I have all 3 kits from walmart and they are great, in fact Aqua tech improved their filter so it has bio-fiber. They are good starters and you can always upgrade the filter if you have to. The heaters that come with are Whisper and hold the temp constant. I dont see any difference with their lights as really any other, they are florescent and provide enough light
