API Algae Destroyer Advanced, 16-Ounce

API Algae Destroyer Advanced, 16-OunceI use it in my aquariums, and a fountain in my green house. Works well in both!

I have a problem with the water quality here; it's well water that has problems with high phosphate levels. I attribute that to living in a (largely former) agricultural area...phosphate-based fertilizers. The amount of algae varies directly with the phosphate concentration with little-to-no changes in any other ion concentration.

Anyway, this is the only non-copper containing stuff that works well and consistently. With the other stuff that I bought, I might as well have had the fish swimming in pure algaecide.

In my experience, this manufacturer sells a pretty good product line and I don't know why I didn't start with them.

I do have a phosphate sponge in one of the filters and I have live plants, snails and a fair number of monster Discus. Everybody is doing fine after months of treatment.

Yes, months. It takes a lot to keep the algae at bay and I try to watch how much I feed the crew.

This product, applied according to instructions (25 drops/ten gallons or 40 liters of water, killed all of my blue eye forktail rainbow fish, Pseudomugil furcatus, within 18 hours, first the females and then the males. None of my other fish have been affected. However, I have not lost any plants to the product. The product is fairly effective against algae, but after the initial kill, it is necessary to continue treating the water weekly.

This product simply does not work. I used it for three weeks following the instructions and everything remained the same. I have a 20 gallon tropical aquarium and I instead replaced the substrate after giving up with multiple products. I'm not sure if this works with other forms of algae (mine was green)but i'd be hesitant.

We accidentally did too much of a water change and created an in-balance in our tank due to trying to plan ahead for a vacation. It took awhile to eliminate the green algae and cloudy water bloom but this worked so well we started to use it as a regular with our other tanks. Aerated well and we have had no plant or freshwater fish loss. Sparkling clean tanks. Will recommend and continue to use.

Fish Tapes - 30 count - Removal of tapeworm in Fish

Fish Tapes - 30 count - Removal of tapeworm in FishWhy spend big bucks on Droncit for dogs at $7.19 PER TABLET when you can use Fish Tapes which is the same exact product as Droncit and only $1.15 PER TABLET??

If you need directions on dosage, just google it.

These capsules, containing 34 mg prazaquantal, are an affordable way to worm my cats! Adult cat dose is 23 mg prazaquantal, the generic ingredient in droncit. I split them open, dissolve two capsules in 3 cc of liquid and give eachof three cats one cc of suspension, which gives them about 23 mg per cat. It does not taste good, so I follow it with a syringe of water or tuna juice to wash the bad taste away.

My vet wanted 6.50 a tablet for the same thing. I have 16 dogs and all had fleas recently and the tapeworms were showing up. I just wormed them all on Saturday morning and on Sunday and Monday when I checked, there was not a single egg segment in anyone's poop. I am thrilled! I will reworm them in 3 weeks to be sure we have gotten them all. I ended up giving 40 tablets for a cost of around $46.00 instead of $195.00....I am thrilled!

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBB9 Nano Banquet Block Mini

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBB9 Nano Banquet Block MiniIt is very small (perfect for the typical nano shrimp tank. Mine happens to be the fluval 5.5 spec) and does provide the large number of shrimp associated with small shrimp tanks a nice food variety among their shrimp pellets and frozen varieties of food.

I will throw in a block as often as once a week, or every other week (dependent on my weekly to bi-weekly water changes). It is important to only feed these blocks right before a water change is due or right after a water change is completed only because once again, with any plaster fed food, when left in the water column, it can get messy and dirty the tank in a relatively short amount of time. My cherry shrimp, orange bee shrimp, and red fire shrimp do enjoy it however and I will continue to offer it to them as a food variety once in a while.

Fish & Aquatic Supplies Tetra Safestart 100Ml

Fish & Aquatic Supplies Tetra Safestart 100MlI transferred my betta from a bowl to a 5 gallon tank, and needless to say, I was anxious to get him into his new spacious tank ASAP. This product allowed me to do that after just one 12 hour period with the filter running and the SafeStart added (not sure even that was necessary). My betta has been happy, active and blubble-nesting away in his new environment from day one thanks to this product!

I got this after I set up a new 2gal aquarium (under gravel filter, aerator and heater...cost more than the fish, but worth it!) and had never heard of cycling (please Google aquarium cycling or nitrogen cycle, too long to explain here). After testing I found very high nitrites >5ppm and no nitrates (very bad). I called Tetra and they told me to change 25% of the water and put in 1 teaspoon into the new water (mix with the new 25% water before putting in the tank, also add dechlorinator and can add aquarium salt not table salt). By the following week when I tested again nitrites were 0 and nitrates were 0-5ppm (desirable readings). I highly recommend this product. Note: shake extremely well and refrigerate after opening.

Hagen Marina 25-Watt Glo Showcase Bulb, Aqua

Hagen Marina 25-Watt Glo Showcase Bulb, AquaE That's all I can say about these bulbs. They make my fish look pink, and the water has a very noticeable red tint to it. Hardly any blue at all. They might be OK for a reptile tank, but certainly not goldfish. I'm sticking with the Penn Plax Aqualife!

Como 5pcs Aquarium Tank Ornamental Plastic Floating Sea Fish

Como 5pcs Aquarium Tank Ornamental Plastic Floating Sea FishPut one in the tank to see how it worked. It stayed at the surface with its dorsal fin sticking out. My Betta checked it out from every possible angle as soon as it was in the water and went back to his favorite spot laughing all the way. That was good I did not think my Betta could have taken a chunk out of it but did not think one would go down well. It says to have some current or moving water. I do and it soon went to the filter which creates a good current and just floated there. The current went just below so it stayed right there at the filter as if glued. All the other four in the bag were repeats other than my Betta took one glance and just shook his head at them. It looked nice to me (not my Betta) and if it floated about the ten gallon tank at all would have been a nice addition. Stuck in one place it has no attraction and would be just one more thing to clean. Had it sank to around mid level of the tank I think I would have been much pleased with its performance.

Zoo Med Foam Block for 501 Turtle Filter

Zoo Med Foam Block for 501 Turtle FilterThese prefilters are great. Nice surface area and durable. I use them on Aquaclear HOB filter intakes and Eheim 2215 intakes. Much better than the Fluval Edge prefilter, although I use the Edge Prefilter on my Edge due to space limitations.... The Zoo-Med is a larger diameter than the Fluval.

bought for replacements for filter used for turtle tanks. fits perfectly, last a long time. would recommend for turtle filters.

I had a small tank which I wanted an inconspicuous filter for. This filter fit the bill, being an outside the tank little canister filter. Easy and fast to set up .

I set up a couple shrimp tanks and barb breeding tanks; I bought this to cover the intake of my small canister filter to prevent fry and shrimplets from getting sucked up by the filter. It does wonders and doesn't reduce flow :)

Want Zoo Med Foam Block for 501 Turtle Filter Discount?

Fits the canister well, and traps a lot of very small particles. Instructions should note that the capped end of the black tube (which is part of the filter and does not come with the replacement foam block) fits into the bottom of the sponge and that the open end of the same tube inserts into the pump opening in the top of the unit. This will force the water through the filter instead of allowing it to go around the filter instead. So, if you're using this foam block and find the water isn't quite as clean as you'd like, check to ensure the tube is in position properly and securely.

Coral Sun Bulb for Aquariums

Zoo Med Coral Sun Actinic 420 Coral Bulb T8 17 Watts, 24-Inchif you own i fixture for these bulbs, then you know they just aren't that bright. so don't expect these to make your hard corals to grow. it's not the bulb, you just need more power, or a t5.

Exactly what i ordered and it came in great condition. It looks so good in my tank. makes everything beautiful blue.

Buy Coral Sun Bulb for Aquariums Now

I have a 120-gallon freshwater aquarium with a few large shubunkins and a mix of artificial and live plants. The aquarium was lit by a pair of 24" 8000k fluorescents in separate 30" hoods, set end-to-end over the length of the 5-foot long tank. I purchased a pair of these ZooMed Coral Sun Actinic bulbs primarily to provide some supplemental lighting for the plants. I installed them in an additional pair of 30" hoods. The addition of the blue light output from the ZooMed bulbs to the existing 8000K fluorescents, really made a difference in the overall color balance. The gravel and plants took on a more natural, less yellowish look and the colors of the fish were also enhanced. So, in addition to helping the plants, the aesthetics were much improved as well. In the evening, I shut down the 8000K bulbs and just leave the actinics on for awhile before turning everything off for the night. The ZooMed actinics provide a cool moonlight effect when used by themselves. Great product and highly recommended for my application.

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBL20 Betta Hammock

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBL20 Betta HammockI purchased this product at Petsmart the other day after reading all the comments. I know that the design should be working so I bought is for my aquarium. This product DOES work, and will stick on very tightly. The problem would be the method of setting this item up; you should hydrolyse it first in water then push it against the glass ABOVE the water, not in water, which means there will be a bubble in the middle of the suction cup. Then move it down under the water surface to the place you want. It will stick to the glass even tighter after a while and hard to be moved again.

The reason of these methods is due to the function of the suction cup. The suction cup is designed for using the atmospheric pressure to push the cup towards the glass tightly, since the atmospheric pressure will be greater than the air in the cup, so a small bubble is required in the middle. If you set this item in the water without any air in the middle, the section cup will lose its function because when you press it in the water, the internal water pressure will almost equals to external water pressure, due to the properties of liquid, which is harder to be depressurised.

I hope this will explain the reason some people thought this item wont work. Moreover, Betta fish does also rest on it :)

I bought this item almost as a joke, because seriously... a giant plastic leaf? My betta ignored it for three days and then flung himself on it. As I type, he's laying sprawled across it looking as deliriously happy as it's possible for a fish to look. Highly recommend.

Oh, and in reference to all the negative reviews stating that the leaf pops off -there must have been a redesign. My leaf stays put, and the suction cup seems to be working just fine as well (fingers crossed).

Buy Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBL20 Betta Hammock Now

so, i see many reviews of people saying that the leaf doesn't stay in the suction cup. my belief is that you're just not pushing it hard enough into the suction cup. it's not as easy as most people say it is or should be, i had to push it in very hard, but once you get the stem of the leaf into the hole of the suction cup, it appears to be just stuck in there. i doubt you would be able to take it out. i have it my 2.5 gallon tank for my betta, he loves it. he chills on it during the day when he's bored, and sleeps on it at night.

the only thing i do not like it about it, is that there is a metal wire in the leaf, and if you bend it (or maybe even if you don't) the wire sticks out. it will eventually rust, plus it could cut your fish, so i bought some aquarium sealant (non-toxic to fish, $6 at petsmart) and covered the wire with it. i waited about 3 days for it to dry, and i put it back in. so, now it's safe, and my betta loves it. (: i've also heard you can take the wire out, and it's fine like that too.

i bought this leaf at petsmart about 2 months ago, and only for about $2.30, so it's cheaper. i think it's worth it, if you have the time to fiddle with it, and if you assemble it right. i say give it a try. (:

ALSO, if you put it in your tank and your betta doesn't seem interested, try feeding them over it over the course of a few days. it helps them realize to use it, but if s/he still doesn't use it, then s/he's just not interested. it does depend on your betta's personality, but at less than $3 at petsmart, i say it's not that much of a waste if your betta doesn't use it.

When I first put the leaf in my tank my Betta puffed his gills like he saw and intruder. After a few minutes he began to explore around it. It didn't take him very long at all to figure out what it's purpose was. The day after I bought it I looked at his tank and he liked it so much that he started to form his very first bubble nest right underneath it. I highly recommend the Betta Leaf Hammock. Other reviews say that the leaf fell out of the suction cup but I think they redesigned it because there isn't any way that the leaf can fall out of the one I received. Not only does my fish love it but I also got it 5 days before the expected delivery date.

Want Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBL20 Betta Hammock Discount?

I was shopping at petsmart, and saw this leaf; I thought my Betta, El Jefe would like it. after two days of investigation, he decided to try it out, and now loves it! whenever I enter my room, 80% of the time El Jefe is watching the rest of the world from his little hammock. I havn't had any issues with the suction cup, or leaf falling off, so I think that there must have been a re-design somewhere along the way. If El Jefe could talk, he would tell you to buy this leaf, cause he likes it!

Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas and Bowls up to 5 gal

Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas and Bowls up to 5 galGreat heater, easy to hide, very reasonable priced. If you have a small tank this is the way to go. I have a 1.5 gallon tank for my betta and its keeping temp at 76-78...he's happy as can be!

I was a little afraid about getting this heater due to some of the poor reviews, but I've had it for over 2 weeks now and so far it works just fine. I know most heaters require circulation via filter to work properly, I wonder if that was some people's problem? It was a fair price, hides easily under gravel, and keeps my 1.8 gallon betta tank around 80 degrees at all time. My betta seems much happier since I got it. Would recommend!

Buy Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas and Bowls up to 5 gal Now

I have a small 1.5 gallon Betta tank which I needed a heater for but most heaters are way too powerful for such a small tank. This heater is excellent it only raises the temperature 5 to 10 degrees which is perfect for this size tank. So in the winter when my home temperature is 68 the heater will raise the temperature at a maximum 10 degress which brings the temperature to 78. You can also bury it under the gravel so it remains hidden. Would highly recommend this heater.

Read Best Reviews of Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas and Bowls up to 5 gal Here

I have a one gallon fish bowl and there arent really any heaters made for that size. So because this heater is made for heating tanks up to several gallons, the water temperature of bowl needs to be monitored at all times if using a bowl as small as mine. Otherwise the water will get too hot for your fish. I usually plug mine in in the morning for a bit and then take it out when the temp is around 80, and I plug it in a bit before I go to bed and unplug it for overnight.

Want Hydor 7.5w Slim Heater for Bettas and Bowls up to 5 gal Discount?

This works well for a 3 gallon half-moon and keep it at 78 in a 72 degree room.....I read a lot of reviews on here, but never could get this information specifically,so I am putting it here for others. Fits nicely under the gravel. Fish a bit afraid, but it does the job. I also cleared a little gravel away from the top of it so it helps radiate more heat. Heavy, thick gravel may make it function a little lighter, in my opinion, but you can assemble a safe pile of gravel on top.

Tetra Usa ATS29554 Repair Kit for 50 and 80 Air Pump

Tetra Usa ATS29554 Repair Kit for 50 and 80 Air PumpKit arrived quickly and contained all the parts needed to fully repair my air pump. As long as the electric part still works (if it vibrates) this kit contains everything needed to fully restore your pump. The only thing you will need is some nail polish or thread-lock or Elmer's glue to apply over the internal machine screws afterward to keep them from vibrating free over time. If you use nail polish as the instructions indicate, be sure to let the inside air out for a day before replacing the cover and using the pump to prevent the smell from being sent out through the air pump. If my pump ever goes again I will absolutely buy this kit again.

Fluval C4 Poly Foam Pad - 3-Pack

Fluval C4 Poly Foam Pad - 3-PackThese foam pads are great mechanical filtration in the Fluval C series. They tend to get gunked up and need rinsings, but nothing out of the ordinary. The fine mesh side doesn't hold up too well to frequent rinsings, and it can be hard to rinse these out really well (especially inbetween the fine pad and the corse pad). Though these are much better than having to buy those marineland filter cartridges. You don't really have to buy these, as you could just rip off the fine meshed side of your old one and replace with some poly batting. But I like to have some extras on hand incase I want to use them.

Was delivered quickly and works as expected. I am very satisfied with the entire Fluvial C4 filtration system. My tank is a lot cleaner since I changes systems.

Buy Fluval C4 Poly Foam Pad - 3-Pack Now

I have been using this particular brand of filter pads for a while now, about 2 years for this model of C4. My previous filters were canister style but they were too much hassle and commitment after having multiple back surgeries, I now use only H.O.B/Hang On Back type of filters, so that they are much easier to maintain regularly.

These pads are the double-sided style, consisting of a foam side and the other being a poly material. I do not use the foam only type, as I have somewhat smaller sized fish, I would consider the foam only to be better suited for much larger fish, etc.

Penn Plax PBV1 7-Day Vacation Fish Feeder

Penn Plax PBV1 7-Day Vacation Fish FeederBefore I bought these feeders I noticed the reviews were all over the place. Some people loved them while others came home to find their fish had died. So I bought them and decided to try one out before I left for vacation. I'm very glad I did because nothing happened. While it seemed to be dissolving I couldn't see any type of food being distributed. My Beta did not have a clue as to how to eat from it because he normally chases food from the top. He doesn't forage on the bottom of the tank. After 3 days I decided to take it out of the tank and use a mechanical feeder. I think if I had just dropped it in the tank and gone on vacation I too may have come home to a dead fish. They seem worthless to me.

I bought these at a local aquarium shop to feed my bettas when I go on vacation in a couple months. I had to test it out before relying on it, so I put one of these in each of 10 betta vases.

After three days these things hadn't started to dissolve. So, I fed the bettas a little of their regular food figuring that when I am going to leave on vacation, I could drop these in a few days ahead, giving the tablets time to start working.

After another day on this trial run, I did notice the tablets starting to dissolve. I hoped the fish would eat it... But there was no sign of any of the stuff being eaten. The tablets disolved at different rates. Of the ten, a couple of them didn't seem to dissolve much at all in a week. One of my ten bettas died on the sixth day. Another looked very weak, and even after another week of normal care hasn't recovered to normal.

If I don't come up with a better solution before vacation, I will just feed them twice a day, rather than once a day for a couple days before leaving, then give them one last big feeding as I leave the house. I'll still drop these tablets in with them in case they will decide to eat some of it.

Once these things do dissolve, it just looks like colored slime on the battom of the bowl. I definitely will not buy again.

I've bought this feeder before one of my long weekends so I wouldn't have to worry about feeding my Betta. In a middle of the week I decided to make sure it works while I'm still home. I dropped it in aquarium. My first reaction was: "Why did it drown?"; Bettas are surface feeders. So, I thought, maybe the released food will float up? It didn't.

Totally useless product.

Tetra Whisper Power Filter 40, 40-Gallon

Tetra Whisper Power Filter 40, 40-GallonI have used the Tetra Whisper filters on many different tanks for many years. I was quite sad to see them

apparently go away for a while. Seeing the filters available once again and I immediately bought a couple,

actually three now. Two have been returned and I am using the current one till I find a replacement.

The Whisper filters of old I thought were quite aptly named since were it not being able to see the water movement

across the surface of the tank you would never even know they were running.

NOT the case now... the first one was so noisy I thought for sure there has to be some kind of defect. Returning

it and buyihng another. Well.. once again, incredibly noisy. Thinking third time was a charm I decided to try

one more. I don't know what Tetra has done to these filters but whatever it was, please UNDO it. Unless you meant

Whisper to be completely sarcastic.

I had a good experience with the whisper 60 and the whispser 20. but for some reason the whisper 40 is so loud.... it started off quiet for about a month and i was happy(not to mention i could save some money) . but as soon as i took it out to clean the tubes and impeller. booom louder and louder it got(i went thru 3 of these) . i cleaned them up and returned them all. DO NOT BUY THE 40 FOR SOME REASON THEY CANT GET IT RIGHT... I purchased the marineland emperor 280 power filter(it was 15 dollars more)but well spent and well made. its so quiet i only hear my air pump. sorry whisper. but u should revamp the 40 gallon powerfilter. its junk...

This is by far the noisiest filter I have ever heard. Gave it one star because I had to give it something. Have no idea how it filters because I couldn't stand the droning noise for more than half an hour. My fish tank is in a semi-enclosed area where the noise echoes out into the room. My job requires me to transcribe work using ear phones. Could not hear with this going. Hopefully I can get my money back. Bought it replace a Top Fin because I couldn't find a replacement for the strainer end. The much quieter Top Fin is back in place with a temporary strainer.

JW Pet Company Aquarium Hand Held Scrubber Pad

JW Pet Company Aquarium Hand Held Scrubber PadHaving been keeping fish and designing tanks for over 35 years the battle against algea continues and I often find myself on the losing end, especially with some of my tanks that recieve indirect sunlight.

Well, there's a new weaponin town by JW Pet and it works beautifully. I've used other hand held scrubbers but they usually look like flat floor scrubbers with handles. What sets this product apart is the smart ergonomic design and the curved and rolled edges of the scrubbing material itself. The scrubber does a great job and makes corners, ornamental stone and both large and small crevices where algea likes to hide easy to reach and clean. Used along with the proper sized Magni-Float these two products are sure to become your favorite in the ever growing arsenal against algea.

Standard Replacement bulb. Put it in to replace a blown bulb, it worked. The last one of these I had from a LFS I paid $25 for and it only lasted 4 months at 12 hours a day on. I dont know if I got a bad bulb or maybe the life span on these is kind of low. either way when I got this one for $15 How can I complain.
