Acurel F 25

Acurel F 25I usually only review products when I'm blown away and this product prompted me to sit down and write this review. I established a 30 gallon freshwater aquarium and about two weeks after it was stocked with fish the water started to get quality. It was very annoying because the water was very clear previous to this. I knew that the aquarium was cycling and the cloudiness was natural but I didn't have the patience to wait it out. I came across the same video that a previous reviewer mentioned regarding the pet shop owner who was recommending Acurel and after reading customer reviews on Amazon and Petco's website with people who were raving about it, I decided to try it. I put the first dosage in last night and within 45 minutes you could see the results. It got much clearer but not as clear as it was before the cycle began. After some of the cloudiness returned today, I gave it a slightly larger dose and an hour later...that tank is CRYSTAL clear. I mean it looks like the fish are floating on air. The fact that this product does not affect water chemistry is amazing. I'm blown away by the results this product gets and I urge you to buy this right away if you are having water clarity problems in your fish tank. But DON'T forget to do your weekly 10-15% water changes to assist with the cycling process because this product does not lower ammonia or nitrate levels.

It's a Miracle!!!

I haven't had a decent clear tank of water since I first set up my tank. It's a little 5.5 Gallon. The only time it was clear was when I first filled it. Since then... it's been various levels of cloudiness. I filled it with Well water. I added the recommended conditioners. It being a new tank, I added "seed" fish (Fathead Minnows). All but one of the fish died. I had a very bad case of New Tank Syndrome. I decided to start over. I cleaned the heck out of everything. This time I used Spring water. I added the conditioners. It started out crystal clear... but after a couple of days, clouded up again. I used a water clarifier... a floculant type... it did zip... a waste of money. The water tested OK... but remained cloudy. I decided to be patient. I did a lot of research... joined forums... I followed all the advice I could find about setting up a new tank... and getting the water right biologically. I added this, that, and the other thing... as recommended. Nothing Worked. I used 3 other water treatment products that all made fantastic claims about creating a crystal clear, biologically balanced, environment in my aquarium.

2 1/2 months into it with my cloudy tank, and just one Fathead Minnow left... he was from the first batch... apparently a hardy little guy. Just for fun, I added a Crayfish that I found in a nearby creek (tons of fun, extremely entertaining, super hardy and easy to care for... and gets along great with my Fathead Minnow). He's doing awesome, but eats vegetables, algea wafers, frozen shrimp, etc... anything/everything you throw in the tank. The water was always cloudy... and I thought, with the salad bar my Crayfish was eating... the water would never clear up.

I wandered into Petco to browse around. I found the "Acurel F" and read the label. I thought, Ok, I'll bite. I bought the "Accurel F", but didn't get my hopes up. I followed the directions. I added 2 drops per gallon (the minimum recommended amount). About 2 hours later I checked it. It was very clear, a significant difference... but I thought not quite a 100%. I added 5 more drops. The recommendations were to start with 2-4 drops so I was still in the range. Within 4 hours, as stated on the package... Crystal Clear Water. Beautiful!

My recommendation... start with the lowest dose... and work your way up as necessary. I've been maintaining the clarity in my 5.5 Gal. tank with just 2 drops a day.

"Accurel F" Awesome Product.

Glofish Plastic Plants Large Starfire Red, Ambulia

Glofish Plastic Plants Large Starfire Red, AmbuliaShipped 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.

Marineland Eclipse Hex 5 Intergrated Aquarium System (5 Gal)

Marineland Eclipse Hex 5 Intergrated Aquarium SystemI bought this last year and it runs pretty well. One problem I've had is trying to find a replacement flourescent light bulb without paying $25 for shipping. My local fish store apparently can't get them either so I bought a $2 incandescent lite bulb not as brite or white but gets the job done.

I don't recommend this for a goldfish tank as goldfish are very messy fish and will out grow this tank in less than 6 months. I currently have 5 neon tetras and 6 t-bone rasboras. This is a nice combo cause rasboras are top of the tank fish and neons are bottom of the tank dwellers.

Easy to clean, pump works well and is very quiet.

Please do your research on what fish can tolerate a small 5 gallon tank before you get fish for this tank.

This is the perfect tank for my Betta fish and 3 ghost shrimp! It is not only a beautiful tank, but I like that the footprint is smaller than a regular rectangle 5 gallon tank. The filter current is not too strong for our Betta (which is something to consider with filters and Bettas). I have a decorated it with a couple large leaf silk plant (silk plants are best for Betta so as to not damage their fins) and black gravel so the ghost shrimp are more visible. I also put in a bridge decoration that either the shrimp or our Betta like to hang out under.

The Betta hammock is also a good buy for the Betta to lounge on near the surface, which they enjoy. Best Quality Betta Bed Leaf Hammock / Size By Zoo Med Laboratories

I recommend getting the freshwater master test kit, too API Freshwater Master Test Kit so you can test your water weekly to ensure the safety of your fish. Don't forget your weekly partial water changes!

You should also get a thermometer (the ones that go in the water are best) Marina Floating Thermometer with Suction Cup and also a heater, required for tropical Betta fish (we keep our betta's water temp at 78) and have this heater Aqueon 100009498 Aqueon Submersible Heater / Size (50 Watt). We tried a different heater at first, and it was terrible because it was not adjustable and kept the water at 82! Too hot! But the Aqueon 50 watt keeps the temp exactly where it needs to be. It's not very pretty, so just stick a plant in front of it ;)

We love this hex 5 tank! Beautiful, easy to set-up, easy to use!

Catalina Aquarium CA 4000 Aqua Pump / Powerhead 1300 GPH

Catalina Aquarium CA 4000 Aqua Pump / Powerhead 1300 GPHGot the job done for my diy wet/dry trickle filter/sump powerful flow, works great have been running it for months and it works great!

Pump works great and is not noisy at all if you use the rubber suction cup "feet" and keep away from the side of the sump. HOWEVER, right now I have a ton of microbubbles...not sure why, i will be trying a few things to remedy that issue. I will update this review based on how it turns out

Buy Catalina Aquarium CA 4000 Aqua Pump / Powerhead 1300 GPH Now

I purchased this pump to in hopes that it would be quieter than the one I had already, plus I needed a bit more power. This pump delivered the power as advertised but it is very noisy. I wrote to the company and got a prompt reply. They tried hard to help me and sent me a new impeller to try. The new impeller didn't fix the problem. I switched to a pump made by Lifegard called "Quiet One."

Been running this pump for a year and a half without stopping.

I only stop the pump when I do a water change for about 30 minutes then I start up the pump again.

No problems so far.

Want Catalina Aquarium CA 4000 Aqua Pump / Powerhead 1300 GPH Discount?

If your looking for a pump that will be pumping the water upwards meaning max head for a sump system go to the pumps website first wether it be this brand or another and check first because you could save some money if your attaching a hose that will need to go 4ft straight up to the aquarium. This pump that says 1300 gph or say the Catalina 2200, 3000 or 6000 which say different gph, some more, some less but if you need to pump water 4 ft straight up to your aquarium these end up pumping pretty close to the same amount of water.

K&H Ultimate All-In-One Stock Tank De-Icer Removable Floater Ring

K&H Ultimate All-In-One Stock Tank De-Icer 250-Watt Removable Floater RingI love these heaters. We now have a bunch of them to keep horses' water ice-free. We have other types of heaters and even heated buckets but these are my favorite in terms of value for money and fuss free maintenance. They are absolutely no additional work easy to install and easy to take out to clean the water tanks. Plus, they come with a free floater ring if you want to convert yours to a floating heater (wouldn't work with my mouthy geldings) and a shepherd's-hook type of attachment to help securing the cord to the side of the tank. Even with the unusually cold weather we've been having here in NC, 250W heaters are perfectly sufficient to keep 50gal stock tanks clear.

The quality is perfectly fine, and the engineering is clearly geared towards being able to withstand curious equines.. I don't know that they are built to last till the end of the earth, but they are solid and should work at least a couple of years. At about 10% of a cost of typical vet colic call, I'd say they are well worth the money (not to mention now I can sit in my house, in my pyjamas and have my morning coffee without worrying that i have to go break the horses' water again ... and again, and again and again).

I think the reviewers who said they do not work might be either (1) trying to heat too large of an area (a pond? really????) or (2) just got defective units, which happens with all electrical appliances now and then. Either that or we got really lucky but none of our five have had any problems at all and they do exactly what they are intended to do at a good price with minimum fuss required. If one of mine broke I'd buy another one in without a second thought.

Bought this for my 700 gallon pond after the Farm Innovators Heated Pond Saucer Model PS-200, 200-Watt deicer started to trip my GFI after only 2 months of use! (After taking that one from the water, could hear water slooshing around inside the disk.)

Seems like a good design because of the option to have it float or not, the 250 watt option and it's not a disk that will eventually leak in water.

I was leery of buying this because it said it is for a stock tank but the coils are surrounded so I don't see a way that it could damage a pond liner.

This one has kept the water open for the 1-2 months since I've bought it. I just hope I'm able to use it next year!

We are using this de-icer in a 50 gallon Rubbermaid stock tank. It works great! We took off the float part to make it submersible, the horses are leaving it alone. The clip keeps the cord somewhat secure to the side. Temps dropped to 18F last night and no ice to be seen in the tank.

Check the website for K&H Manufacture to see what zone you are in and which wattage will work best for you. I was surprised to find that a 250w would work with a 50 gallon, but it does. Less of a drain our electric and wallet!

For us and our horses, this was a good buy!

Wow! I cannot believe the performance of this mighty 250W de-icer. Right after I purchased it, we had 3 weeks of below freezing weather so it got a work-out. The K&H is in a 150 gallon tank (it is only rated for 30 gal in our climate). Occasionally in the morning there is some ice on the edges, but plenty of ice free water for my horses. I am planning to purchase another for a second tank. This is a great product.

Awesome heater, using them out at the farm in 100 gallon water tanks with no problem here in Kansas City, Missouri, the 500 watt model also......a real electric saver! the plastic housings do not rust and discolor the water like other cage models do! I just ordered two more!! Fast shipping ,,, great seller!

Kent Marine PhytoPlex

Kent Marine 00554 PhytoPlex, 8-Ounce BottleMy Xenia loves this stuff. Keep in the fridge to keep it fresh it does have an odor if you don't.

I used a disposable pipette to target feed my four frags of coral with this product and it was as if they doubled in size in minutes. Sounds crazy, I know, but it is like the coral was on caffeine! They perked up and the colors were brighter and just look ten times better than when I bought them from my local fish store. I have been using it for only a few days so growth rate I am unsure of but so far it is phenomenal. Definitely a great product for coral.

I use this in rotation with zooplex, reef roids, and coral frenzy. I get great growth, great coloration and extended polyps on all my sps, nps, lps and feather dusters. It also doesn't seem to mess with my levels either.

All Glass Aquarium AAG21530 Fluorescent Deluxe Hood, 30-Inch

All Glass Aquarium AAG21530 Fluorescent Deluxe Hood, 30-InchThis is a very nice aquarium hood, with flourescent lighting, and it comes with a tube, ready to go!Just plug it in.

Overall very pleased with delivery it was right on schedule. The product is light weight and could break easily if used roughly. I did find the "cut outs" in the back to be a bit of a challenge to "break" for the filter etc. My main concern is that it does not fit up over the aquarium so therefore there is a big possibility that, if not careful, you could end up with the whole thing in the tank!!! A bit dangerous with the lighting and all.

Buy All Glass Aquarium AAG21530 Fluorescent Deluxe Hood, 30-Inch Now

This light and hood is as described and functions well, however the included light bulb is not as bright as some of the others that I have had. Also the included instructions were not for the proper item, but that is not that important. I did have a difficult time cutting out the holes for the filter and heater to fit in the back, maybe there was a trick to it, but like I said I did not have the instructions. Otherwise so far so good.

Loving Pets Vegitopia Banana Slices Dog Treats, 5-Ounces

Loving Pets Vegitopia Banana Slices Dog Treats, 5-OuncesI purchased these for my dog...first of all, they're a disgusting black/brown color. Definitely not appetizing. They smell HORRIBLE. I could barely get one out before I had to throw the bag away from me because I thought I was going to be sick. My dog refuses to go anywhere near these things. Do not buy! Make your own!

I ordered these because my dogs like crunchy banana chips. The picture makes these look crunchy and light yellow. What I received was dark brown, squishy banana chips. The expiration was fine. I just want everyone to know that they are not the yellow, crunchy ones.

This product does not glow at all...it does have that yellow "glow" color of a dead glow stick though, lol..it just doesn't glow in the dark =(((( super disappointed about it

Quiet One Lifegard Aquarium Pump, 819-Gallon Per Hour

Quiet One Lifegard Aquarium Pump, 819-Gallon Per HourThis has been pumping strong for quite some time now. I've got it in my wet/dry filter as a return pump submerged. It's nice to be able to adjust the flow when needed. It's very quiet and if you have the water appropriately filtered prior to the return chamber, it requires minimal mainteance. My Rio 800 venturi in the protein skimmer makes more noise than this. I have a piece of filter floss under it to help with vibration/noise.
