Eshopps AEO19250 Magnetic Pet Bowl and Probe Holder

Eshopps AEO19250 Magnetic Pet Bowl and Probe HolderI got it in a timely manner but one of the magnets was broken (the casing) a little upset I decided to just super glue it back together and forget about it. As I was installing it into my Refugium the other magnet broke in the same way as the first, just fell apart. So now I had to stop what I was doing and fish out the plastic piece and glue it back together.

I purchased this probe holder to use with a pH, ORP, and temperature probe and this setup was worked well. Good quality and magnets were strong enough for 1/2" glass. This setup is better than suction cups that eventually fall off and loosen up over time.

I too had the same experience of it breaking while attached on the sump, the line holder side of the magnet just desinigrated and the small metal fragments fell into the sump water. I took pictures to share with MFG but no return calls or emails to show them the problem. You are lucky yours broke and you knew it mine broke and didn't know it until the damage was done to my tank.

Eheim Feed-Air Fish Feeder Everyday Unit

Eheim Feed-Air Fish Feeder Everyday UnitAs i said in the title...,

This is the best automatic feeder, you will love it.., its extremelly easy to set up, just adjust the hour, and done, you can setup 4 times to feed, you can also can adjust the feeder to feed 2 times for every turn (with 1 minute of difference), also it have a "force" button, to feed manually, without disturb the programmed times.

The compartiment is regulable so you can adjust the amount of food, that will be released in every turn..., its powered by 2AA batteries.

I didn't found at the time something bad, or any problems related to the humidity or moisture.

We purchased this feeder for those times when we're away from home and our 38 gallon fish tank. I set it up (quite easy) and tested it for a week before we left worked great. I DID have to tape a piece of plastic (curved, from a soda bottle) against the edge of the hole in the lid of the tank, where the food is dispensed. Some of the food was ejecting over the edge and this simple "fix" guided the excess food into the tank instead of onto the floor. I think this was because our lid has a rather small opening not a fault of the feeder.

It worked flawlessly while we were away no problems with wet food or hangups. I also like the fact that it's battery operated no need to worry about a power outage.

I had a cheaper feeder on my 30 gal tank. I put more fish in the tank than the feeder could feed. Because this feeder has the option to feed twice in a row, I am able to feed all my fish. My old feeder has a skinny drum with a dispenser centrally located. This one has a wide drum with the dispenser off to the side. This means that the amount of food my fish get depends, in part, on the amount of food left in the drum. Eventually food has to be added before the drum empties. My old feeder can empty the drum on it's own. Another problem with the position of the dispense is that is dumps food over a wide ark. I had to put up a foil deflector to keep the food off the floor and in the tank.

My old feeder also had a clamp to hold it to my tank. This one does not. Now I have to move the feeder every time I open the tank.

I found a feeder on here that seems to combine the good features of both of my feeders but I have not used it.AquaChef Automatic Aquarium Fish Feeder 3 in. x 5 14 in. x 3 in.

I love having a feeder. I use it when I am home or not. It does not take away from my ability to feed my fish on my own. It just makes sure my fish are fed without me having to bother with it.

Read Best Reviews of Eheim Feed-Air Fish Feeder Everyday Unit Here

Very good and reliable. You can program it for a a lot of feeds during the day with one or two turns of the food drum. The window that disposes the food is adjustable, to control the ammount of food dispensed on each turn, nothing new.

The good:

* Easy programming,

* the keys are splash proof

* Very good building, looks strong.

* You can program the feeder to, at each programmed time, rotate not just one time, but two times, one minute apart. Why? It should leave some time to slower fish to feed too, the fast fishes rush on the first serving, and on the second serving they are not so desperate, and leave some food the the shy fishes. Very clever and useful!

The OK things:

* Anti moisture system is ok, but not perfect

The one thing that I was curious about was the anti-moisture system, because my aquarium is a closed hood, so the feeder needs to sit on a very moisture enviroment. My last feeder kept clogging and the internal components have rusted because of the moiture, so it broke.

Well, the anti moisture system is composed of an circular opening (a hole) on the oposite side of the drum, and a little red fan inside. So, the fan pulls the air from this hole thought all the internal components (which is good, because they are moisture sensitive too, my last one broke because of rust, remember?) until it exits throught the drum feeding adjustable window.

So, be aware that this hole must sit on a dry enviroment. In my case, I connected a little hose to this hole to pull the air from outside of the hood, a dry enviroment.

But when the fan activates? The fan only spins when the drum turns, it is powered by the drum motor. So it only purges the moisture when the fish is fed. Ok, maybe the battery would not last it it was kept running all day and night long, but I do not know if this is enough to keep the moisture out, I think it is not, specially in my closed hood aquarium. I used this unit for a couple of days, so I do not know if it is enough to keep the food and components dry.

Well, as I do not want to have it rusted to discover, I connected an outside air pump to the end of the little hose that I plugged on the ventilation hole, so I have forced dry ventilation 24hs a day, and by design of the housing, both internal components and food are saved from moisture. I suggest you do the same if you have a similiar problem.

Bottom line, it is a great product.

Want Eheim Feed-Air Fish Feeder Everyday Unit Discount?

This product works great once it is set up. Make sure you read the instructions for proper programing. I have a wooden lighting/top on my 55 gal tank and just drilled a 1 1/4 inch hole along one side away from the lights and air tubes. Then I put a piece of paper over the hole and manually ran the unit in different spots until I found the spot where only a minimal amount of food did not fall and drew an outline of the unit position on the top and removed the paper for use. The original batteries are still operating since I started using it in the beginning of June. Recommendation don't let the unit get less than half full and make sure if your flakes are large that you crush them up a little so the scoop works effectively. My fish are happy and I am happy. I go away for long weekends or vacations and they are fine!

Nutrafin Master Test Kit, Contains 10 Test Parameters

Nutrafin Master Test Kit, Contains 10 Test ParametersThis is a nice kit, I really like the case. It does have every test you would need for a planted freshwater and a saltwater tank.

The case makes it nice and easy to test. You can use the case as a test tube holder while you add drops if you need an extra hand. The pipettes make it easy to get and add water to the test tubes. It's easy to read the results of the tests except for the pH. I did get frustrated with the pH test because some of the colors are so close it makes it harder to get an exact reading. But you can get it with practice. However, I have been having problems with my pH and was testing so much I just bought a HM Digital PH-200 Waterproof pH and Temperature Meter. So I use the kit for everything else besides the pH and will occasionally compare the kit pH to the meter.

The color charts for the tests are on the back cover of each individual test booklet. Each test comes with its own little test booklet that tells you how to do the test in multiple languages.

So if you have a planted tank or saltwater tank or just want to have all the tests this is a nice test kit. But if you just want a test kit for all the needed parameters for freshwater then all you really need is the API FRESHWATER MASTER TEST KIT

One thing that is annoying is the caps for the test tubes are loose and as long as you hold it by the top and the bottom of the tube it is sealed just fine for shaking the chemicals to mix them. But when you pull the top off it is very likely that you will get some of the contents of the tube on your fingers. The test tube caps could be designed a whole lot better.

This kit has everthing you need and then some, for aquatic plant care! Great price as each of these kits in the store will run you twenty dollars and up times ten. . . . you do the math!

This is my second one.... cheaper than trying to replace the tubes and reagents. It's the most complete kit I could find and reasonably priced.

If you are serious about your livestock and reef-keeping, this test kit is not good. It has a nice plastic case, and all looked great when I opened it up. I was excited to use it but colors are WAY off and near impossible to read for anything over 0ppm of the color chart comparisons on several of the tests (including NH3 & NO3). NH3 is almost worthless even for 0ppm. NO3 will help you know you have 0 or slightly more, but anything over that good luck in determining what your value actually is. Phosphates color chart is okay, but is low resolution (lowest comparison above 0ppm is .225 which is already in your danger zone). Some of the test results are not consistent (like CA I can test and get 500, turn around and a second test will give me 580. An old API I have more consistently will read like 480). I do not advise hagen kits to anyone and will not ever waste my money on them again. I may keep the case to store future kits from different makers though... but this was basically a $50 cheap plastic case.

Want Nutrafin Master Test Kit, Contains 10 Test Parameters Discount?

This Kit is ideal for any Aquarium lover, especially Salt Water enthusiast. It has all the basic test Kits you will need to water analysis. If you priced out buying each test from one of the other manufacturers you would spend easily $170 or more. Then you would not have a neat place to keep them all. Though the quantities of each test is probably less than what you would get from others. The only other test I had to buy for my Reef Aquarium is Iodide, Magnesium, Copper. I don't think there is anything else I need that this kit doesn't have. The Price is just Great at $81. Hope you find this helpful. Good luck with your aquarium!

Kent Marine Reef Salt Mix

Kent Marine 02111 Reef Salt Mix, 200 Gallon Mixthe only issue I had with the salt was some of the bags where broke open which I figured happened during shipment.

Kent marine salt is a high quality salt that mixes easily. My corals are doing great good growth great colors. On my LED pro tank I had to add buffers and alkalinity boosters but on all my other tanks are doing great without it. I hate adding suppliants to my tanks and with Kent I don't have to all parameters are in spec. the vender that sold this item provided quick delivery.

Buy Kent Marine Reef Salt Mix Now

After trying several salt mixes over the years and finding them ALL lacking in some respect, I went online to get advice about the best mix for a very densely populated reef tank. The consensus seemed to point to Kent Marine Reef Salt Mix. After having used it for over 2 months, I must say that the consensus was right. It mixes instantly, has no residue and maintains remarkably high and consistent levels of calcium, magnesium and trace elements ( I have not had to supplement at all ).

And, most importantly, my animals are thriving.

Clearly this mix is the best and it isn't even the most expensive!

Mag Float-130A Magnetic Cleaner - Acrylic - Up to 125 Gal.

Mag Float-130A Magnetic Cleaner - Acrylic - Up to 125 Gal.I followed the instructions. I cleaned the outside of my tank. I rinsed off the brand new "magnet" even though it was new with fresh tapwater (the side that goes in the tank). I then floated it inside the aquarium before putting it on the side of the tank. Stupid me started right down the front rather than the side. Yes, it scraped off the algae. It also scraped up the acrylic. I did not notice until I got to the bottom of the tank and looked at the path it made. Out of the package ten minutes and my tank is scratched to all_____. To say that I am not a happy camper would be the biggest understatement in the world. I have a product to get scratches off the outside of the tank. I have no idea how to get scratches off the inside of the tank.

We had one of these before, a smaller one, and really liked it. It is very convienant and actually fun to use for my son. You just float one side in tank, put the outside one near and they magnetically go together. Occasionally you just "scrub" the outer one, moving it back and forth, up and down. Easy! It really cleans the algae and keeps it clean after that. We keep ours there all of the time and use when needed.

If I had to get one over again, I would order the small one and not the medium size. It's a little big for our 10 gallon tank but that was my fault as it did list it was for larger tanks.

As far as the seller, they were very quick and had no problems at all with anything. I would use them again.

Zoo Med Foam Block for 501 Turtle Filter

Zoo Med Foam Block for 501 Turtle FilterThese prefilters are great. Nice surface area and durable. I use them on Aquaclear HOB filter intakes and Eheim 2215 intakes. Much better than the Fluval Edge prefilter, although I use the Edge Prefilter on my Edge due to space limitations.... The Zoo-Med is a larger diameter than the Fluval.

bought for replacements for filter used for turtle tanks. fits perfectly, last a long time. would recommend for turtle filters.

I set up a couple shrimp tanks and barb breeding tanks; I bought this to cover the intake of my small canister filter to prevent fry and shrimplets from getting sucked up by the filter. It does wonders and doesn't reduce flow :)

Want Zoo Med Foam Block for 501 Turtle Filter Discount?

Fits the canister well, and traps a lot of very small particles. Instructions should note that the capped end of the black tube (which is part of the filter and does not come with the replacement foam block) fits into the bottom of the sponge and that the open end of the same tube inserts into the pump opening in the top of the unit. This will force the water through the filter instead of allowing it to go around the filter instead. So, if you're using this foam block and find the water isn't quite as clean as you'd like, check to ensure the tube is in position properly and securely.

Banana Plant-Med Aquarium Decor

Banana Plant-Med Aquarium DecorAfter several attempts of tring to grow several live banaba plants in my aquarium, I decided to try planting an artificial one. I saw this on amazon. com, and decided to give it a try. It is made out of silk, and once placed in my aquarium, it looks just like a real plant. Since is it make out of silk, the leaves sway in the currents, and my fish like to swim among the leaves. It is also a good size at 10 inches.

Cal Pump SPW10 1200GPH Max Flow Rate Spillway, 10-Inch

Cal Pump SPW10 1200GPH Max Flow Rate Spillway, 10-InchThe Cal Pump SPW10 Spillway works good with a good flow rate and pushes the water out about a foot. I installed a small pond with a preformed triangle liner about a 100 gal. I needed a small spillway less than 12" to fit in. This works great where I wanted to put it. I used the 1" connector supplied and used 1" corrugated tubing I purchased locally.

The problem was with the filter. It was cut short slightly on the sides and wouldn't stay in it's slot. The water would push it forward to the opening and tend to rise and eventually come out. To correct this, I bought a piece of Matala black filter media and cut it so it is snug in the spillway. The supplied filter was more dense so I also used it behind the Matala. Now, they stay where they should. It it been about 3 weeks now and all is working great.

F.M. Brown's Coco Cabana Real Coconut House with Three Doorway Holes

F.M. Brown's Coco Cabana Real Coconut House with Three Doorway HolesI bought this for my son's gerbils because they need something to chew that will last longer than a week. This is perfect! They took the fibers that were inside the coconut out and distributed them around their habitat. They left some inside the coconut, too. We have found them sleeping together inside the coconut. My son says he doesn't like it because he can't get the gerbils out of the coconut! But that's not true. They come out when you start talking to them, no problem. The gerbils like this cozy place to snuggle and keep warm. I am not sure that they are chewing it, though, and that was the main purpose for purchasing this.

My gerbils dug out the insides really fast but don't seem that interested in it anymore. They chew on it some but mostly it just sits in there cage taking up space.

I have two gerbils. As soon as I put the house in the cage the older gerbil started chewing on it. I think it was more to check out the new addition. Since then they have not chewed on it once. They sleep in it all the time and even move it around the cage. They seem to love it.

Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 30-Inch

Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 30-InchNice light. Replaced a dual T8 fixture and this offers more light. Very slim, nice light color, lower energy. Really impressed.

I got this lamp as a replacement for my standard light fixture on a 29g tank because I wanted to be able to grow alive plants. I have only had it for 2 weeks now and I can't say anything about the long term success, but the light levels are definitely sufficient to be called low-moderate lighting, where with the standard fixture the tank was a very low light.

The option to turn on/off the blue and white LEDs separately is great. I only use the white ones during the day and sometimes I turn on the blue ones at night. They are both connected to the same plugin though, so you can't use different timers for the two LED types, which is not a big deal for me but might be important to other users.

Overall I am really satisfied with this light. It is bright enough for my purposes, energy efficient and comes at a fair price.

I wanted to replace my T5 NO light with an LED. After reading reviews of this product, I purchased it via amazon. Unfortunately, the light did not work at all.

Easy to attach to the aquarium frame although I did have to remove the glass top. I would be concerned about 'jumpers' but no one has escaped yet. I would buy this again. It is a bit pricey. Even with the first not working and having to return, the product itself if a five star for me.

While not perfect, I think these lights are a great value. Assuming you are putting this over a 29 gallon tall or a 20 gallon long, you will see average to good plant growth (with better growth from the shorter tank, of course). As a pure fish light, its colors are nice.

Frankly, you won't find an LED with these PAR values at this price outside of DIY.

Rio Plus 600 PT Venturi Water Pump for Aquarium

Rio Plus 600 PT Venturi Water Pump for AquariumLet me first say that I'm using this pump to begin the cleaning process for a very dirty 75 gal tank that has been sitting around for a long while so it has only been running for a week or so.

That being said, it works great! The tank is about 3' tall and pumping it up that height reduces the output to around 65 gph so it won't be my main pump and it will most likely be part of a power head or in the sump/skimmer. However its small size makes it great for any of these applications and with its adjustable directional venturi intake and suction cups it will fit almost anywhere.

Rio has always made quality products and for the price I got it for its well worth it.

This pump works great for my cpr hob skimmer which I used this pump to replace an old one. 5 stars

Zilla 11669 Rock Den

Zilla 11547 Rock Den, SmallI bought this at a local Petco. The tag said it was good for reptiles in any environment terrestrial or aquatic.

a month ago i bought one of these yesterday while cleaning the tank i noticed that this thing was starting to disintegrate i rubbed it slightly and a cloud of dust came off. I cleaned the tank and a mound of a powdery substance was right inside the rock den.

It is probably ok as a desert rock den but as an aquatic den it's like the wicked witch of the west it disintegrates in water.

The paint is chipping off all over the place, and it killed my pleco! The pleco must have ate too much of the paint. I have owned the product for 3 months, and the paint is chipping off everywhere. For your fish's sake, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!

Deep Blue Nitrate Remover Pad 18X10

Deep Blue Nitrate Remover Pad 18X10I purchased this Deep Blue Pad a week ago and it has been running in my filter for 5 days. I didn't need to use the entire pad. I only used 1/2 of it. When I started the NO3 was at 200ppm. After 48 hours the nitrate level in the 125 gallon tank dropped to 160ppm. Another 48 hours and the nitrate was at 80ppm and today the tank is down to 40ppm. And most likely the lowest it's been in 2 years. This product works and reduces high levels of nitrate. I would recommend it to anyone.

This product sounded too good to be true. I cut pieces for both freshwater and reef tanks. After a week, the water chemistry remained unchanged. All the pad succeeded at was working as a mechanical filter.

This product really works. Don't expect overnight success. Nitrate removal is a slow process and takes time. The nitrate level in our aquarium was off the charts (above 150 ppm) and the water quite cloudy. I cut the pad to size and added it to the filter. After two days no noticeable difference. On the fourth day, the water started to clear. One week later crystal clear and the nitrate level was near zero.

Want Deep Blue Nitrate Remover Pad 18X10 Discount?

Promptly arrived in new condition. I cut it to size to supplement an Aqueon filter cartridge in a tropical tank, as recommended to reduce nitrate level by a aquarium shop owner. Generally, the 10% water exchange, and filter changes bimonthly does reduce the nitrate level.

API Buffer Max Marine, 7.7-Ounce

API Buffer Max Marine, 7.7-OunceReceived item in a timely manner. I was amazed @ how it cleared the water to crystal clear. My saltwater tank was clear but you could kind of see it wasn't crystal clear. I used this stuff not to actually make the water clear but to raise my ph for the fish a bit. Within two minutes it was amazing. I will continue to use this product. I would reccommend it to anyone and not just for the ph but to help with crystal clear water.
