API PH Test and Ajuster Combo Test Kit

Bought this because local retailer stopped suppying them....very user friendly!!! Bought this because local retailer stopped suppying them....very user friendly!!!

If you were going to test the water in a fish tank, this is probably a good product. However, I purchased this through a site dedicated to selling products for canning [preserving] food. Per the site, I required an acid content of a pH of 4.6 or below, to safely preserve food by canning. With that said, this kit tests from a range of 6 to 7.6; basically pointless for testing food products for a higher acid content.

PondCare Spring and Autumn Pellet Fish Food, 9 Ounce

The goldfish in our pond like this food, although in comparison they go CRAZY for the summer version -PondCare 181B Summer Staple Koi Fish Food Premium Pellet, 41-Ounce -which I give them when the water's warmer. Read tje instructions on the bag to see when to feed each pellet type. Previous years we used a regular goldfish flake food, and always had algae problems (it never occurred to me there might be a different food for pond fish versus aquarium fish). I'm not sure if this food is what's helped so much this year, but we now have a crystal clear pond and apparently super happy fish. I know they're happy, because this year I could actually see them swimming!

Glofish Plastic Plants Large Starfire Red, Ambulia

Shipped quickly, high enough quality, looks great under regular lighting...but unfortunately does not glow under the glofish aquarium's lighting as expected. All of the blue and green plants we purchased showed up, but this one is better used under fluorescent lighting.

Took a while to get to my house. and i figured it would be flimsy like any other plastic plant and it kinda glows. its ok.

Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 12-Inch

Fits perfectly on my 12" Marineland 2.5 gal. Very light-weight but a sturdy feel to it. Attaching the two legs was easy. You can slide them in or outwards to accommodate the tank rims.

There's a separate switch for the LED and moonlight on the sides. I wasn't interested in the moon lights but it looks very nice. LEDs are super bright, plants are growing like crazy!

I bought two of these to replace my old florescent bulb on my 29 gallon tank. They work well, light it more than adequately and the couple live plants I have seem to be flourishing. I bought them specifically to do more live planting, and hopefully they will do the job.

I purchased 3 of these for my aquacubes (Fresh water plants). They work well, I even grew Dwarf Baby Tears and Dwarf Hairgrass. Just be aware that these are NOT High intensity light, so it is not ideal for non-greens (Ludwigias and Rotalas will be green, not pink, not red)

Had this light for a few months and it's doing a great job over the refugium section of my sump.

I have it running opposite of the top lights to balance out the daily pH swing.

Coraline is growing great and the price was right.

I really like these lights. They are very bright and the blue lights are great as well. The switches are easy to press, one side has the blue lights and the other has the clear lights. Easy enough to switch for my six year old and he enjoys turning them off for the night. Recommended.

I was so excited when I first received this. It looks great in my Fluval Ebi tank. The shrimp love to climb on it and the Beta even likes to rest on the top in the cubby-like hole.

The color is nice and natural and makes for a very attractive structure in a planted tanks. It acually looks even better when a bit of algae starts to grow on it. But that's where the trouble started.

I have a couple Nirate snails that love to eat algae. With in a couple days they ate was on the 'Mangrove Root' and the paint that was under the algae came up with it. So now there are sections that are white/gray instead of brown/red.

Luckly I don't think it hurt the snails (they are still alive) but I will be removing this from the tank and using a real piece of driftwood or a nano tree so I don't have to worry about the problem again. It's really too bad because it does look nice. :( oh well, live and learn.

**update** 12/13/2011

I'm changing my rating to 1 star.

So I took this thing out of my tank and really just about fell on the floor. IT SMELLED SO BAD! because it is hollow, fungus was able to grow inside of it. Seriously... it was so terrible that we had to promptly put it in a garbage bag and store it outside.

Total waste of money. :(

The decoration is well made and looks good in the tank. I looked at the pictures and did not pay a lot of attention to the measurements. It is hard to figure just how large the decorations are. The small size is 4.8 x 7.8 x 4, the medium is 12.7 x 6.8 x 5.1 and the large is 14.6 x 8.4 x 5.5. The medium measures smaller than the small size in one of the measurements and just a little over an inch bigger in another. I bought the small one and it does not have large enough holes for most of the fish to swim though. I do not know if I need a medium or a large. It would helpful if the seller would set them side by side so that you could see the differences better. I believe the large size is pictured on the web, which will allow more than just the smallest fish to swim though. I will look around town and see if I can find this decoration so that I will not end up buying all three sizes. I am giving this 3 stars not because of the quality of the decoration but because of the difficulty figuring out just what size to get for your tank.

Update: I took the chance and bought the large size. I'm positive that it is the one used in the picture but without the plants. It is a little bigger than I wanted but it will work. I did not buy the medium because it didn't measure that much bigger than the small size. If you have a tank that is 20 gal or more you might want to go with the large size if you want your larger fish to be able to use the openings. I have mostly tetras and barbs which are not "big" fish but they don't like to swim through tight areas.

The measurements would be less confusing if they read like the following

Small 4.8 x 7.8 x 4

Medium 6.8 x 12.7 x 5.1

Large 8.4 x 14.6 x 5.5

The first number is the height of the rock on the tallest side

The second number is the length of the decoration

The third number is the height of the rock on the smallest side

The smallest rock and the arch are just about the same size in height.

After a week in the tank, the fish love it. I never had a problem

with the fish decoration, it was the information provided about the product.

If you have a fish with sensitive fins like a betta, you can forget this. The overall texture is extremely rough and sharp.. rough and sharp enough to actaully cut my skin none the less snag some nylons. Also it has 3 places on the ornament where it's obviously they've stuck 2 pieces together.. very crudely with gaps and no texture mesh up. The bottom is hollow.. not sure about that. Too bad. Looks good online. Poorly made and ROUGH.

I'm glad to find this on Amazon so I can share how much my fish enjoy this ornament. They either roost on the very top, or sleep in one of the holes. One of them spends about 10 minutes in each hole before swimming up to perch on his Betta Hammock for a while. I will always use this ornament in my tanks. It doesn't look especially nice in this photo but it's pretty neat. More importantly... they love it!

I have a crayfish that has found his way inside of this thing (it's hollow) and made it a home, he manages to move from branch to branch and poke his head out of holes he's made for himself. Also my pleco uses the bottom branches as his home during the day. It's very cool looking and perfect for fish to play in.

Aquarium Automatic Fish Food Tank Feeder Timer Home BLK

Very cheaply made and its sure not to last long but it works for now and gets the job done!

I love this feeder! And as a PETCO fish expert I have been highly recommending it to my many many aquatic customers. I have been using it (personally) for 5 months already and have not had to change the batteries at all. It gets the job done and is very durable. I do not have to worry about feeding my freshwater fish every day, because this feeder does it for me. Also another advantage to using an automatic feeder it that fish love to be on daily schedules, and when they are fed at the exact time, every single day, they love it even more. I have noticed that when it is nearing the time for them to be fed, my fish start swimming up at the top of the tank anticipating for their food to drop. Another great advantage to using this type of feeder is that you can choose the portion size of food you would like to be dropped into the tank for every feeding. Also you can choose whether you would like your fish to be fed once a day or up to 4 times a day. And if you have baby fish in your tank this will help you out a great deal. When I had baby platies in my breeders net, it was very hard for me to make sure they were fed 4 times a day. Sometimes I wasn't even home for a couple of the feedings, but with this automatic feeder my worries went away.

I highly recommend this product for all levels of aquarist. I think you should definitely buy this product!!

Easy Life USPR 0500 ProFito Plant Fertilizer

I am very pleased with this product. It provides everything my plants need to look amazing.The plants are doing very well with the reds and pinks intensifying daily.

This is a terrific freshwater aquatic plant fertilizer. I found it on a small niche website and was happy to be able to order it via Amazon.

This is a comparable product to Seachem Flourish. I've used both. I lean a little bit toward favoring this over the Flourish, but I've never done a test between the two fertilizers.

One thing I do know: the anacharis I grow has TAKEN OFF since I started using this. I also grow Amazon sword plants, which are doing very well (they are sending up flower spikes and actually blooming), but they still need additional potassium and quite a lot of it, to keep from getting holes in the leaves. I am also growing sagittaria subdulata, which is doing very well, but not growing like a weed, rotala indica, which is growing like a weed, and some tall sagittaria which are also growing like weeds.

I also add Flourish excel, Flourish iron and Flourish potassium in addition to this but the plants were not "flourishing", pun intended, until I started using this.

I wish I had taken a photo of the difference this made in the anacharis. A lot of it was turning brown, but as soon as I started using this, BANG! green florets that are now 8 inches long or more. I will be selling the extras soon.

Here's what the bottle says: "Easy-Life Pro-Fito is a highly concentrated, comprehensive plant fertilizer for freshwater aquariums. It contains iron, potassium, manganese and many other vital elements... does not contain nitrates or phosphates."

This is a little more expensive than the Flourish in this size bottle. But if you go up to the 1000 ml bottle, this is only $18.54 and the Flourish is... not available on Amazon in the 1000ml size.

I have a bottle of Flourish so I will try to compare the two products' ingredients:

Total Nitrogen: (Flourish, .07%) (Pro-Fito .03%)

Available Phosphate: (Flourish, .01%) (Pro-Fito .00%)

Soluble Potash: (Flourish, .37%) (Pro-Fito .58%)

Iron: (Flourish, .32%) (Pro-Fito .24%)

Magnesium: (Flourish, .11%) (Pro-Fito .09%)

Boron: (Flourish, .009%) (Pro-Fito .008%)

Copper: (Flourish, .0001%) (Pro-Fito .0002%)

Maganese: (Flourish, .0118%) (Pro-Fito .04%)

AquaTop 48" SkyLED Aquarium LED Light - 462 LEDs

The LED is the future, it saves energy and output more light than comparable traditional light. The LEDs make my fish tank look stellar! The color of my fish look great. I can see colors I did not see before. The LEDs shine all the way to the bottom of my tank and give the shimmer effect of natural daylight! At night I like to shut off the White LEDs and use the Blue and Red LEDs to give my tank a Moon-Lit effect. Keep in mind this light is for aquarium use, it can grow some plants but not coral.

This light is great! The colors it produces is amazing with its shimmer effects. The colors of my salt water fish pop from this light. I would definitely recommend this item.

Zilla Fresh Air Screen Cover

I purchased this to go over the top of my Zilla 36x18 "Critter Cage" when the original lid screen was damaged by my cat with an overzealous sense of curiosity. He likes to lay atop and soak up the heat that was meant for my 2 Mali Uromastyx reptiles in the terrarium below. Attempts at repairing the original tank lid proved to be a waste of time as the screen would only collapse again when the cat decided it was time for another sunbathing session. A lid this size was extremely hard to find, that is until I went to Amazon.com. When I did find it, I was still a bit nervous it would not fit my "Critter Cage" becasue of it's unique "slide-front" lid design. I'm happy to report that not only does it fit like a glove, but it also holds the weight of my buff kitty in search of a tan! Problem solved!

I just received my lid in the mail today (a day earlier than expected, wow!) and it fits perfect! At first I freaked out since it did not go on all the way on one corner, but with a slight bit of force, it popped on perfectly and fits pretty snug. It's great and I really hope it lasts for quite a time. The price is amazing as well, especially since I received free S&H! Thank you for having this item, Amazon!

This is supposed to be reef safe and invertebrate safe. It did not kill our invertebrates or corals, however after adding to the tank it caused our green star polyp and zoanthids to close up for over a week. Would not use it again because of that.

"My guinea pig just got his neck snapped and died because he stuck his head in the perfectly guinea pig head shaped window of his Timber Tent. I've contacted the company, because they shouldn't manufacture a pet toy that can so easily kill your pet.

Avoid buying Timber Tents for your hamster or gerbil or guinea pig or whatever. The hamster-sized tents have hamster head sized holes as well. Buy houses with only arches instead of windows."

My 3 chinchillas really like this hide a way. They have already made the entrance and "window" bigger from chewing. It has held up well so far. They enjoy sitting on the top and inside the Timber Tent, and the only reason I rated it 4 stars instead of 5 is I think they would enjoy a bigger size more. One of them fits inside just fine, but they tend to snuggle together and its not quite big enough for two, let alone three =)

Aquatic Life Light T5 HO 2-Lamp Link Fresh Aquarium Light, 48-Inch

After having this for a few weeks and trying to grow some plants I found out the bulbs on this are just not quite up to snuff . I dumped the bulbs in favor of 2x 6700k bulbs and saw a noticable improvment in plant growth . Plus the Red "rosetta" buld just gives off a not so bight red hue , so I suggest at least dumping the rosetta bulb and getting a 54 watt coralife 6700k available here on amazon , better yet 2x 6700k

I recieved this and was a little leery seeing it has no reviews yet, and I been burned on buying a cheeper light that did not last even a week, but I took a chance and it paid off . The light is very bright with out being over powering . I am running a 55 gallon setup and it lights the bottom very well . It comes with 2 bulbs a 6000 k and a red plant bulb . Not entirly sold on the red bulb but its not bad . The housing is all aluminum with the ends being hard plastic . The switch is well made and has a good solid feel to it . The protective lens cover is plexiglass . I like how well made it is , it is fairly easy to change the bulbs , just take out 2 screws on the non switch end, slide out the plexiglass , and you have easy access to the bulbs . Sockets are of high quality , and easy to work with .

I realy like the reflectors high polished mirror like reflectors do a outstanding job of directing the light down. All in all the light is very heavy unlike a few of the other fixtures I had that were light . This makes me suspect that I have better quality here as a good quality ballest it not light in weight .

The light takes standard 48" HO bulbs so my next buld change I will probaly go with some 6700k bulbs.

Their are a few cons to this setup . I think the light would do better if they would have installed a few fans or at least some vents on top of the unit as it gets quite warm . not scalding hot just a little uncomfortable to handle if its been on for a while . Another con is you can't use the light without the legs , the bottom gets pretty hot and its not recomended by the manufacturer so your stuck with using the legs . Not a big deal for me but might be for some . also for those with a enclosed canopy its not recomeded to use this light . Also their are no paper instructions , just a cd instructions so if you dont have a computer handy, your out of luck.

Another con is their is only one switch so you must run all the bulbs or none , no way to use only one or the other . not a big deal for me but could be for some and if your using a standard AQUARIUM GLASS CANOPIE it will interfearwith that as you will not be able to open the fron glass , I already had 2 VERSA TOP 24"-TWIN TUBE-BLACK http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002AS8G6/ref=oh_o04_s00_i00_details so no problem for me .

To sum it it if your looking for a good quality light for your set up I don't think you will go wrong at this price point , my plants are responding to the light and I have new growth . As to the reliability of the unit that remains to be seen , I have had it 2 weeks now but am not worried. I do not regret my purchace . I considered marineland LEDs but they are too expensive and not recomended for planted tanks per marineland , even the 48 doublebright if you will look on their website in the F&Q section .

I bought one of these from my local fish store for my 75 gallon planted aquarium. I also have a 36inch on my 46 gallon tank. I like the lights. They don't get too hot for a unit without a fan. They don't buzz or flicker, and the reflectors are of good quality. I bought two more from amazon to add to my 75 gallon for a total of three lights. They mount together very easily. The instructions say not to use them under a canopy, but I do anyway, it has an open back and enough space between its top and the light to allow air flow. I did end up taking the lid off the canopy because my tank was running a few degrees warmer than usual because of it. I would highly recommend using these lights for your planted tank. With the right bulbs your plants will thrive and grow. The lights are tough, I dropped one, it stopped working, but was able to fix it by pushing the light holder mounts back in place and tightening the screw back. I was worried for bit, but the bulbs didn't break, and the light took no damage.
