Marineland (Aquaria) AMLPR3410 Aquarium Hood with Lamp Base Replacement Assembly for Eclipse Power

Marineland AMLPR3410 Aquarium Hood with Lamp Base Replacement Assembly for Eclipse Power Filter System Model 12We purchased this replacement cover for an Eclipse 12 freshwater home aquarium. The Eclipse 12 is what many wold consider a modest "desktop" sized aquarium that is great for home or office, and especially great for kids. Well, the hinged lid on the Eclipse we had broke, as did the built in light.

We purchased this new hood with lamp base to keep out Eclipse 12 running. This unit is well made, and we were happy to get a light that could work again, as the other died as a result of calcium deposits ( typical with hard water, no fault of the product).

Everything was great, until we realized this hood assembly did not come with a lid to keep the fish from jumping out of the tank! The Eclipse 12 came with a lid, but it brokeso we were expecting this replacement to have the lid already in it. NOPE.

This product is well made and works fine, but lacking that lidI just don't get it....it's a $2.00 plastic part that should ABSOLUTELY be part of this package for the price! If you are in need of a lid too, be aware that you will have to find one separately. We have been unable to locate one as of yet!!

Given that fact that this is not a standard hood size makes this tank undesirable. The filtration system is good, but the hood design is the worst. The light goes out a lot and the bulbs are $12 each. The little flap to feed the fish is a strange shape and right over the carbon filter so half the time you end up feeding the filter instead of the fish and it gets messy. I think I paid $89 at the local shop for the tank, but the hood system itself is $35 to replace.

I would stick with the standard size aquariums with the standard hoods and pay extra for a fluval filtration system and nice skimmer. I'm reconsidering replacing the tank instead of buying the new hood system.

The tank is pleasing to look at and is bright, though.

When our original lamp broke (poor design cover cracked and moisture gets in) I ordered this. While it works, it is still a poor design and I'm sure will break again within a year or so. Plus, this doesn't fit the tank quite the same as the original and now the tank has calcium/lime build up all down the sides of the tank an d not just the lid.

Penn-Plax Here & There - Home & Traveler - Large

Penn-Plax Here & There - Home & Traveler - LargeI bought this cage after pouring through reviews on all the cages out there. I had hamsters as a kid and still remembered how cheap they could be. Quite frankly, I chose this one based on the comments from the breeder saying they use the whole product line.

I liked that it was a self contained unit without tubes connecting outside the cage. I have had hamsters escape from tubes and based on the reviews of other cages it looks like they haven't solved the issue in the last 20 years. This one seemed ideal because it had a tube but it made up the spine of the cage. The other appeal for me was that it was tall and narrow, so the hamster had a lot of space without taking up our space in the house.

That said, when we tried to assemble it everything fell apart, literally. The cage is made up of three seperate wire pieces that sort of hinge together, then the tube slides into the gap and the whole thing locks into the base. Since the walls are made of four interlocking parts the cage is a bit wobbly. We weren't very concerned since we assumed the three levels and the top would stabalize the whole cage. HOWEVER, the levels do not lock onto the cage. Bumps or notches in the level jet out and rest on the tube and wire cage. During assembly the levels would slip down a rung on one side or just collapse all together. To be thorough, we completed the assembly to see if the stairs and the top would help stabalize the levels by locking everything together. We knew this was an excercise in futility. The stairs click into one level and rest on the on below it, so it didn't add support. The top locks in and it DID tighten things up but, as expected the levels fell just by jiggling it back and forth.

If it wasn't a hamster death trap it would have been perfect! I am surprised the other reviewers did not mention this issue. I must allow the possiblity that mine is somehow defective but I can't fathom how. We had all the pieces and the three levels were formed exactly the same.

I am waiting to hear back from the seller, Aquarium Decor & More, regarding return. Hopefully it will not be an issue.

I am a hamster breeder of Russian dwarf hamsters and I have five different 'Here and There' cages from Penn-Plax. One is the economy and it is a good price but my hamsters like the larger versions. I have two small, one medium, and one large. My favorite is the Medium one, I call this one the large. It is a well built cage, easy to clean, my hamsters love climbing the bubble tube up to the top level. It is easy to detach the carrier on the top. I have tried several other brands even a ten gallon tank and the 'Here and There' cages are the best on the market. You won't go wrong buying this one for your fist hamster. It holds 6 to 8 easily, but I suggest no more then 6 Russian dwarf hamsters.

Other breeds are solitary and you cannot put more then one in a cage!!

I personally use this one as my breeding case because there is so much room for momma and papa with the little ones to grow in. When momma pushes the babies out of the nest daddy takes over teaching and caring for them. It is good to leave them all together for a month and a half. It is so much fun to watch the little ones clime all over this cage.

Keep in mind that all sizes of this cage have the same try size so the more dwarf hamsters you have in the cage the more often you need to change the bedding. I really do love these cages. I have had a few hamsters escape but only one was from one of these cages but, since these guys are very social it isn't long before they come find you for food or water. One who escaped from a fish tank came running into my son's lap one night while he was playing video games sitting on the floor. Spooked them both.

We love this cage! We have a fat hamster and he fits perfectly in this roomy cage. There are so many levels for him to explore. My only small complaint is the wheel is not really quiet. When my hamster runs in it, it shakes the whole cage and you just hear this rattling. Maybe it's because he's so fat. Who knows...

Read Best Reviews of Penn-Plax Here & There - Home & Traveler - Large Here

This is a nice cage and spacious, but if your hamster is a climber than do not get this! When I mean climber, I mean climbs up the cage wires... this is exactly what my hamster would do, she climbed the wires all the way to the top and would just fall! Or when she got to the 4th level, she was too stupid to realize to take the ramp or elevator tube to go down, so she would try to climb down with the cage wires and would just fall. If you have a docile hamster who isnt retarded and wont climb the wires, get this cage. Otherwise stay away, or your hamster might die from falling.

Had very hard time assembling this. It was also a nightmare when it came time to clean it because it was hard to take off the top (it cracked) the levels kept moving and the whole thing came apart. Not worth the effort. Upset because I realized what a pain in the neck this was going to be everytime I have to clean it and now I can't return it. Here and There Large Unit Home and Traveler

Nylabone Roast Beef/Chicken Variety 34-Count Pantry Pack

Nylabone Roast Beef/Chicken Variety 34-Count Pantry PackMy barely 5 lb. 6 months old yorkie loves these bones! I have been buying them for a few months now and she is so excited when ever she knows she is getting one. They also keep her occupied for a little while as she tries to burry them into blankets, the couch cusions, and any corner of the house she can. Very entertaining! But once she is ready to eat them she goes to town and doesn't want anybody messing with her because she doesn't want them to take the bone from her, very protective over the bone. Also, better price on Amazon than they are at PetSmart or anywhere else!

Arial a female Golden Labrador of 70lbs loves these even more than the White bone "Check Ups" dental bones. She is very particular and won't bite until it passes the sniff test.

YML Aquarium Net Breeder, Medium

YML Aquarium Net Breeder, MediumI love the the size and every thing seems to fit well enough. Although there were no instruction and nothing to go by. So I had to go on the internet to see what it should look like also one of the suction cups were broken. I mght by another one if it holds up.

Update: my original 4 stars is now 2 because it does not hold any fry which it was bought for and the suction cups do not work in the end I had to throw it away.

This guppy breeding net was horrible. It was way to big for my tank, it was a flimsy little piece of junk, and it sucked. It didn't even come with insructions of how to put it together! The frame was flimsy, and broke very easily. The pegs that hold it together were wierd shaped and didn't fit in the holes very well. The actual net was pretty much just a hairnet. The only thing it actually did was keep the bigger fish away from the guppy. I would NOT reccomend this product.

Buy YML Aquarium Net Breeder, Medium Now

At first glance, the product looks pretty neat. Some may say that its size is too small, but 10.3 inches is 10.3 inches. So no cribs on that. However, the net is of extremely poor quality and had started ripping off the bottom seams when I received it. In case you want to use this breeder net, I recommend that you glue the bottom seams (with silicon sealant)to the plastic base after you slip the net on. The other problem is with the suction cups. They fit loosely into the slots provided. It is better to apply some silicon glue to the suction cup slots once you have placed the suction cups. So in case you still decide to purchase this product, make sure that you do have some silicon glue on hand.

Read Best Reviews of YML Aquarium Net Breeder, Medium Here

This is a descent size breeder net. I Have African Cichlids up to 5" long and these nets work well.

There are a few little things that could be better, but I was able to rig it up easily enough.

The suction cups that hold it up are facing up, so the net needs to be hung from the tank lid.

Not very practical, so I had to hot glue different cups that would hold the net to the side of the tank instead.

Now they work perfect, they hold the Momma fish until the she spits her fry, then it lets the fry grow in safety.

I've tried others and they were either to small or nothing would keep them near the surface of the tank. So for

the money and a minor adjustment this will do the job.

Want YML Aquarium Net Breeder, Medium Discount?

This net is a lot bigger than I thought it was, however it fits nicely inside my 20 gallon tank and I can see the rest of the tank plus the babies within the netting. The only downfall I have with this set up is that it collects dirt and debris from the tank and gets stuck in the netting and is nearly impossible to get out and clean it back to the orgional state, and the suction cups have a tendency to get worn and not hold anymore after a while. It does work for its purpose however, as I have managed to successfully raise 17 different batches of Guppy babies in it thus far.

Perfecto Manufacturing APF10050 Aquarium Tank, 5.5-Gallon, Black

Perfecto Manufacturing APF10050 Aquarium Tank, 5.5-Gallon, BlackThe tank itself is your basic tank--a good tank.

So other than the green, the colors and the detail on this ornament look great.

Kritter Keeper, Small

Kritter Keeper, SmallMake no mistake, you shouldn't try to keep animals in the Kritter Keeper indefinitely if they are of any real size (larger than a few inches) or if they are fish. However, these containers are absolutely ideal for insects and other creepy-crawlies like spiders, centipedes, worms, and any other "bug". I highly recommend these for people who catch bugs outdoors in warm weather. Great for kids!

By the way, I wouldn't rely on that handle. It looks a tad flimsy. Carry the Keeper by its sides.

The holes in the top make this unusable (without modification) for containing many insects.

The slats that you can see in the picture are big enough for many bugs to escape. What you can't see in the picture, is that for some reason the designers decided to add 2 much larger holes on one side of the top...

These holes are big enough to allow a Yellowjacket to escape. (Ask me how I know.)

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!!

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....

Glo Power-Glo T8 Fluorescent Aquarium Bulb, 30-Watt, 36-Inch

Glo Power-Glo T8 Fluorescent Aquarium Bulb, 30-Watt, 36-InchI have a dual-socket fixture in my 58 gallon bowfron Penn Plax aquarium. I use one of these bulbs along with an 18000 Kelvin (blue wavelength) spectrum bulb. This combination gives great illumination with a pleasing color balance. Using just the daylight spectrum by itself is rather dull in my opinion.

Allpet is very fast and the packageing is great. I will buy again, but this bulb is not a T-10 as the description says, it is a T-8. Bulbs are very bright and fit my 3" ballast. Overall I am happy with my purchase.

Product gets 5 stars but I wanted a T-10.

Perfecto Manufacturing Full Flo Hood 30" Black

Perfecto Manufacturing Full Flo Hood 30' Black
  • Size: 30 Inch

I bought this for my 29 gallon and I think if I had to go back, I may have bought the dual aqueon hood. I have just started to get into plants and in the front where the feeding door is there is a long dark spot. Its bulky, hard to handle and if you want to move/get into the tank you have to remove the entire lid. I have scratched up my arms pretty good when I reach into the tank through the feed door.

pro:

good for simple aquarium for simple plants

Covers the top of the tank well and cut out for the filters

Ample space for the feed door

Con:

Hard to handle with one hand

needs another bulb for high light planting

bulky/wasted space on design

Buy Perfecto Manufacturing Full Flo Hood 30" Black Now

I'm very impressed with this hood. I bought this for a 29g tank that measures 30" X 13". This is a universal fit hood that sits on top of the frame (instead of sitting inside on the ledges). There are several plastic nubs that you break off depending on the brand so this seats perfectly. My hood hung over the back about 1cm but that was ok as it still covered everything and the back is hidden anyway.

I'm impressed with this hood as it's very high quality. The plastic is nice and strong and everything is well made. Everything works well. The light fixture is separate from the cover so you can remove it when changing the water. There is a strip of plastic in the back that can be cut for cord and air tubing access. I waited a long time to get a 30" hood because they're pretty expensive and I'm very glad I got this deal. This is my second Perfecto brand hood and I like their hoods very much.

Eco Plus Large Round Air Stone

Eco Plus Large Round Air StoneStrong bubbles. Had it for a couple months now and still works like a champ.

Great for cloning if your trying hydroponics. The bubbles the stone creates splash the stems perfectly for even distribution.

The air stone I received did not look like the one in the picture. Instead, it looked almost exactly like this:Hydrofarm ASCL Large Active Aqua Air Stone Cylinder, which I ordered for comparison. The only difference was that the sealant used to secure the fitting was more like cement rather than rubber sealant. The other product is also a dollar cheaper. However, because they are so similar they probably will be similarly good.

Update: Be sure to have a powerful pump to use this air-stone to full effect. Something rated for up to 20 gallons is too little; bubbles will only come out of the top where the fitting enters the stone. Added a star because it works fine with a 7.8L/min pump.

I got two of these river rock bags to place in a large glass hurricane together with a candle. They work perfectly. While there were a few bigger rocks in both bags (approx. 2.5" to 3"), the majority are around 1.5", give or take. All of the rocks were intact, none broken. Their polish is nice and natural looking, not overly shiny.

Spectrastone Nutmeg for Freshwater Aquariums, 25-Pound Bag

Spectrastone Nutmeg for Freshwater Aquariums, 25-Pound BagI really Like how much This Estes' Natural Aggregates Nutmeg Gravel (25-lb bag) matches my current Gravel in my 29 gallon Aquarium!

When I get my 55 gallon fish tank in the near Future, I will buy more of this Gravel! I recommend Estes' Gravel as it is really nice for aquariums!

I ordered this gravel because I wanted something natural looking but with more variation in the colors than what I was seeing at my local stores. This gravel does just that. It's pretty, and overall I'm very happy with it, but the picture makes the gravel look darker than what it actually is. My gravel is more of a light cream color with a few darker pieces mixed in.

Dogtra No Bark Collar

Dogtra No Bark CollarI think this is a good product. Has both stimulation mode and just vibration mode which is great. My dog barks at vehicles with loud exhaust and other random things, when he first barked with this on the freaked out that it 'corrected' him. He learned very quick as in he almost now thinks its punishment in a way if it's on so he knows not to bark.

Key on sizing: it just says YS300 over 10 lbs. YS500 over 20 lbs. may dog is 35 lbs so I order YS500, way too big. YS500 probable should say over 60lbs. They both have straps you can cut which are long, my dogs neck girth is 24" and the YS300 strap had 6+" left.

Dogtra No Bark Collar

Only had to use the vibrating to stop my male poodle from barking. He calms down and doesn't bark. It really helped.

Buy Dogtra No Bark Collar Now

We got this collar because our 7+ year old lab mix was barking so much, she was driving everyone crazy, including our 3 other dogs. She has always been a huge barker but she just got to the point where it was really intolerable. All the behavioral methods we tried weren't working, and I tried those other methods for a year before trying this! This collar was recommended by our dog trainer specifically because it has a vibration only setting. The first day, I set it on vibrate because she was trained to an invisible fence pretty easily so thought it might work at that level. She noticed it but kept barking, so the next day I turned it up just to the next level. She barked, it zapped her, she cried, then she shut up and she hasn't barked for the past two days. I have it back to the vibration only setting because I don't want her to cry, and she seems to have gotten the message. So, although I have only been using this for a week, I think that if you need to get your dog to be quiet, this will do it. She is a 60+ pound dog with a big neck, and it fits her just fine even though it says small to medium size.

Read Best Reviews of Dogtra No Bark Collar Here

Our dog is small (12 pounds) and I had no problem cutting the collar down to fit her. I only had to set it on 2 in order to get her to quit barking. One day of shocks was all it took for her to learn (actually, only two shocks did it!). Now, all I have to do when she starts barking is say, "I'll get the collar out!" and she quits immediately. The best money I ever spent on our little Dusty. Life is peaceful once again!

Want Dogtra No Bark Collar Discount?

I looked at a lot of collars, and eventually decided to buy it. I have a English Pointer that is a nut case when it comes to barking. I had a battery powered one that I had originally bought for $25. and it wasn't doing the job. She had learned to pitch her voice so that it did not shock her all the time. Sometimes she would get the shock, but only if she got careless. I would love to say that the Dogtra totally corrected her barking, but alas, she has learned to get around this one as well sometimes.

The thing that attracted me to this collar is that it has a vibration warning built in to the collar. She knows what the vibration means, but she has learned that if she waits longer than the 15 seconds, she can bark again and only experience the vibration. Rarely she will miscalculate and get the shock, but not often.

I gave it a 5 star rating, as nothing will totally stop this dog from expressing her opinion. This one is the best that I have found however. I have had it for several months and after charging it once when I got it, it is still holding enough power that it does not indicate that it needs recharging yet.

I would definitely recommend this collar. It is built well, and a well thought out product.

LEDwholesalers 20 Inch LED Light Tube Light for Aquarium Moonlight 10-30 Volt DC, 2045bu

LEDwholesalers 20 Inch LED Light Tube Light for Aquarium Moonlight 10-30 Volt DC, 2045bu
  • Operating Voltage: 10 to 30 Volt AC/DC (requires separate power supply)
  • Ultra 30 Degree Angled LEDs for Full Coverage
  • Lightweight & Durable Aliminum Cover
  • Wide Angle LED for wide coverage
  • Low Heat, Ultra long led lifespan!

The light is very compact and bright. Unfortunately the design is cheap and LEDs are not cooled properly. Even if you power it at the lowest voltage rated (10V) and the strip is mounted on flat conductive surface, the LEDs will dim down very significantly after a few minutes of turning it ON. If you try powering it at 24V, LEDs will dim dow to about 10% of the initial light output in less than 30 s.

Not recommended.

I have an Red Sea Max 130D and wanted more of the blue actinic look for when the main compact fluorescents were not turned on (the standard moon lights that comes with the tank are two wimpy small blue LEDs). This light bar fits in light housing perfectly! I had to wire it to a DC wall adapter, but even the most novice electrician can do this (some electrical tape, wire stripper, scissors, and crimp connectors some shrink tubing if you want to get fancy) and then screw the two mounting brackets in to the metal light deflector. The light is the perfect wavelength (453) to get the fluorescent colors of the coral to pop the also give a nice shimmer on the sand bed and do not have a spotlight effect. the light is FAR brighter than i expected (which is a good thing for the application i wanted) If you are going with a smaller tank (
