised. All and all it is versatile.

Please note that the stickers require charging under a bright or blue light and will produce a subtle glow.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids really enjoyed making the axolotl aquarium and decorating it. There was plenty of filler to make multiple jars or use as sensory fun. I do wish the filler was more see through so they could see the figures in the jar, also the glow in the dark stickers only worked the first day. Either way it was a fun craft for us to do as a family!

You will need to charge the stickers with a bright or blue light each time you want them to glow.
It’s amazing for your kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Glowing Axolotl Aquarium is a fun and unique piece that’s both eye-catching and functional. The durability is solid, with sturdy materials that hold up well over time. I felt it was designed with safety in mind, especially for younger users, since there are no sharp edges or small loose parts. The packaging was neat and secure, ensuring everything arrived without damage. The assembly process was simple and straightforward, taking just a few minutes to set up without any hassle. What I like most is the versatility—it works great as a decorative piece, a calming night light, or even as a fun addition to a child’s room. Overall, it’s a well-made and creative product that adds a glowing touch to any space.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a fun craft to do with my daughter. She loved decorating the aquarium tank, especially with the sensory gel that you add. Directions were very easy to follow and it made an adorable finished product. Bonus was that we could see it glow in the dark at night. Just be prepared to get a little messy if you play with the leftover nontoxic gel.

Fun activity for my 8 yr old. It doesn’t turn out the same as the pic- you can’t see the axlotls as clearly through the gel but we put them up to the sides as much as possible. There was a good amount of gel leftover I put in a ziplock bag and let her push it around from the outside like a sensory bag.
Very disappointing

Doesn’t glow and my son is very very disappointed. Not worth the money. Not sure why the pictures advertise that they glow! Also the glow stickers don’t stick.

We're sorry to hear of the disappointing experience. The finished product does require "charging" under a bright or blue light and will product a subtle glow. Cleaning hands before assembly of the stickers may assist in them sticking. Please contact consumer@fabercastell.com so we may assist you further directly.

Doesn’t glow and makes a huge mess. Disappointed with final product.

We're sorry to hear of your issue - the assembled terrarium does require some "charging" to produce a subtle glow. We recommend covering your workspace and wearing old clothes or a smock before assembly.

When I bought this, it looked so cool, but when I actually tried it, the color of the magic powder looked nothing like the box said it looked like. After, I couldn’t clean up the magic powder and it is still there. I tried to wipe it, but that didn’t work and the box said nothing on how to clean it. The axolotls were barely even seen. I would not recommend this product.

We're sorry to hear of your disappointment. We do recommend covering your work area and wearing old clothing or a smock. The color in your photo does look layered and colorful, and your axolotl are visible. You may want to push them closer to the edges of the container for easier viewing.

Fun to do with my son. Fairly quick and easy way, but stickers don’t glow!!! Tried UV light and nothing

We're sorry to hear you experienced difficulty with the glow stickers - they should produce a subtle glow when light by a bright or blue light. But they will fade over time.

Set up was fast but I wouldn’t pay more than 8 or 10 dollars for this , $16 and it’s hard to see the little creatures once’s they are in the solution , we pressed them against the cup to see them but they are slimy so they move. This is something I know will be in the trash by the weekend

This was a cute quick project for 5-7 year olds. They still needed a little help and would recommend glue the top down so they can’t play with the gel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the cutest little toy for kids! It's perfect for a rainy or snowy day inside. My daughter, nieces and nephews had an absolute blast playing with it and it actually glows in the dark which is super cool. It takes a little time to assemble, which I think the kids enjoyed. They took their time and were distracted by it for several hours, which I really appreciated! 😆 This is a great gift for little kids and can be used in so many settings, including a classroom! 10/10 would recommend! 🫶🏾

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a cool, entertaining project for the little ones. It includes stickers and gems to decorate. It's definitely something easy to create and have fun with the kids. It didn't glow in the dark though. I was excited for it to glow, but for some reason it didn't.

Thank you for your feedback - it is necessary to charge the jar with a bright or blue light so that it can emit a subtle glow.
