Cat-Life Deluxe Cat Cottage with Lounging Tower & Scratching Post, Blue/Gray - 21 x 14 x 50 Inches

The best thing I ever had for the cat!Arrived perfectly packed,to put together was a pleasure.The cat started to climb it immediately,now is spending all his days on it as if it is a tree.It is made with love and costructed by a person who understands cats.

I've been wanting to buy a cat tower for my cats for a while now, but stores are way too pricey for my liking. I'd make my own but I'm not too good at building things. Anyway, the color and feel of this are really awesome, and for the stuff it comes with I thought the price was really good as well! I'd recommend this, it is sturdy, soft, and entertaining for the cats.

New Life Spectrum Large Fish Formula - 2270 g

In my opinion, this is the best food on the market for African Cichlid fish and can be used with some New World Cichlids as well. It promotes healthy fish and good color. I feed it to all the African Cichlids that I sell through my web site: The small pellet size of this food can feed any African Cichlid ranging from 1" to 15". It comes in several size containers. I use this size because I carry 800 to 1000 Cichlids and I need the large size to feed them. It also is less expensive to buy in the large size, per ounce. The supplier I bought this food from on Amazon is very good, has a great price, and ships the food quickly. One word of caution with this food. Feed it lightly, especially to Peacocks. It has a fairly high meat protein content and too much can cause bloat.

Does not stay afloat as long as I wanted it to and the pellet size is smaller than I though, but my cichlids loves them. I hope there are larger size, like 6-12mm due to the size of my fishes.

My Malawi Cichlids love it, BUT it nothing like the Cichlid formula. I called New Life before I bought this and they said it is the same ingredients as the Cichlid formula. Well after I used it the first time I knew that I was not going to like it. I have a 125 gallon tank and was shocked to see how the small amount of food (3mm) that I gave to the fish turned into this "orange cloud" that moved across the tank. They ate all of the food before it hit the gravel. It is very messy. I have to give a very small feeding with the (3mm)and finish with the (1mm). I found that I need to clean my wet/dry much more often. I also found that I have to do a larger water change to get back to clear water. The clean up hassle is not worth the larger food size and will go back to the (1mm Cichlid Formula) when I finish this 5lb bucket.

Pressure-Flo Filter

I purchased this model for my small pond, which is partly in the shade most of the day. I have read that the pond water clears up after several days of use. This is true. My pond was completely green, and I can only see my fishes, when they come up to feed at the surface. After about 2-3 days of constant use, the pond started to show clarity in the water. I'm able to see a few inches below the surface. Today is the 5th day of usage and now I'm able to see at least 10" down. The water in the pond is not as green any more. Of course, I removed and rinsed off the water pump filter everyday. I also took the opportunity to use the backwash feature to clean the UV filter as well. This was very easy to do. I use the collected backwash water to water my flowers and garden. Just note that when you use the backwash, water from your pond is lost. So it needs to be refill to the same level as before. I'm quite happy with the way the unit is working. I love the locking and quick release (in/out) nozzles. However, this unit will only fit 3/4" to 1 1/4". I wished the nozzles extended to 1/2", which would have made installing extremely easy. My small pond has a small water pump, which can only fit a 1/2" hose. I have a coil of 1/2" hose, but I can't use. I had to stop by Lowe to buy a roll of 20' 3/4" flexible hose and a 3/4" to 1/2" adapter. For this reason, I only gave this product a 4 stars instead of 5 stars. Also, I was surprised to see the unit is quite bulkier than I had expected.

Update: Just want to let everyone knows that after about 10 days, my pond is clear all the way to the bottom. I can see all the fishes hiding at the bottom when I approach. I'm able to spot out debris, such as leaves, etc. which helped with the cleaning. I'm glad I got this unit, and now I'm enjoying my pond immensely.

This is a really nice filter to have on my pond, about 1000-1500 gallons. I claims its only good for 1400, but that depends on what you actually have in the pond. When I first established my pond I put in Pond Zyme, and Marble chips. The marble chips left a white cloudy water, however this filter took the cloudy out in about 24 hours.

After opening it up, I do not believe that the self cleaning back wash system will work as good as it claims. They are using two arms that scrap the sides of the foam inside to knock off the sediment, which then you can dump somewhere else, instead of the pond. This concept seems good, but without actually taking out the filter, there is no way to get this anywhere near clean enough. But it does do a good job once the pond has some bacteria.

I do wish the filter had its own pump. This is because I purchased a separate pump to go with this at 1800 GPH, of course my flow restrictions are blocking me down to 1400 or so. The 1800 GPH pump is really small, it could have easily fit inside of this filter.

Next, I really wish this had screw on pipe nipples instead of these clip in place version. Yes its nice when you need to take it appart, but it is one pain to find the right connections for setting up the back wash system.

Having studied the various options on how to build my own KOI pond for the last 3 years, I am now settled on a very comfortable 300 Gallon tank with a design that will allow me to add a little more fishes as needed.

Here are the components and my reviews for each of them

300 Gallon Rubber Maid stock tank (bought from ZOROTOOL.COM ** because it is $100-$150 cheaper for the unit with free delivery. sorry Amazon !!)

Laguna Pressure-Flo 700 UVC Filter (ASIN: B001BOBPBM)

TotalPond PF850 Pressurized Biological Filter (ASIN: B004DL0Y4O)

Danner Mag Drive Pump Model 9.5 -950 gph (ASIN: B0002568G8)

(1) Rubber Main tank

Well, it is a nice size tank for KOI. I now have 7 KOI's sizes between 6 12 inches. I plan to have may be 2-3 more in the next few months. I know that 300 Gallon may not be a good size for them after they grow to >24 inch but I intend to make it work with over filtering design. To me, this will be several more years, as I am not the "over feeding" owner :-)

The tank is made with good strong and "fish safe" material. It is quite sturdy in design and able to handle the load of water (completely filled up) without a doubt. it just happened that it rained a lot once I got this tank, so I tested to full capacity with rain water (from down sprout) for a few days. by putting it on my backyard concrete patio. So far, no sign of bending or cracking. The drain plug (included) comes with threaded (1.5 in OD PVC adapter) was very handy to drain out those water when I was ready to move it for real installation.

(2) Danner Mag Drive Pump

This is the first component of my "over filtering" design. The pros recommend that the whole volume of the pond be completely circulated through filter at least twice in an hour. In my case, a 600 GPH pump should be enough, but I compensate for the smaller pipe and some flow rate loss etc. I estimated that my actual flow rate out of my system will still be somewhat 700+/-50 GPH from this pump. The pump is made with good quality material, the only moving part is that impeller. Having Magnetic drive technology is extremely important, because it will be running 24/7 for 365 days a year. I want to make sure that the pump will not pumping money out of my bank as much as it does for the water. Having checking calculation from may reputable web site, this thing will cost me around $3-$5 a month in electricity. Not bad at all. I gave it 5 stars.

(3) TotalPond PF850 Pressurized Biological Filter

In my design, I am looking for some kind of enclose trap. Such that, the unwanted debris of leaves, fish drops etc. will be collected here first. This way there will be much less of this stuff that will go to the next filtering stage. It turns out, this thing come with it's own sponge and bio balls so it serves as an extra bio filter to my design. This filter is made of some okay type of plastic. The connectors to the water pipe will have to be tighten from the inside of the filter I found this to be a spot where I need to pay a little extra attention. The lid also comes with extra O-ring to prevent leakage but still it has to be really tighten up real good. In my design, my MAG DRIVE pump will push the water straight from the tank into this filter, hence there will be high a pressure for this filter. So, tighten things up really good is very important. This is where I take 1 star from it I found this to be a little tricky to get it just right.

(4) Laguna Pressure-Flo 700 UVC Filter

This is where I expect my real action for my bio filter and algae prevention. Having inspect the unit, I am quite convinced that I have made the right choice. Material is well made with good quality kind. It has a well design bio foam with cleaning blade and back flush if you are the first timer to having back yard pond. Trust me, you need this feature for your filter. It also comes with built-in UV light. Althogh only 11 Watts, I was not quite sure if it will hold. But again, with over filtering design, I hope it will. Only time will tell. Installation and testing was easy to do no big deal for DIY at all. So far, it works well for me I gave it 5 stars.

In my design, it connects like this Rubber Maid tank -> 3/4 pipe -> MAG DRIVE PUMP -> 3/4 pipe -> Total Pond ->3/4 pipe -> Laguna Filter -> Rubber Maid Tank

I'm in GA, our winter is not that cold but there are days where it gets below freezing. So, with helps of my kid, I decided to bury 1/3 of the tank into the ground. The filter + pump are at ground level. When filling it up, I can still get the benefit of gravity to help flow the water. Digging + Installation to me 1.5 days. I filled it up and run it to check for leaks by the end of the second day all leakages were fixed. That when I start to add the enzyme (same thing I used with my earlier aquarium tank) / salt and stuff to prepare the water. Then I let it run for 8 days to make sure the good bacteria are well adjusted. Testing pH it was perfect.

My KOI's have been living in this system now for 2 weeks. The location of my pond is such that it has some shade most of the day from near by trees. Only between 11am 2pm that it will be in full sun. I build a floating basket (24 in diameter) that I plan to plant water lily this thing is a perfect shade for the fish during full sun. I noticed that between day 3-5 the water was a little less than crystal clear but it is still clear. After that, it slowly return to crystal clear I guess the bacteria was adjusting to the increase amount of nitrate and stuff that my KOI's dumped out.

So far, I am pretty happy with this design. Well, it seems to be working for 2 weeks now (fingers' crossed). My neighbors like it and asked that I share the design. I will do some drawing and pictures when I have a moment.

Total cost (excluding the fish), my system costs me

Aquarium Divider System in Black

I purchased two of these. I have one 55 gallon aquarium, where two 'Jack Dempsey' cichlids decided to spawn. This device keeps the rest of the fish safe when the JDs are trying to chase them out of the tank. Peace is restored there.

I also have a 29 gallon Eclipse tank where I 'try' to raise any fry/feeders. I had a lot of 'Convict cichlid' young ones there and needed to make some safe space for the little J Dempseys. This worked well.

These things seem a bit flimsy, once you have them installed they hold their place well. If you want to use the metal clips, be advised that your normal top fixtures will not fit well over the clips

This is not an 'invisible' divider, I will try to post some pictures at my web site and provide a link here. My choice was, let fish kill each other, or have some peace (with a little ugliness). I chose peace.

Enjoy

I bought some adorable puffer fish for my aquarium, but the little devils enjoy attacking other fish, so I had to either isolate them, or find them a new home. I saw this item and figured I'd give it a try. Easy to assemble and set up, but absolutely ugly in the aquarium. The side guards are an ugly black and really take away from the natural look of the aquarium. A solid piece of plexiglass with holes would have been preferable, but as a cheap quick fix, this works all right. Now the gourami and pleco can sleep soundly at night knowing their butts aren't being chewed on.

I wanted to set this up in a 55 gallon planted tank to keep two strains of guppies apart. After 30 minutes of messing around with this, I decided to just let them mix.

Where to begin? There are a series of annoying things about this divider. It reminds me of the book reviewer who wrote "this is not a book to be taken lightly. It should be thrown with great force." That's how I feel about this divider.

Let's start with how the perforated barrier sheet slides into the plastic edges that touch the walls of the tank. The barrier sheet slides in like a report cover (and bends like one, too), and the plastic edges are so much like the report cover binding clips that I wonder if they aren't actually report cover binding clips.

The problem is that with even a little tug, the barrier slides out of the clip. I got this divider ALMOST set up three times and then moved the plastic edges just a bit so they were flush with the side of the tank walls (this takes forever... why can't the connection points be suction?) only to barely touch the barrier with one finger, and it slid out of the plastic clips. And then you can not get the barrier back in the clip you have to take all three parts out of the tank, slide each side of the barrier into the clips, and start again. If this product is ever remade, the barrier should STAY in the clips once you slide it in.

The other major issue with this is the clips that attach to the top of the tank. Getting them to stay put is hard, but doable, but getting them to stay put AND positioning the plastic edges that are supposed to be flush against the tank walls is nearly impossible. And if you move anything even a little bit too far, you've just slid the barrier out of the side clips, and you get to start all over.

I am going to try gluing (with silicon) the barrier into the side wall clips. If that could stay put, maybe I could use this divider.

Hagen Marina Betta Aquarium Starter Kit, Sun Swirl

I used this product for a time for my Betta Fish, Sun Tzu. HE liked the tank, it was bigger than the cup I bought him in, and he was making beautiful bubble nests (meaning he was looking to breed, and he was secure in raising his fry in the tank.) However, I do not breed my Betta, but it was good to know he was feeling so confident in only a half gallon of water. I wall mounted it to protect him from the cats, and bought the LED light (sold separately) and that was pretty cool. First I bought a plastic plant to go with, then I moved to a live plant because I heard they improve water quality. Then I researched and realized he needed tropical water, so I bought a thermometer. I saw his water temp. was fluctuating between night and day (duh), and I was worried the temperature flux was putting to much stress on his tiny fishy body. I was also getting very tired of needing to do water changes every four days. SO... I ditched this tank and bought a 10 gallon tank complete with lighted hood, and power filter for less than what I payed for this tank (full price at the local national pet store chain). I put in a thermostat heater and some full spectrum lights (for growing aquarium plants) and bada-bing bada-boom, I have a beautiful planted tank, the center piece to my apartment, a VERY happy Betta fish with plenty of room to stretch his pretty little fins, plenty of places for him to hide if he wishes, and a tank that requires significantly LESS maintenance than this half gallon. That's just the up and down of it. I still keep this tank around for a back up, in case something needs quarantining, or if the Zombie Apocalypse happens and I need to take him and run. (I had a dream the apartment was on fire, and I used this to rescue him. Not a bad idea! ;D)

IN CONCLUSION: This tank is not cruelty. My fish was lively and making bubble nests when he lived there for three months, but in all honesty, a non-filtered tank requires WAY more maintenance, and if you slack off, you could end up seriously hurting or killing your fish. Ammonia, Nitrates, Nitrites, all things you need to be wary of, and it's so much easier to just get a proper tank, something with a thermostat heater and a filter. Betta need water between 75 and 80 degrees to live comfortably. They are tropical fish.

WALL MOUNTING: Yes, you can screw it to your wall, but then the tank part is removable from the wall mount, making for easy water changes. You do not have to unscrew and remove the whole thing from the wall to change the water. You simply lift the tank off of it's wall mount/stand, do your do, and place it back. SUPER SUPER easy! Props for that, it's the best wall mounted tank money can buy. If you're cool with the constant water changes, then go for it.

Betta need at least 2.5 gallons and either need daily or every other day water changes without a filter (really just simpler to get a filter for the tank), and a water temperature between 70 and 80 degrees (so most need a heater). This tank doesn't really allow any of these requirements. Another reviewer said it wasn't cruelty and her betta was happy I sincerely disagree. Her fish may have been happier than it was, but that's because it has only been in breeding tanks (basically the size of this tank) and the cup you get him in from the store. He's happier than he was, but that isn't saying much, and he still won't be very happy in this setup. This allows for next to no decorations, which betta like since they provide hiding places and places to explore. The only thing I'd put in one of these is a marimo moss ball. It isn't worth the money, just look into a better tank setup so your betta can really be happy.

Deep Blue Professional ADB12881 Bettastik Sub Heater for Aquarium, Mini, 7.5-watt

This little heater does the trick and keeps my bettas warm and comfortable. The only drawback is that there is no light to tell that it is on, and .. there is no way to control the temperature. They are preset to only get to one temperature and that's it! My bettas were swimming in water that I knew was way too cold for them, and after I purchased two of these heaters, one for each bowl, they seem much happier and are definitely more active in the bowl. The cord hanging on the bowl doesn't look great, but you gotta do what you gotta do to keep your loved one's happy! My bettas look healthier since warming up the water with these heaters and the product has worked great. I have owned it for a couple of months and have had no trouble. The water doesn't overheat and I have about a 1-1/2 gallon decorative bowl (one for each betta)set up with live plants and decorative colored stones. The heater works well -I only wish I could control the temperature and that it had a light of some kind to tell me it is on and working -now I have to place my hands on the glass or look at the thermometer to tell that it is on and doing its job. Just to have a little red light that I could glance at from across the room, telling me that the heater is on and working, would assure me that my fish are warm, instead of having to check the thermometer or feel the glass. I would recommend this product to a friend and a family member to purchase.

This is a constantly-on heater, so the temperature your aquarium reaches depends on its size and your room temperature. It must be used with a thermometer to make sure you don't overor undershoot your desired temp. If room temperature fluctuates, so will the tank's. (The packaging claims it is "preprogrammed" but in fact there is no program or any temperature control.) It is a compact and apparently well-made device and can easily fit into a small tank. So far I have had no problems with it. It is able to bring my 2 1/2 gal tank up to correct Betta temperature in a 73F room.

I love the look and simplicity of these, and now have 4 of them for our several small tanks. We bought 7.5 watt, 15W and 30W versions, and put them in tanks of the appropriate size (1-6 gallons).

I've noticed that one tank near our radiator is running 82-83 degrees, so I put a lower wattage one in. Same thing, 82 degrees.

Apparently these are NOT "Pre-programmed" with a set temperature in any way. They're just always on.

This means that the will keep your coffee piping hot if you stick it in a small mug, or keep an aquarium sorta warm, depending on the size of the tank and the temperature of your house.

Since all the Heat Stik and Betta Stik heaters we bought all look identical, with no markings to show which is which, I bought a digital electrical meter today and measured them: 7.5W, 7.5W, 7.5W, 7.5W....

They're ALL THE SAME. So not only is the idea of a preset thermostatic control complete bunk, but they're packaging the same product as different things.

I thought this would be great for my tiny desk aquarium, but there is no off switch. So, when left on, the water temp went to 86 degrees. When off, it fell to 68 degrees. So, I purchased a timer. It has "teeth" every 1/2 hour that you can set to go on or off. So, I set the heater to go on and off for an hour at a time every 24 hours. This seemed to do the trick and the water temp is at a constant 80 degrees now. That's all you need to do for this product to perform perfectly!

I bought two of these heaters, for appropriate sized betta tanks. Shortly after adding the heaters, both bettas died. Prior to that they'd both been healthy since I purchased them. I don't believe the tanks got too hot as I repeatedly checked the tank thermometers. It was probably due to user error, but still I wonder. BTW, they are glass so are breakable. I prefer the plastic paddle type heaters now and have had much better luck with them.

In The Bag Cloth Dispenser By Ethical Dog

We already have one of these poo bag holders and just wanted a 2nd to keep on my hands-free running leash. We bought the first one over 2 years ago and it's still almost as good as new. It's been through a lot. We leave it on the leash so we always have a bag on hand. It's been through the rain, dropped and pulled through the mud and snow and still works. The only thing that hasn't done well is the little metal clip but since it has a velcro clip we don't care that the metal one broke. The zipper is still good as new. So, I can only hope the one I just received yesterday holds up as good as the old one!

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the one pictured when I ordered was supposed to have blue paw prints and the one that came in the mail has pink paw prints. It wasn't worth the hassle for me to return it for the correct color.

I had my last one for two years and it would have lasted longer if i hadnt let my dog chew it! it is really the most durable and easy one i have used!

Super Orthopedic Lounge Pet Bed

I used to balk at any dog bed that cost this much money, but I have purchased MANY dog beds and my dog's favorite dog bed was a 6" tall memory foam bed. Unfortunately that is a very large bed and the dimensions of it are too large to fit in my bedroom. I bought this bed because it is the tallest memory foam bed that would fit in the space I have in my bedroom. I need space to walk too afterall. My dog loves this bed too, I'm sure that it is more comfortable for him than the thinner (3") memory foam beds or the ones that are stuffed with loose fill. My only gripe about it is the cover they use for it. According to the company it is completely waterproof, but that also makes it almost as noisy as a plastic tarp. You WILL hear it when your dog moves around on this bed. That being said, I would still highly recommend it.

The snoozer orthopedic senior dog bed appears to be well made with quality materials. My dogs seem to really like it.

Update: 6-4-13 I would give this bed 6 stars if possible! When I unzipped the cover to wash it I found that the sherpa is lined with the same fabric that the rest of the bed is covered with, and the zipper is a heavy duty zipper. :)

It barely fits my medium dog (staffordshire bull terrier) he fits right to the ends and cannot lay down sideways on it. the only parts that fit sidways is head to middle belly. but he likes it and it is very sturdy and should last a long time. the cover does zip off and can be washed, but only unzips half way it will be a bit of a bear to get it off and back on after washing. The top is a thick plush foux sheeps wool. the fabrick is a very thick and coarse cotton or such type fabric. the zipper is Very heavy duty. little scratchy but doesn't seem to bother the dog.

All Glass Aquarium AAG21530 Fluorescent Deluxe Hood, 30-Inch

This is a very nice aquarium hood, with flourescent lighting, and it comes with a tube, ready to go!Just plug it in.

Overall very pleased with delivery it was right on schedule. The product is light weight and could break easily if used roughly. I did find the "cut outs" in the back to be a bit of a challenge to "break" for the filter etc. My main concern is that it does not fit up over the aquarium so therefore there is a big possibility that, if not careful, you could end up with the whole thing in the tank!!! A bit dangerous with the lighting and all.

This light and hood is as described and functions well, however the included light bulb is not as bright as some of the others that I have had. Also the included instructions were not for the proper item, but that is not that important. I did have a difficult time cutting out the holes for the filter and heater to fit in the back, maybe there was a trick to it, but like I said I did not have the instructions. Otherwise so far so good.

I used Kent Seasquirts (and still do for other things) but this is the best tool for target feeding your corals. I found that the kent product was good, but it doesn't allow for changable tips.. so you need to get 2 if you want to cut a tip larger for more meaty feedings. With this, you can get a 3 pack of changable tips cut them to fit your needs for particular feedings.

I also like the seringe style.. With the baster style feeders I tend to loose more food trying to gently get it out of the tube with this it's very easy to spot feed individual polyps. great little invention. and you can't beat the amazon price.

I love the spitter with the two birds, it is fun to look at and different from the majority of spitters out there. The 80 gph pump is not strong enough for it. Water dribbles down the side of the birds and onto the rock I have it sitting on. Ive moved it around and adjusted the pump to no avail. It leaks too much water. No I have to buy a bigger pump for it. I wish they sold the spitter without the pump.

The product was shipped in a timely fashion. And arrived on time. But the pump it self is a piece of crap! It worked for about 24hrs. I pulled it out of the pond. Looked it over and could not find anything wrong. So tapped it on the rocks and it started again. Pumped for about 5hrs and has not worked since. Would not recommend this to any one, not even my enenmy!

Small, lightweight spitter. Dimensions given are accurate, only I never can equate the actual numbers until I see the product. Nice length of hose preconnected. Should be used in a windfree area as it topples over easily.

I receivd what I ordered, I just wish I had read description and detail more closely to see what I was really getting.

Leaks out of the body, hose does not remove from the pump and spitter. This product is a lightweight cheaply made p.o.s.

Spio III CO2 Diffuser - Glass Reactor for Aquarium Plants

Just purchased two of these diffusers for my 55 gallon planted aquarium. Received them very quickly and am happy to say that I received exactly what I wanted. Not only do they perform extremely well (producing tiny little bubbles that are easily absorbed by the water before they reach the surface), but they look really cool too. I am currently using them with a homemade reactor (2 liter soda bottle, some airline tubing, silicon glue and a mixture of 1/2 tsp yeast, 2 cups of sugar and 1.5 liters of warm water) and it works great! I hope to buy a real CO2 system (running on CO2 canisters) when I have a little extra allowance, but now wondering why when my homemade solution works so well. BTW, these diffusers would work just great with a store-bought CO2 system as well. At any rate, I'm very happy with my high-quality product and it is Amazon Prime -bonus!

This product arrived intact and as described. Since it has been in the tank my plants have been thanking me every day. All the plant are "pearling" by mid afternoon and late into the evening and the existence of photosynthesis has become undeniable. I have an Aquatek co2 regulator that is factory set to 30 PSI output pressure and this has enough for great co2 diffusion. As mentioned by other users, the bubbles are a little big at first and then subside to smaller sizes after a few hours as the ceramic begins to soak. This is my first co2 diffuser so I don't really have anything to compare it to but this certainly serves it's intended purpose well and most bubbles don't make it to the surface of my tank.

Biggest complaint I had was that it did not come with a suction cup....... How am I supposed to attach it to the tank? Stuff it into the substrate? Luckily I had a suction cup laying around the house that was close enough in size to work but is not really my permanent solution. Now I have to find a place to order custom suction cups or find another route. I'm glad I had something close enough laying around.

This diffuser creates a very fine co2 flow, no issues so far, although when I received it there was a good sized chip in the glass just above the ceramic diffuser disk, I took a chance at not wasting a week or two in returning based on the overall cost. I was happy to see that once pressure was applied that it did not crack the glass, would be 5 stars if not for the chipped glass.

Works well, small and efficent. Great for small aquariums anywhere between 5-30 gallons.

Received this in once piece, however the unit leaked where the spiral meets the inside of the cup. There are also leaks around the diffuser disc, causing some pretty large bubbles. This seems to be a cheap Chinese knock-off. I'm pretty disappointed.

Komodo Kricket Keeper

I have this cricket keeper, have used it for years and love it! I didn't have crickets escaping at first, so when it first happened I thought that they had escaped between the plastic bag and the keeper itself. I finally realized that some were escaping through the tiny square hole just above each of the tubes. The holes are so small that you wouldn't think the crickets could squeeze through, but they do. I solved the problem by putting a small piece of scotch tape over each one of these small holes. It doesn't hurt the crickets at all; as a matter of fact, they now last longer, due to the fact that none are escaping! There are apparently no toxic fumes from the tape, they still have plenty of air, etc., etc. This is one of the most useful "critter" keepers I have ever had.

I've owned several cricket-keeping devices and to date this is my favorite. Although I have several reptiles ranging from Leopard Geckos to a Box Turtle, I don't buy very many crickets. This is a great product for keeping 1-2 dozen medium or large crickets. So if you're feeding 6 or 7 reptiles, this is NOT for you!

The problem: If I put any more than 1 or 2 dozen in, they escape. I don't know how, but I don't have a problem with "escapees" if I keep less than 2 dozen. I still deal with the occasional escape artist though, but consider the fact that you are keeping insects in your house and there are bound to be at least a few running loose in your house anyway.

The Kricket Keeper is easy to clean (especially when you line it with a small clear plastic bag), easy to access for feeding/watering, and easy to get the crickets out with the wand. A great "starter" cricket housing item, or for those of us who use very few crickets and only feed them as a treat!

I have various sizes of Lee's Cricket Keeper's and they don't even come close to the quality of the Exo Terra Cricket Pen's

Both have the same Removable ventilated lid, however Lee's (feeder) tubes slide into the lid rather then the body of the Keeper like Exo's does. A BIG minus.

Both have "Cricket dispensers" Lee's is round while Exo's is square, no biggie.

Here are the BIG differences:

Lee's has these "Lame" round flaps that (suppose) to cover the tube opening when pulled out and almost all of the time they (flaps) fall off!

The Exo Terra Cricket Pen has a drop down "Flapper door" built into the the inside of the pen's sides (not the lid) that will never fail.

Simply slide the tube out of the Exo Terra Cricket Pen and the flapper drops down automatically to prevent escapes and easily reopens when the tubes are reinserted.

The Exo Includes a cricket food tray and water bowl tray with tapered steps (that includes a sponge to retain water) held in place by the (inserted) square tubes that keep the trays from sliding around. They can easily be removed for refilling and cleaning. A very nice touch!

At the time of this review both are eligible for "Prime" with the Exo costing ONLY 22 cents more!

Plus the Exo has a nice shinny Black cover.

I removed the sponge from the water tray and fill it with Fluker's Cricket Quencher

I bought this item to house my crickets for my hungry beardies and panther chameleon. Unfortunately though crickets CAN and DO escape from this item. My son was wondering what was crawling on him in the middle of the night and we discovered crickets all over his room. I tried placing the cricket keeper in the bathtub and sure enough when I returned later there were crickets in the tub that had escaped (and yes the lid was snapped tight and the two tubes had their covers on them). Now I have to keep the keeper tied up in plastic bags when crickets are inside until I can find another cricket keeper. So unless you want to be a Kricket Wrangler .....

I bought the Kricket Keeper to hold crickets for a juvenile leopard gecko. It did a fair job. I had read about the escapes, we might have had one small cricket escape through the small square holes above the tubes, but we're not sure. Once the gecko grew a bit and could eat the larger crickets that was not a problem anymore.

The part I'm unhappy with is that the clear plastic covers used to cap the black tubes break relatively quickly. We would take the caps off to clean the tubes when we cleaned the keeper. After a few cleaning cycles the caps would crack in half. They give you a few extra caps to use as "dishes", but instead I just used them as replacements as the caps broke. Eventually we just used clear plastic wrap and rubber bands to cover the tubes. The Kricket keeper once fell from the chest of drawers it was on and the clear plastic container cracked (no crickets were in it at the time, we had just finished feeding the last ones to the gecko). The good news is that the container it is a standard size, so I was able to buy a replacement base for a small amount of money.

As the gecko grew we needed a larger keeper to reduce the number of trips to the store. We picked up the Exo Terra cricket pen, Large. I couldn't find it on Amazon, so I ordered it from another online retailer. That one works better, no small hole above the tube to escape from, and the caps are a more flexible plastic which have not broken yet (much longer that it took the Lee's caps to break). I'm not sure how Lee's Kricket Keeper was able to become so ubiquitous (petsmart, petco, amazon), the Exo terro cricket pens are better products. I just wish it were easier to find them. But I guess is doesn't matter for us as we have all the cricket holding pens we need for now.
