AquaClear Quick Filter Powerhead Attachment (fits all sizes AquaClear Powerheads)
Buy AquaClear Quick Filter Powerhead Attachment (fits all sizes AquaClear Powerheads) Now
The AquaClear Quick Filter is a pretty effective water polisher. There isn't much else that you can say about it. That is what the Quick Filter was designed for and essentially all it does.The AquaClear Quick Filter Refill Cartridge filter sleeves have a fine mesh that prevents all but the most minuscule particles from passing through; great for polishing water but because of this, the AquaClear Quick Filter clogs fast. I use the filter only after gravel vacuuming or any disturbances in my substrate. It will clear my 150 gallon tank in about 12 hours with an AquaClear 70 Powerhead on full.
The filter comes with two plastic media cages that the filter sleeve wraps around. These cages also serve as a place for carbon, peat or zeolite to be added, but because the filter clogs quickly, these media baskets are fairly pointless other than to wrap the filter sleeves around.
The upside of The AquaClear Quick Filter is that it is exactly what it says it is, a 'quick' filter, and as a quick filter, the AquaClear is perfect. As a biological or chemical filter, the AquaClear Quick Filter is essentially useless. But that is what other filters are for, right?I use the Quick Filter in my water dragon enclosure. It doesn't get much easier. I always have one ready to go and swap them out as needed. I also reversed the internals and added ammo-carb to the filter.
Want AquaClear Quick Filter Powerhead Attachment (fits all sizes AquaClear Powerheads) Discount?
i would continue to use this filter but ts a littl to tall for my 10g nano setup i would think people with 20+g tanks wouldnt have this issue but when i install this on my aquaclear 20 powerhead its almost the height of the tank!!!! so i could use it but i dont want my powerhead that high.... but will save if i need in a pinchTuesday, November 4, 2014
Two Little Fishies ATLPB2 Phosban 150gm
Buy Two Little Fishies ATLPB2 Phosban 150gm Now
This stuff works great for quickly removing high-levels of phosphates, but once you have that under control I highly recommend removing this and replacing it with a bag of Chemi Pure Elite. The PhosBan cakes up, causes channeling (inefficient flow thru) and can break-apart sending brown powder into your tank). You can remove the contents of the Chemi Pure Elite from its bag and put into right into your reactor! You'll keep your phosphates in check and remove other unwanted chemicals and impurities while your at it. Water will be crystal clear.****** UPDATE TO THIS POST ********
After some experimentation, i found that it is best to keep the Chemi Pure Elite in its bag when you put it in the reactor. This is because the resins can make their way up and into your tank or sump. If your reactor can't handle the whole bag, take some out and save it for the next time. Follow instructions on the Chemi Pure container for rinsing the media and, once you have it in the reactor, run the first gallon of water out into a bucket. Also, VERY IMPORTANT, if you leave it in too long, the Chemi Pure will absorb lots of things that can get rancid. My first bag was ready for change after just 60 days. I'm not sure why, but maybe the effectiveness of the media is amplified in the reactor(??)

This does exactly what it claims to, at least in my experience. It comes with a little filter bag in case you don't have a Phosban reactor to put it in. It lasts a long time too. The only reason I didn't rate it all 5 stars is that I find it kind of a pain to put it in my filter. It doesn't fit in there very well. I'm sure that if I had a Phosban reactor I would overcome that problem and rate it all 5 stars.Two Little Fishies ATLPB2 Phosban 150gm great price. x x x x x x x x x x x xSaturday, October 25, 2014

5283 GPH Submersible Water Pump Pond Pump Fountain Waterfall Pump
Edit:07Jun13: Hooked it up a week ago and man can this pump move water. It is the return pump for our 240 gallon reef tank and it really moves the detritus around for filtration. Down side; it runs warm. So to fix this, I have a fan blowing on the sump. Eventually going to need a chiller.

Lixit Corporation DLX0686 No Drip Dog Top-Fill Water Bottle, 44-Ounce
Update--my sister (who is more experienced with dogs than I am) opined that the dog could very well be getting more water than it seemed. She said dogs don't get very much by lapping water up, either. It apparently just seems like they do. Anyway--she convinced me to give the bottle another chance, and to note how much the dog actually consumed by paying attention to how much water was missing, not how much dripped at any time from the spout. So I tried again. The dog laid down and seemed to be quite happy licking the spout, so I left her there. In two minutes, he'd punctured both the side and the top of the bottle. So, I learned this bottle is not for big chewers. Now I'm looking for a glass bottle. Sigh......

This "No Drip" bottle is FALSE ADVERTISING, either that or I got a bad bottle. I must say, if it had worked...I would have no problem giving this product 5 stars because it is so versatile in the fact it can attach to the outside or inside of the cage with out any tools to assemble. The snap in feature allows you to place the water bottle anywhere in the cage and you can pivot the bottle to whichever angle you choose. The flip top cap only makes it that much more convenient rather than taking it off a metal stand or unscrewing the ball point cap to refill. However, all these great features are USELESS when the bottle will not stop dripping! I just received the bottle and immediately put it up, I thought I would give it a little time to seal off the water from coming out though it's not suppose to have a problem because it does not operate like the other vacuum ball point dispensers. Well one drenched towel and whole bottle of water later....still dripping. I'm being patient here, so I gave it a run again. Filling the bottle up and placing a glass cup to catch the water drips. A few hours have gone by and the dripping is still happening. I don't suppose this is normal.Update: I have been contacted by the seller, they apologized and had notified me they would send a new bottle...never received a replacement.

I have never had a bottle that lived up to it's claims. This bottle meets and exceeds them. No more worries about a bottle leaking. Works perfectly every time you fill it. And because it doesn't work on vacuum, it never needs to be cleaned. Dirty water never gets pulled back up into the tube. Lixit is awesome for coming up with this.Want Lixit Corporation DLX0686 No Drip Dog Top-Fill Water Bottle, 44-Ounce Discount?
Well, I do have to agree with the other reviewers claiming this thing leaks. The first time I added water, there was a steady drip. I was actually very close to returning it, when i decided to mess around with it a little. What I found was, you have to be VERY careful when tightening the water dispensing end. It turns out I over tightened it initially. I backed the end off a bit and all of the sudden...PERFECTION. Doesn't leak a drop now. I knocked a star off because this obviously should have been stated in the directions on the packaging. My Lab pup picked up on how it works almost immediately. All in all, im satisfied with my purchase.Saturday, October 4, 2014
Wavemaster Pro Wavemaker
I contacted the Tech Support and promised a couple times to have tech call me back, but never received a callAlthough I cancelled this item (there is no problem with it, actually I have read forums stating it's a great item to have its better than others.) I am giving the "SELLER 5 STARS" review. My husband found the item locally and I had to cancel this item. Not only did they cancel the item, but personally sent me an email advising they did so. It was very fast, no hassles, no questions asked. This is a trusted seller, I would recommend them to others and yes I will purchase from them in the future. I am very happy with the service and prompt response. Thank you.

Buy Aqueon Betta Divider For Minibow 2.5 Gallon Now
I hate to make things worse for the seller here, but I can tell just by the appearance of this thing that its not really sufficient to separate two bettas. I tried to keep 2 in a tank with a divider just like this, they were easily able to see each other through it and nipped at each other through the holes. A good divider is one that doesn't let the bettas see each other at all.Read Best Reviews of Aqueon Betta Divider For Minibow 2.5 Gallon Here

I am giving this 1 star because none of my goldfish will eat this stuff. I have 30 goldfish in an outdoor pond. I fed this to them and for whatever reason they will not eat it. Its been 3 days now and the food is still at the bottom of the pond uneaten. Maybe you may have better luck than I did. The only plus to this is the container is large and u get a lot for your money. Its just too bad my fishes do not like it. I went back to feeding them API Goldfish Pellet, 4.0-OunceRead Best Reviews of Microbe Lift Mini Pellets Koi & Goldfish Food Here

Fluval Ribbed Hosing Bracket for 104-404, 105-405
Well, I now upgrade from aquarium to outdoor 300 gallon fish tank. I bought Rubber Maid stock tank. Although I design a new pump and filter system that is adequate for the size and fishes. I continue to use FLUVAL 305 as a supplemental filter . . well primarily because I want to use the strong jet stream to keep that surface water moving. To my pleasant surprise, these brackets also fit with Rubber Maid tank. it just happened that I accidentally break the top cover of these brackets recently that I need to order the replacements (I tried different ways, but nothing work better than this bracket).
I found the replacement parts from PETSMART to be the best (price $6.99 each + shipment charge). Although it is for 304, but checking with Fluval.com, it appears to use the same ribbed hose size etc. Sorry, AMAZON sellers, I just don't understand why this simple plastic bracket will be sold for this quoted price here plus outrages shipping charge.

Oceanic 82105 BioCube Original Replacement Filter Cartridges, 2-Pack
As such, when replacing the filter do not clean any other part of the filter assembly. Do that a week after changing the filter.
I also do keep the last "full" filter and after rinsing in drained water I tuck it on top of the filter mechanism under the door so it stays damp. When I do a water change I use that filter for a few hours after the change to catch all the junk that gets knocked loose in the water, then toss it and use a new one.

26W Blue White Energy Saving Coral Plant Refugium Bulb For Finnex
Buy 26W Blue White Energy Saving Coral Plant Refugium Bulb For Finnex Now
I had bought about six (or eight?) of these Bulbs, allure by the 26W and price. I put 2 of these in my planted 2Galons tank. At the beginning I was happy as it seemed to be a great deal and my plants were growing happy. However, after two or three months max, one of the bulbs went off. No problem, bad luck, I thought, and proceeded to replace the bad one. However, the same history has been going on and on, on a max of 2 months life for a bulb. I really like the bright and the price, but it is a pain having to replace at least too frequently.I think I will move back to my old brand, less power (20W) but more dependable (+1 year).

I put two of these in my 14 gallon nano reef, and it looks great! You can really tell the difference from the 10 watt alternatives. My tank is responding well to the new light. A good buy!Want 26W Blue White Energy Saving Coral Plant Refugium Bulb For Finnex Discount?
I put two of these in my 10g nano saltwater tank and boy was it bright! Tank had way more then enough light, though it for sure is best for a refugium. Too much white light, zoo's didn't respond amazingly well to it, but it worked, star polyps sustained, didnt really grow a ton. Biggest let down is after only MAYBE 2 months the bulb burnt out. Now I have one of these on half my tank and a 10w 50/50 on the other I got from Petsmart. That side isnt as bright but the corals respond MUCH better. All and all, the light is bright, and would be great for refugiums, but keep it out of the main tank for sure.Friday, November 22, 2013
Marina Naturals Green Dracena Silk Plant
So far they are holding up well.
Good weighted base.
Well worth the money.I gave it 3 stars because it does not look entirely real. In fact I decided to leave them out of my aquarium. They look better than most fake plant decor but don't mistaken this as something that looks indistinguishable from the real thing. It's good but not fool proof.
