Desert Cactus Aquarium or Terrarium Background, 19" x 50"

• Size: 19 X 50

I bought this for our 36"x18"x16" beardie tank. The image quality is good and it's high quality. I had to trim it a bit to get it to fit correctly-I did this with a grid ruler and rotary cutter. I don't know if my order was a mistake, but the description for this is 19"x50" and I ended up with well over 10 feet! Use good double sided tape along the edges to get in place.

I bought this for my 75 gallon tank for my bearded dragon. It is exactly what I was looking for! The color is amazing, it is a nice laminated photo with seamless transitions and it is double sided! It shipped and arrived extremely fast.

**NOTE TO POTENTIAL BUYERS**

This is 19 inches by 50 FEET (the description stated 50 inches). You get an entire roll of the stuff. Granted I didn't really find this to be a problem as it is still a great price, now I just have plenty of extra in case I screw up trimming it :-P

Airline Holders for Aquariums - 6 Pack

It's the standard product for a reasonable price. I am disabled and it's nice to know that you can still get this service without having to leave the house.

Wow, some of those old cliches are true! And Lee's just had to crank up the assembly lines to prove it! Or did they just throw together some surplus parts from other products? Did they ever even try to use their own products?

I found it simply impossible to put the pegs from the airline holders into the suction cups by hand, and I'm rather sure I'd break them by using plyers or other tools. So I've given up.

Hey, did you know that Lee's Aquarium and Pet Products are made in the U.S.A.? Wow, and I didn't think anything was made in the U.S.A. anymore! But they want me to put a sqaure peg in a round hole! Does that tell you something about where our economy is going and why?

Buy Airline Holders for Aquariums - 6 Pack Now

Only problem I had was the "small" part . The airline tubing holders are small.

I don't see the problem as some reviews. One being a square peg in a round hole thing.

I think it's designed like that to make a more secure connection? Why not a one piece? Who knows...got 2 different type from different manufactures, both seem good enough to rate 5.

I have large Oscars and being the dogs they are, one of these suction cups went into the tank unsecured. One Dog ate it and became lodged in his mouth. (180 gallon tank). Diving for my Oscar, netted him, jumped out of the net, picked him up and secured him. Got tweezers, and gently performed an extraction. Oscar was traumatized for an hour, now doing well.

There would have been a problem, but the suction cup was not completely over the tube.

Other than that, they are perfect for keeping the lines down and out out of the way.

Agree with other reviewers, very difficult to put together. Completely idiotic to have square peg to go in small round hole (how on earth did that get manufacturing approval?).

Finally managed to make it work (bend clip, luckily dosen't break) and force and wiggle! However, even the clip dosen't hold normal tubing well at all.

I actually thought I had bought a defective product until I checked it out other reviews on amazon!

These are a great and cheap way to keep your air stones in place, HOWEVER, if you purchase them you will have to use a knife to shave some of the plastic out of the hole (very easy to do since the plastic is very soft. Took me less than three seconds) but after you do that the pegs will fit into the holes no problem.

Fish & Aquatic Supplies Tetra Safestart 100Ml

I transferred my betta from a bowl to a 5 gallon tank, and needless to say, I was anxious to get him into his new spacious tank ASAP. This product allowed me to do that after just one 12 hour period with the filter running and the SafeStart added (not sure even that was necessary). My betta has been happy, active and blubble-nesting away in his new environment from day one thanks to this product!

I got this after I set up a new 2gal aquarium (under gravel filter, aerator and heater...cost more than the fish, but worth it!) and had never heard of cycling (please Google aquarium cycling or nitrogen cycle, too long to explain here). After testing I found very high nitrites >5ppm and no nitrates (very bad). I called Tetra and they told me to change 25% of the water and put in 1 teaspoon into the new water (mix with the new 25% water before putting in the tank, also add dechlorinator and can add aquarium salt not table salt). By the following week when I tested again nitrites were 0 and nitrates were 0-5ppm (desirable readings). I highly recommend this product. Note: shake extremely well and refrigerate after opening.

1300 GPH Powerhead Aquarium Pump Wave Maker

I have one on a 54 gallon corner aquarium and it can really move some water around, WOW! I only wish there was some way to reduce the amount of flow on these. I have it pointed a little above level to create surface agitation and it still moves the sand on the bottom of the tank creating dunes in the sand. My tank is 22" deep. In order to actually use it I took out the propeller and trimmed it down to a more reasonable flow rate, it was not too hard just make sure its equal on both sides. great product for the price.

I use two of these in my 46 gallon mixed reef. They alternate every 90 minutes and I know there are no dead spots in my tank! I actually had to position them in such a way that my live rock would diffuse some of the flow because it was moving too much of my sand bed. Great powerhead and you cant beat the price.

Coral Vue Technology AC20284 Octopus Needle Wheel Skimmer for Aquarium Filter, 4-Inch, 100-Gallon

For a beginner:

If you are new to protein skimmers the first thing to know is that you generally want to divide the "gallons rated" value by half. So this 100 gallon skimmer will best work for tank up to about 60 gallons.

Also, this is an in-sump skimmer meaning that it needs to be in a separate aquarium to do its job. It cannot be placed outside on a surface and always needs to be submerged in water. There are 2 water lines on this skimmer... the min water line is just about where it says "reef octopus" in on the acrylic tube and the top water line being just under the large black band under the collection cup. To give you an idea, this means the skimmer should be in a water level between ~6.5-10" of water when operating.

It's pretty easy to put together and don't expect much instructions from the manufacturer. LIke most marine products you have to look on message boards often to find support. Once put together, there is a red dial to adjust the bubble level in the skimmer so it collects the ideal amount of waste. There is no set amount the dial should be turned, you must play around with it for a few days to figure it out. On normal operation you should have to empty the collection cup about once a week.

A couple of issues with this for me was the skimmer just didn't skim as well as I would have liked it to, after playing with it for months now I still think it could do a better job at removing the junk from the water. Also, I wish that it would be easier to disassemble for cleaning purposes because it can get quite clogged and it's a pain to clean.

Final advise: shop around when looking for saltwater tank products online. Amazon many times does not have the cheapest price and you can find this and many products elsewhere for 25-40% cheaper.

-Produncto quality is very good.

-The performance, is excellent!

-I recommend this excellent skimmer because it works perfectly.

-100 percent recommend!!!

EasyPro ASB32 32-Ounce All-Season Liquid Pond Bacteria

I need to order some more of this soon. It worked well in my pond, helped improve the water... easy to use. No complaints.

I've had my pond for 8 years with fairly good results each year but I thought I'd skip the UV light this year because I wasn't THAT happy with the results last year so I tried this product instead. I drained out all the winter water and leaves, and fish too of course. I then power washed my pond liner and filled up with 750 gallons of fresh water. (I do that every year)

I put in the necessary chlorine drops and the 1/4 cup of this stuff along with two capfuls of pond bacteria which was also recommended. The water was crystal clear and the fish looked very happy for one week then I couldn't see them anymore!!!!! The water is soooooo green the fish have to be within 2 inches of the top to be seen. I put in a 1/4 cup each day for the next week and it showed no improvement. This extra amount of chemicals can't be good for the fish. Very disappointed. I'm going back to the UV light on my filter and chalk this up to experience. As a matter of fact I ordered the Laguna (PT 262) Original ClearFlo 1400 Kit which has a built in UV light. I'll be getting it tomorrow. I hope the fish are still alive down there in the abyss.

Exotic Environments Australian Barrier Reef with Clam Aquarium Ornament

My little fish really likes this reef. It's very colorful and there's enough room inside it for her to swim around or hide out. She goes in and out of there a lot. I like the bright colors and how it looks in the tank. It's also not too high so she has plenty of room to swim around above it. The item arrived in very good condition. I received it very quickly. It's a good purchase.

I got this for my daughter to put in her baby BiOrb. It fits through the top and looks great inside. Her Betta fish, Milo, loves to swim through the holes even though when we first put it in his tank he was a little afraid of it! The colors are very beautiful and it really adds color and life to the tank. Great buy.

Both fish decor boxes mutilated, red sea decor cracked in half, while the outer box and keyboard box in perfect condition. Did the packer not notice? Or just not care?

This is pretty decent in my 10 gallon, however the paint job looks rushed on it. The clam specifically looks pretty bad, like a child painted it. For the price it's nothing I'm to surprised about. I personally won't order from Amazon Blue Ribbon pet products again, but this is nice and cheap if your willing to take the risk of their product quality control and poor packaging.

Coralife 05508 Mini Flourescent Colormax Lamp, 10-Watt

I have had aquariums all my life since five years of age, when my uncle bought me a 15-liter (5-gallon) plexiglass aquarium and introduced me to fishkeeping. For most of my aquariums, I normally used fluorescent lamps. Because I moved to the U.S. and my new job requires a lot of travel, I have forgotten about fishkeeping for a while.

Recently I decided to get a small aquarium for my 2-year-old son. I bought a 10-gallon (38-liter) aquarium starter kit with everything, including a hood and light. The light came with two 15 watt incandescent bulbs. The incandescent bulbs (30 watts together) were heating the small aquarium water up to 29C (84F) during the day. On top of that, too powerful light will cause algae to grow quickly. As a general rule, 0.5 watt of light per liter is a right choice. In other words, my 38 liter (10-gallon) aquarium would need no more than 20 watt (not 30 watt) bulbs altogether. So I've found this 10 watt Aqueon Coralife Mini Fluorescent Colormax Lamp on amazon and ordered only one to test it first.

When I received the bulb, I decided to compare the fluorescent with incandescent, so I put one of each on the light. You could definitely tell the difference: fluorescent gives a nice brighter light (despite being 5 watts lower powered than incandescent), while the incandescent bulb was giving a yellowish light. The aquarium water seems cleaner with the light coming from this bulb. I have also posted a photo of this under customer images: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/permalink/mo2BEZRXVJR51QA/B0002AQ444/ref=cm_ciu_images_pl_link

Apart from keeping the water temperature lower and giving bright light, fluorescent lamps consume less energy, which is great.

As some customers noted, this is just one bulb, not two as pictured. Make sure you choose the right bulb: colormax bulb gives nice bright (white) light, while the 50/50 bulb from what I have read gives ultraviolet (blue) light. I never liked those ultraviolet bulbs because especially if you have plants as I do, blue light makes your underwater garden look weird.

So far I am happy with the purchase. I have just ordered the second one, so I could use on the other side of the hood. I wish these bulbs did not cost as much, and I wish that they were sold at local stores.

I used these bulbs to replaced the regular incandescent bulbs that were supplied with my 10 gallon fish tank starter kit (freshwater tank). These bulbs are considerably brighter than the bulbs supplied with my kit. The coloring of the fish was obviously enhanced when viewed under these bulbs and my fish looked more like they did in the fish store when I purchased them.

As for temperature, I have not seen obvious increases in water condensation or salt build up on the clear plastic under my hood, directly beneath these bulbs. Further, I have not seen any obvious increase in algae growth.

Again, these bulbs are very bright and you may want to consider replacing your bulbs one at a time with these so the fish can acclimate.

Shipping was on time with no problems.

Perfect.

Buy Coralife 05508 Mini Flourescent Colormax Lamp, 10-Watt Now

Okay, so I have been google-ing more information about Coralife Colormax bulbs and if they work with planted aquariums but could NOT find any info so decided to purchase one anyway. Well, it works alright, it keeps plants alive and growing (my anacharis plants grow about maybe an inch or two weekly). The color is not as bright as you would expect to see (compared to that of a 6500k bulb), also the leaves on my anacharis plants do look vivid green, however, my plants could look a lot more "alive" or "happier". While I do like the color it gives off, many people do seem to dislike the dimmer color it gives off, however, perhaps if paired with a 6500k CFL, that works just great. I recommend this CLF light bulb for a low light planted aquarium, however, if you are looking for more live looking plants I say just skip this bulb and go for a 6500k CFL instead.

It's good product to use for aquarium light.

Because my light hood only takes blubs so I had terrible finding one but here it is.

I got this bulb to replace incandescent bulb that came with my small 10gal fish tank. This bulb was a really great upgrade as it improved the brightness but was not too much. I was initially considering going with LED but getting the right size was an issue and so was the cost; this bulb did the trick. If you have fish that doesn't like bright light or there aren't enough plants in your tank, you should consider getting some shelter for your fish if you upgrade to this bulb. I would not recommend getting anything brighter if you're looking for a bulb for a 10gal tank. This bulb may be too bright for a smaller tank so make you decision based on the kind of fish you have.

Hagen Laguna Pro Skimmer Net with Handle

I've been using this skimmer net on my small water pond (about 300 gallons) for about two weeks and I am very happy with it. The handle can be adjusted to the right length so that I don't have to bend down, and the net is fine enough to scoop up even the grime at the bottom of my pond. And the plastic guard at the top of the frame protects the net from being torn when I scrape on the pond floor. I highly recommend it.

This is the first net I have had that has not torn or broken. I have a concrete pond so the rim guard is exactly what I needed.

Hydro II Sponge Pro Filter - Up to 20 gallons

Most aquarium filters now use a motor to force water through some kind of filter pad which must be replaced at intervals. However, before there were reliably sealed electric motors, most home aquariums moved water using the "airlift" principle, in which a rising column of bubbles pulled water through the filtering material. This is an elegant and just about failsafe method. Debris in the tank cannot ever jam the external air pump which feeds the filter, and if electricity is interrupted, the filter cannot lose siphon, it simply starts bubbling again when power is restored to the air pump. Many fish love to play in the rising stream of bubbles.

Hydro Sponge filters, first marketed in the 1990's, are a more recent application of the airlift. Hydro Sponge II is intended for aquariums up to 20 gallons. Made of dense, strong plastic with a weighted base which holds the sponge up away from the aquarium bottom, they dismantle easily for cleaning of the sponge. The pores within the sponge provides an enormous surface area for colonization by beneficial bacteria providing very thorough biological filtration. They can be powered by an air pump with or without an airstone (using an airstone will give finer bubbles and make less noise), or with an electric powerhead for those with larger tanks or who simply feel the need for more energetic water movement.

It is difficult to imagine such a simple device working well. Surprisingly, they are excellent, and can be used as the only filter in the tank for many applications. I've used them on tanks sized from 10 gallons up to 75 gallons, always with good results. The local fish store where I shop has an expensive trickle filter for their dozens of tanks, and every single freshwater tank also has a Hyrdo Sponge or similar sponge filter as well. Apparantly the sponge is doing something which the trickle filter doesn't?

Maintainence is as simple as the filter. When you perform your periodic aquarium water change, (20% every week) save some of the old water in a bucket. Separate the top and bottom parts of the filter and remove the sponge from the tank. Squeeze it out in the bucket. See all the stuff which the sponge removed from the water? Reinstall the sponge and refill your tank. Go have dinner with the money you saved not purchasing replacement filter cartridges.

In sum, a clever and elegantly simple device which works very well.

I cannot understand why this product is so difficult to find in local big-box pet supply stores, except that it keeps you from returning to purchase replacement filters on a monthly basis, which incidentally can become quite expensive over time. A great money saving filter that works better than more expensive "power-filter" units you can buy off the shelf.

If you do a little online research you may find that the combination of this type of filter with a "power head" aerator will not only keep your aquarium cleaner and help your fish stay healthier, but it will also save you time and money as a result of its simple design. By merely rinsing the filter periodically, you will keep your aquarium cleaner without all the hassles of draining your aquarium regularly or buying replacement charcoal filter bags as is the case with popular "power filters" found in most big-box stores.

I have a small 10 gallon tank that I retrofitted with some 1 1/4" hose to make the Hydro II sponge filter (20 gal) fit properly. I should have bought the 10 gallon version that is not quite as tall. Now my tank stays cleaner, longer, and I am pleased not to have to drain my aquarium every ten days because of "power-filter" clogs or failure.
