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.Read Best Reviews of Eshopps AEO19250 Magnetic Pet Bowl and Probe Holder Here

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.

Glo T5 HO Electronic Ballast for T5 HO Fluorescent Bulbs, Fits 2 x 54 Watt T5 HO Bulbs
I retrofitted an old coralife fixture I had and the bulbs just barely fit. The two 56 watt T5 bulbs lit the tank beautifully, though, while it worked.
I will try to get a replacement and hopefully it will work better...I have a 90gal saltwater reef tank loaded with a mix of soft and hard corals.
This was the best deal I could find on T5 HO ballast, so I ordered 3 sets.
Its been 6 months now with them running for 8-12hrs a day with no problems.
Very easy to install
Good quality
Fast shipping
Low price
Buy Glo T5 HO Electronic Ballast for T5 HO Fluorescent Bulbs, Fits 2 x 54 Watt T5 HO Bulbs Now
very good product, installation was very easy, I have been using for about a year I have had zero zero problems good products i recommend this seller and productI purchased this about a year ago to make a home made aquarium light for my 75 gallon planted tank. The first unit I received emitted a loud 60 Hz buzzing noise from day one but did light up the lamp. I contacted Hagen who assured me that was not normal, and so I had the item replaced via Amazon as a defective unit. The replacement process was painless and the second unit did not share the same issue. The unit is quiet and doesn't produce a ton of heat. I eventually wanted to route my cords off one end of my aquarium rather than both and so I cut and extended two of the leads. I don't advise trying this if you are not comfortable doing so, or have to ask how but it worked for me. While I don't have a PAR meter it didn't cause any perceivable loss in light, nor did it result in any flickering or noise. The power button requires some effort to flip as it is under a plastic bulb, but as I use a light timer this isn't really an issue for me. Here is a video of the planted tank these lights power: Can't rate item, it is not the correct item for the Lite I have. The Ballast is to large to fit in my lite even though the manufacturer/company shows this product as the product that fit my Light ficture. It was returned.Tuesday, June 17, 2014

TOM Stellar Air Pump S-20 - 20gal to 30gal tank
All air pumps make noise, but the volume from this seems plenty reasonable. I hid mine in a wicker basket under my tank and that seems to almost completely mask any noise. This pump did not come with any other accessories like a t fitting to split the air into multiple hoses, or a check valve to make sure water doesn't back flow into the pump. I already had these so it wasn't an issue for me.
Many people don't know but the rubber diaphragms eventually always wear out in any air pump. So, we will see how long these last, they do list the part number on the packaging for replacing them when they wear out. But, I suspect with shipping that they will cost as much as a new pump since the pump is so inexpensive and eligible for prime shipping.
My goal is to get at least a year of use out of this pump before the diaphragms need replacing. In my mind that's a reasonable amount of time for a pump in this price range. If it dies before a year is out I'll come back and update this post, if there are no updates then it means my pump lasted at least a year!For an inexpensive air pump this one does a good job. It is fairly quiet, though I have had better. Puts out plenty of air through my 2" bubble disk.

I was looking for a replacment to my Tetra Whisper (Tetra 77851 Whisper Air Pump, 10-Gallon) reading a review that this product (TOM Stellar Air Pump S-20 20gal) is the most quiet among the many the reviewer has experienced. By far, this pump vibrated on top of my tank despite putting a damper under its feet. The sound is just too annoying. I then tried a Rena (Rena 702A Model 50 Air Pump by Mars but they're both so noisy I went back to ordering the Tetra Whisper. For the time and effort to return these 2 items, it was better for me to throw them out to garbage.Read Best Reviews of TOM Stellar Air Pump S-20 - 20gal to 30gal tank Here

Exotic Environments Log Cavern with Plants Aquarium Ornament
I did find one or two sharp edges inside the log that might cause an abrasion, but they are easily smoothed. Now, you don't have to worry about trying to anchor down artificial plants or trying to grow live plants that your fish keep uprooting.In general, I am very pleased with this product. A few of the plants look a little less realistic than I would've liked, but not enough to detract from the rating, mainly because if you're buying this thing, you're accepting the fact that you're gonna have fake plants.
The log itself is painted with a very high attention to detail and looks great. The rock/sand base also looks great. The inside of the log isn't quite as nice, but it'll be dark anyway in a lighted tank and so you'll probably barely see it.
I suppose cleaning the gravel under the log could be an issue (it has an open bottom, which I like); not really a problem if you have cleaner shrimp.
The main reason why this decoration gets 5 stars despite a few flaws is that it's an excellent hiding place for fish and other aquarium inhabitants (such as shrimp). The 2 plants strategically placed at each opening of the log make sure big fish can't get in, but more importantly they make your smaller inhabitants feel secure (even if there aren't actually any big fish to be afraid of, as in my tank). Whether or not your fish or shrimp actually "need" a hiding spot, having one as good as this will make them significantly less stressed and more happy.
Considering the shipping, it's a reasonable price as well.
NOTE: There could be a few strands/strings of glue hanging off of it when you buy it new, make sure you pull these off before putting it in your tank.

I really liked this when I opened the package. It's a really nice foreground decoration. My sucker fish really likes taking naps in it during the day. It's constructed of high quality materials and looks better when put in the tank.Read Best Reviews of Exotic Environments Log Cavern with Plants Aquarium Ornament Here
This decoration came quickly and looked like the picture above. The only problem would be the plants are stiff, especially the end ones, but they make it a nice "cave" like feel I guess, my cherry barbs like exploring it so far!Want Exotic Environments Log Cavern with Plants Aquarium Ornament Discount?
I have this and several other pieces that are realistic like this. My cichlids just love this piece and after fighting over it has settled to one of the stronger fish in the tank. It is reasonably realistic looking and the plants look good on it too. It really adds a nice cave option for your fish that like caves.Friday, February 28, 2014

LEDwholesalers High Power WHITE + BLUE LED Aquarium Reef corals grow light. 2512W+B
Taking into consideration the cost of a traditional halide fixture and bulb are about the same as these fixtures, the savings in electricity and maintinance on the fixtures themselves, LED is far and away a superior light to metal halide in almost every way.
I went from 1.6 killowats per hour 10 hours a day to 600 watts 10 hours a day. While that is less than half the watts, that is not where the real savings is. The real savings is in the heat, or rather how cool these lights run.
If you ever have had halides you know how hot they are.Between my chiller the A/C and running fewer watts my power bill has gone down $450.00 per month. I still need my chiller but is only runs 15 minutes an hour instead of 45 minutes an hour and keeps my tank at 77. I live in south FLA its hot all the time.
Additionally I was spending $500-600 a year keeping the system running,not including electriciy, bulbs and ballasts anually.
I have heard of people having problems with these lights and that led wholesalers is not really helpful however I have never had a failure with these. I bought mine on ebay from the same vendor for $315 including shipping.Nice Light not as intense as the seller claims, about equal to 250 watt metal halide until you get about 8 inches below the water surface, no where near the output of a 400 watt metal halide.

I've been using two of these on my 150 gallon reef setup. They throw quite a bit of light and my corals are maintaining pretty good. 1 more light would probably be needed for good growth. The one thing I wish these had were the reflectors that gave the water a shimmering effect like the metal halides that i replaced.I recently bought the smaller version of this light. There is no difference in this light and the one I bought other then the sizeMy Review is below:
This light is Dangerous & Poorly Made.
I was so excited to get 2 of these lights for my saltwater reef tank. I spent the extra money to have them overnighted.
They came today. I opened the first box and I plugged it, after a moment the fans came on and the LEDs came on. I unplugged it and set it aside
You can imagine my disappointment when I plugged in the second one and it did not work. There is no on off switch so the way you turn it on and off is you plug or unplug it.
When it did not come on after a minute, I unplugged it and plugged it back in. This time when I plugged it back in I got a shock!
When both units were unplugged I looked at them closely. Looking through the vents I noticed wires hanging down. These lights come with 3 prong plug (the third is the ground), but with close inspection you can clearly see inside the ground wire is sniped and attached to nothing.
After comparing the 2 units you can see they are put together with entirely different internal parts. The internal parts of these lights look they were cobbled together from spare parts you would find in your junk drawer.
The defective unit literally has a wall plug glued to the inside top of the unit, with a wires soldered to each prong and electrical tape wrapped around the prongs. INSIDE THE UNIT!?!?
There should be negative stars for product like this.
Avoid this unit i at all costs!
I would suggest that anyone who has one of these units, unplug it and stop using it.

I used this light for my 45 gallon bowfront reef tank for 5 months, replacing a 175w metal halide. My corals grew very well with this light and everyone in the tank seemed happy. The color is too stark for my taste compared with either metal halide (10k) or florescent lights, both of which give a more rich tone and coloration to my eye. Also this unit has very loud fans, louder than my hang-on-back skimmer. Electricity savings and less heat are positives.Pro:
Energy efficient.
Less heating (save on chilling).
Good coral growth.
Inexpensive compared to competitors.
Con:
Color is too narrow/stark for my taste, washes out corals and fish.
Noisy fans.
Not made to be easily mounted other than by the hanging cables.
Lose shimmer effect relative to MH lights.
Bottom line: When I upgraded my tank to a 75g with overflow, I was thinking of buying a second one of these. I directly compared this LED light to the MH and florescent lights that came with the tank, and I just couldn't bring myself to use this LED fixture anymore. I'm selling it.

Been using this for a few years....when i did not use it, fish were very stressed out, huffing and puffing. I use two blue cap fulls, [the top of bottle is the cap], for 110 gallon tank. I have worked in fresh and salt water fish stores. Great product!This product makes a white film on the surface of the water. I kept everything constant when I stopped using this, and immediately, the film went away. Also, I have a cover on top of my tank, so it isn't from the air.Tuesday, October 29, 2013
