PraziPro - 4 oz.- treats up to 480 Gallon

PraziPro - 4 oz.- treats up to 480 GallonThis product worked great in my reef tank, I didn't have to remove any of the corals, I didn't have to catch the fish that had worms.

All I did was apply the medication and with in 3 to 4 days I could see the fish was clearing up.

After the first dose the tapeworms and fluke symptoms my fish were experiencing all but dissapeared. It did not harm my snails, shrimp, plants or biological filtration. How can you go wrong?

It took just one treatment for me to notice a difference in two days. I purchased fish from two different stores in a new tank. Soon after a couple were not doing well and with a new tank I wasn't sure which fish caused the sickness. I ended up treating the entire tank (removing the carbon) and withing a few days everyone looked great!

This is actually my second order (first was a mini bottle) 75 gallon tank.

This is a very powerful and safe product...BUT be prepared for the skimmer to NOT work for over a week. This stuff takes a long time to break down to say the least. Tons of bubbles and over skimm first. The product does say no skimming but had no idea how long that period will be. On the other hand had an emergency with a purple tang and what looked like larger white ulcers out of the blue in over 9 years of perfect health and it was gone in a day with this. So worth having availible.

This one is for parasitic infection. Flukes and worms, ich, and so forth. Examine new fish with a magnifying glass before putting them in the community tank.

Smokehouse Resealable Bag

Smokehouse 100-Percent Natural Chix Mix, 16-OunceThis was the 2nd time that I ordered the Smokehouse USA Chicken Stix. The 1st order had USA printed right on the bag, this one had a USA sticker over the China sticker. In addition, the product looked entirely different. Obviously I am concerned. I pay more to ensure I am not feeding my "fur kids" products from China. If it happens again, I'll stop ordering all Smokehouse products on-line.

My dogs are picky when it comes to treats. They will not eat these chicken sticks. They love the Chicken Chips by the same company, so thought I would try the sticks, but it did not work.

I was very excited to find 100% Natural Dog Treats at a nearby pet store.

I bought the Retriever pork skin ~ label and sticker reads "Made in USA"

GREAT!!!

Second, I purchased the Beef Hooves ~(There is not a label or sticker clarifying where they are from.)

Third, I purchased the Chix Mix ~ The label does indeed read in small print on the back of the package, right hand corner, "PRODUCT OF CHINA",

The sticker label on the front reads, "Product regularly tested to insure quality. Lab tested in the USA."

(So at that point, I figured it is made in China and tested in the USA)

Does that mean they test every bag? I doubt it.

I just got off the phone with the Smokehouse customer service department.

Their representative did go over each of the three products I bought.

The Beef Hooves and The Retriever Pork Skin are from the USA.

The Chix Mix is from China. She clearly stated this.

It looks like a great product,

but I am very hesitant to feed them to my dog.

I Googled all the information about the the dog deaths linked to Chicken Jerky Treats from China.

This brand was NOT on the list, but I read enough to be concerned about where they come from.

I will be exchanging the Chix Mix for the Beef Hooves tomorrow.

Underwater Galleries AUG5602 Sea Cave, Large

Underwater Galleries AUG5602 Sea Cave, LargeI ordered the large and the medium caves for my new 30 gal freshwater aquarium. They are nice and light compared to real rock and look great in the tank.

When I first put them in they released a ton of very small bubbles for several minutes which made me freak out a little bit.

The fish love them and spend time going in and out. I even put some live plants in a few of the holes and they look great! Very happy with these caves and will probably get more in the future.

I really like how this cave has three holes in it, it's fun to watch the fish swim in one and out another. It looks very realistic and is a quality made product. It is quite large I have it in a 10 gallon and it takes up almost half the tank. I put a picture in customer pictures.

This is so low to the bottom of the tank the only way a fish could get in it would be it more rocks were used to raise it up.

In The Bag Cloth Dispenser By Ethical Dog

In The Bag Cloth Dispenser By Ethical DogWe 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!

EcoBio-Block Stone for Aquariums, Medium

EcoBio-Block Stone for Aquariums, MediumI know many people might feel this stone does nothing to aquarium.Before buying it i have done tons of research.I have searched many forums where users tested this for many months and noted the readings at different stages.I finally bought it as it was 100% money back guarantee.

To my surprise,it worked so well in my 26 gallon aquarium.Before adding the stone to my aquarium i get water tested by pet smart.They told me that i have high ammonia and nitrates.I changed water immediately and added this stone.

With in a week i find my water to be very very clean.I never felt so before.I have 3 gold fishes in my aquarium.as gold fish need 10 gallons per fish.my fishes are of average size of 4 inches.And gold fishes are really dirty.But this stone worked so well that i never saw there waste any more.water was also not smelling at all.

i get my water tested yesterday and the same petsmart told me every thing looks good.So i added one more gold fish.Moreover i changed water one more time yesterday after 6 weeks.

Why i am adding this review is because as i couldn't find any review in amazon for this stone.So i felt this review will be helpful for those who are on fence to buy it or not.

I tried every product on the market to get rid of my cloudy tank. Nothing worked. And I personally hate the hassle of water changes. When I came across this product, I figured it was worth a shot. Within a month or so, I was so amazed that I had clear water!! And it has stayed so every since :-) All water tests look good and I hardly ever do water changes anymore. I love me clear aquarium and will never go back to using anything else besides this product. Highly recommend to friends and aquarium owners. It really works!!

t really does work! I had a cloudy 35 gallon tank set up for over two weeks... after I put the Eco-Bio block (large size) into the tank, it cleared up with-in a couple of days.... that was four weeks ago, now I see a little cloudyness again... I probably did the dirty deed of feeding too much at a time1 So I will change out five gallons of water....

I honestly don't know if I was scamed with this productI have no way of knowing if it works. i will not buy another one unless I have scientific proof. I still have it in the aquarium because it might be working and it is a good hiding place for my baby Platys. It was square shaped not donut shaped as shown.

Cliffs and Caves Master Kit - Large - 6 x 7 x 3 in. - Small - 4 x 2 1/2 x 1/2

Cliffs and Caves Master Kit - Large - 6 x 7 x 3 in. - Small - 4 x 2 1/2 x 1/2First, this kit is very tiny. Your beloved animal will not fit in that cave unless it is a dwaft puffer.

Second, the edges are sharp. It is made with very cheap plastic and they did not cut sharp edges at all, well it's just designed this cheap way.

Third, the color of this replica is ridiculous. Do not believe the picture, they professionally painted that model or it's real rock and the kit you will get is actually 1 color, Cheap nasty green.

Fourth, the picture makes you believe that it is similar to a normal aquarium rock, No. You get exactly what's on the picture from the front view. Then it is cut in half so you attach the entire kit to the wall. So I don't know what they meant by "Cave kit" it 1" or less deep inside.

Fifth, the attachable cliff pieces are a joke. They do not even fit in, they'd 100% fall off with your hamster's or fish's nose breeze.

To sum it up, this was the worst $20 spent in my entire online purchase. Also the kit says made in USA, manufactured in Thailand(?), 1999. Get it?

I love these! I have a 40 gallon black backed hex and these are great. My eel like loaches swim in and out of them, my frog and shrimp sit on the cliffs and recently the swordtails are using them a lot. Am ordering another set, the Amazon price is better than I paid last time.

Lee`s Aquarium Betta Hex Dual

Lee`s Aquarium Betta Hex DualJust because a Betta can survive in small conditions because in their natural environment during the drought season doesn't mean that we should keep them in those conditions. Many Bettas don't survive these rough conditions that nature provides in their home territory. If you buy small cups and throw a fish in themyou are just condemning them to solitary confinement in a prison cell. My Betta is in a 10 gallon tank and you wouldn't believe the fun he has exercising and playing in all that space. If you careyou would never subject this beautiful creature to cups of water if you saw them in gallons of HEATED (they are tropical fish) water!!!!!! Study this fish and you will understand that we take for granted their survival mechanisms and exploit them for our own foolish pleasure.

Too small. Bettas need at least a gallon size tank.

I would never force a betta to live in that small of a tank, let alone two.

Buy Lee`s Aquarium Betta Hex Dual Now

note before my review: Yea ok, so everyone QQing over this needs to just think about it from a breeders standpoint...I jar my bettas in quart mason jars. The males anyways. I do not see how this is any different. The ONLY downside and I mean ONLY, is that the divider is not a solid color, preventing the males from seeing each other. Is this meant for keeping a betta forever and ever as a HOME? No...But as a breeding standpoint, it is fine. If you are stupid enough to think a breeder would have a gallon-per-male, you are wrong. It is more cost and space efficient for mason jars, beanie baby boxes, or these small acrylic breeders.

So.........if you dont like it because it is "cruel", dont write a review. Reviews are only helpful if you point out flaws in construction, pricing, etc. Your opinion means jack from a consumer standpoint.

I rate this product a 4, and that is because the divider is NOT a solid color. Bi-weekly water changes are suggested and this setup is NOT suggested for long-term use.

Penn Plax Enchanted Castle Aquarium Ornament

Penn Plax Enchanted Castle Aquarium OrnamentI got this castle for my one gallon Betta fish tank, I chose the smallest size and when I put it in the water it took up a lot of room and freaked out my fish. But it will defiantly look good in a bigger tank and is well made.

So ok I've gone off the deep end. But this is one in a whole series of aquarium decorations I've purchased, and this one , I find, is the bestthe most sturdily constructed, artfully decorated and architecturally challenging and comforting to the betta. It fits into the awkward hole in the fluval tank. Recommend highly for 6 gallon tanks and bored fish. I will be searching the listings for more decorations of this quality for the other betta's tank.

Quick Disconnect Double Valve for Magnum 350 Canister Filter

Quick Disconnect Double Valve for Magnum 350 Canister FilterI got this part to use with my Vortex diatom filter to facilitate recharging it. Adding this quick-connect shut-off valve makes that chore a bit easier, but no matter how you try to clean out used diatom residue and add fresh material, its no picnic. Quality of the valves is good and the only thing that is downside is that separating the quick-connect valves can be a little difficult. Suggest lubricating them with vaseline to make this easier.

This valve assembly is a great concept, but will leak over time (6-8 months) if care and attention is not given to the o-rings. I've found that libricating/conditioning the rings with silicone lubricant will extend their life to over a year. Overall, a good product.

Kordon/Oasis (Novalek) AKD39446 Ich Attack for Aquarium, 16-Ounce

Kordon/Oasis AKD39446 Ich Attack for Aquarium, 16-OunceIch Attack works, but it works slowly. If you don't catch the ich early on and it gets a good hold on the fish, you need a stronger, chemical treatment for your fish, not an herbal one. Being herbal, Ich Attack doesn't have many of the disadvantages of the harsher chemical treatments. I am currently using this on a 12 gallon freshwater tank populated with 7 black neon tetras, 5 pygmy corys, and 3 dwarf gouramis. I lost 6 of the tetras, but I consider that more my fault than the failure of the Ich Attack I didn't catch the ich until it was too far along on the tetras. I'm not even sure if a chemical treatment would have saved the tetras as badly as they were infected. It took a week of dosing the tank with Ich Attack before I saw the last of the ich on the remaining fish, but the bottle warns that it may take as long as 5 weeks if the ich is particularly resistant. As recommended on the bottle, I am continuing the treatment for 5 days after all ich is gone. In summary, it works and I like it, but I have learned to inspect my fish carefully each day to catch any infections early.

Am on my 3 rd bottle in a 75g tank....I bought this because of my red cherry shrimp and the oto cats....no harmful effects at all...lose a doz neons and flame tetras right off but after dbbl doseing every thing looks good ..Am putting 3rd bottle in to be on safe side...no harm to heavily planted tank...it just destroyed the ich...good stuff..patience needed

I have a 125 gallon saltwater reef tank and used this product actually took 2 bottles to complete treatment and ICH never went away. I had heard a lot of great reviews on this product so I still believe in it but I can't rate 5 stars as it was not affective in ridding the ICH in my tank. I will say that on a positive side it did not affect my corals at all.

I used this herbal medication to treat marine ich in my reef tank about a month ago. My clownfish stopped "flashing" against rocks. I assumed it worked but brain coral (Trachyphyllia geoffroyi) died and slowly turned to white. I lost $44.99 (the price of the brain coral).

Recently I have a marine ich crisis, maybe after the introduction of tomini tang. I used the herbal medication with higher dose allowed by the instructions (6 teaspoonful, instead of 4, for 40 gallon tank) for about a week. Fairy wrasse was full of white ich, also scissortail goby. Now other tank mates were effected.

I decided to stop this herbal treatment after:

(1) I did not see any improvement with the fish

(2) Plate coral (Cycloseris hexagonalis) stopped responding with its favorite food

(3) Gorgonian coral (Eunicea sp) stopped extending its tentacles.

However, birdnest coral, acropora, maxima clam, Duncan coral (Duncanopsammia axifuga) were okay.

I want to try copper treatment on separate tank, or hypo salinity treatment. I think herbal treatment cannot stop marine ich crisis.

Every tank is different. You can try this product and see the result.

8 PC Extra Large River Rock Cave. Minimum height of 6" Aquarium Aquascape DIY Kit, Aquarium Safe, A

8 PC Extra Large River Rock Cave. Minimum height of 6' Aquarium Aquascape DIY Kit, Aquarium Safe, All Natural Stone, Organic Terrarium, Iwagumi Aquarium, cichlid cave, pleco cave.These people really know their stones! Beautiful black slate pieces in multiple sizes small to big. Will be using these pieces not as a cave but in a natural dish garden design. Plan to use them to design small "retainer walls" around water features. Small terrarium-size plants will be used all around to give the viewer the feeling they are in a forest, looking at a waterfall over rocks. Can't wait to use them in my dish garden to be entered in an upcoming national convention!

First, the item was late, quite late, so I was offered free shipping, which was nice, then when I recieved stones that were NOT consistant with the items pictured in any way, they had been ground down to literaly HOCKEY PUCKS, and some were so thin they were like waffers, none of which could be used in my tank for the structure I was building, when I called in to remedy the situation, the owner was very upset, seemed to want to help, she had the employee responsible call me personally and apologize, he kept telling me "I'm probably going to lose my job over this", not a very comfortable situation for a customer to be in. I was offered a full refund which I accepted, and left neutral feedback at first... but NOW I'm getting phone calls and emails prodding me to change my feedback to positive, after going through the hell of tracking down someone in this company to actually SPEAK to, or even answer an email, NO, I ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT!! if you ask me, you are lucky to get good service out of this compay, and change your email after your order, because they will more than likely be hounding you just like they did me for that ever so important feedback, its harrassing, you have been warned.

Impeller Shaft Assembly without Magnet for Magnum 350 Canister Filter

Impeller Shaft Assembly without Magnet for Magnum 350 Canister FilterImpeller works wonderfully. I bought a new one because mine busted (obviously) and I figured it would work but I had no idea that the impeller was making my filter so noisy in the first place. Now it's whisper quiet, so I say if you can hear anything besides the water entering the canister and the bubbles from the air pump, you probably need a new impeller.

Very difficult to snap magnet onto impeller shaft as directed in instructions. I was actually unable to snap the two pieces in place. Otherwise great product but hard to put together properly.
