Buy AquaClear 110 Foam Insert Now
This is the standard AquaClear 110 filter insert that you may find in your LFS or box store. I order them here because I usually can't get locally on a consistent basis. They last a good amount of time but don't seem to be quite as well made as they used to be. The material seems to fall apart faster than it did a few years ago. Nothing is made like it used to be anymore.these new aquaclear 110 foam appear at least an inch smaller than the chamber dimension. i like most of my Hagen product, but so disappointed with this one. hope they will make the adjustment to the size so they can fit better or i have to look for alternative solution for my filters.the filter works great and fits perfect in the chamber .... very porous which is essential for the growth of bacteriaThursday, October 23, 2014

5283 GPH Submersible Water Pump Pond Pump Fountain Waterfall Pump
Edit:07Jun13: Hooked it up a week ago and man can this pump move water. It is the return pump for our 240 gallon reef tank and it really moves the detritus around for filtration. Down side; it runs warm. So to fix this, I have a fan blowing on the sump. Eventually going to need a chiller.

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMBB9 Nano Banquet Block Mini
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.

Buy JW Pet Company Accuair 4-Way Aquarium Gang Valve Now
For multi vavles...this is a pain...better to get the valves that just has a lever....this product works okay...but if you spend 10's of dollars on the aquarium....spend another dollar on a better valve....since you use it everyday when feeding you fish....the company is great...fast efficient....but the need to get the all metal valves.Read Best Reviews of JW Pet Company Accuair 4-Way Aquarium Gang Valve Here
The clear plastic breaks and cracks easily. Not recommended. Instead, I suggust purchasing the hard plastic black ones found at PetSmart.Want JW Pet Company Accuair 4-Way Aquarium Gang Valve Discount?
I have this valve on my 75 gallon freshwater tank and it works very well. I have one valve off and i am using three valves. Works well on a glass aquarium but i wouldnt get this for outdoor use or an acrylic tank unless you have an alternative mounting plan.Thursday, September 11, 2014

This product would work if it would assemble. I got this and was very excited until I started to assemble it, the j tube didn't fit. I figured out a way to use it without the j tube and then the O ring didn't fit! it was ridiculous. I am going to see if I can return this Item and hopefully get an SWC or Reef Octopus skimmer insted, besides it will be worth it.Want Aquarium Protein Skimmer with 300 GPH Fish Tank Pump Discount?

All Glass Aquarium AAG29020 Versa Top, 20-Inch
As another reviewer mentioned the hood is 19.5" long, which means it will fit a standard 20" x 10" framed tank perfectly.This is much better than the plastic one my aquarium came with. It is lightweight, easy to clean, I have not noticed any water evaporation ever since I installed this, and I can customize the back where the filters, etc., are stored using only a scissor. I definitely recommend this for anyone to use.

The product arrived a day early and was protected well. It does require a very minimal amount of assembly, but well worth the money. It fits my ten gallon tank and keeps the humidity elevated consistently (almost too well). Additionally, there is a plastic sheath that is the back 1/4 of the cover. This allows airflow and humidity regulation. Moreover, the lid folds over in the middle allowing easy access. Here's a breakdown:Pros: sturdy glass, heavy enough to keep hermit crabs in, allows air circulation, folding lid, keeps humidity high
Cons: may keep humidity too high (I prop up the cover with a stick sometimes), only fits standard 10gallon tank.

Red Sea Reef Foundation Test Kit - Calcium, Alkalinity & Magnesium
Before this I was using a Salifert Kit and was getting results that were often hard to read. If you do these tests properly and keep adding the titration drops until you get a full color change that will not change any further then you will get accurate results.
I really like the handheld titration unit which makes it much easier to accurately does single drops will mixing.
Comes with a nice hard case as well as ultra clear glass vials. I really believe it's the best kit out there for the money.

Aqua-Glo Fluorescent Bulb, 14 Watt, 15 Inches
It was the exact same brand that had burned out (after 7 years and a move to a different state) so it's not like i did a ton of research and decided this was the best.
I did notice, it was the cheapest for it's size and wattage on amazon, and it works so there ya go, buy it alreadyWorking as expected. I am glad I was able to find this bulb online as my local pet stores stopped carrying them.

Red Sea Fish Pharm ARE22007 Reef Foundation Salt Water Conditioners for Aquarium, 1kg
I gave this product a 4/5 however secondary to the difficult to use directions on dosing. The directions are very difficult to use as they are very "scientific"'. This seems to be common with many of the Red Sea products however. Otherwise, great product!!!It's a little bit difficult to know how to dose, but it's ok... I'm using it in partial water changes...

Aqueon Flex LED Aquarium Bubble Wand, 21-Inch, Blue
But like any hobby as long as your interest is there things tend to grow and change for the better. That said I've found one of the most inexpensive and creative way to make subtle to dramatic changes to most any tank is by using up lighting as the old saying goes "lighting is everything"
When Marineland came out with their LED wands I had them in many tanks in different numbers and colors, mostly the Lunar blue and white. The wands were just ok as they have a tendency to release and float to the top and the LED bulbs are quite dim.
Enter the Via aqua wands much better. They're weighted and have stronger suction cups so they stay put, the LED bulbs are brighter but the air tube is rather weak and thin and like the Marineland they clog easy.
When I came across these bendable Led air wands by Aqueon I could just imagine the possibilities, circles, half circles, quarter moon. Building multi layered air columns and so on. My hunch was right and these wands are sensational.
The build quality is the best yet so far the main tube is stronger so you can feel free to bend these into virtually any shape you like. The outflow is generous and creates a wall of bubbles in an even beautiful flow.
The main housing is a pliable rubber and each LED is incredibly bright, in fact a little too bright. It's easy too adjust this by adding a lamp dimmer if you want a nice range of adjustment to the brightness. I would say this applies really only to the white as the Lunar blue has a much more softer hue and is closer to a true Lunar blue as you would find with over head LED lighting systems that offer this feature.
Bending these around your tank decor adds tons of visual appeal as well as great extra oxygen via the increased aeration one of the best things you can do for your fish.
I'm running a bunch of these in different sized tanks from 55's to 125 and up and find them to be a wonderful addition to every single one of them. I think any hobbyist will love these.
5 Fins Up!I purchased 2 of these and they went in the same tank. They make great bubble wands but with 1 the lights stop working all together after 2 weeks. The other one lasted 3 weeks and the lights stopped working. Again, these make great bubble wands but if I just wanted a bubble wand I would have paid $9 bucks each and got just that.. a bubble wand. However, when they did work I loved them but for the money these cost and they last less than a month? No way not again.
Buy Aqueon Flex LED Aquarium Bubble Wand, 21-Inch, Blue Now
I am so happy with this purchase! I have put it in my 29 gallon aquarium and it provides a really nice stream of bubbles. The best part of course is the light. I got this because I wanted to have glow fish in my tank, and the blue LED light at night really makes them glow. It is gorgeous! It provides a nice ambient light that isn't distracting when we watch movies (fish tank is in our family room). I highly reccommend getting this prior to setting up your tank. I got mine after I had already put the gravel in and found it very difficult to get the suction cups situated.Read Best Reviews of Aqueon Flex LED Aquarium Bubble Wand, 21-Inch, Blue Here
So far so good. Looks great. Been in the aquarium for over a month with no problems. Very pretty night light, I leave it on 24/7. I hope it continues to work. I will edit this review If something changes over time. I am Leary of led products not always lasting for a long time.Want Aqueon Flex LED Aquarium Bubble Wand, 21-Inch, Blue Discount?
I spent a great deal of time deciding between this bubble wand and LED bubble wands of different brands. After reading many reviews, I settled on this one by Aqueon and couldn't be more happy.When I first received this bubbler, I took the water level down to about half and pushed my sand out of the way and suction cupped the bubbler to the bottom of my tank. This was somewhat difficult to do as my sand would get in the way, but I figure having more common gravel wouldn't be as problematic. This brings me to another difficulty in had, which isn't the fault of the product but rather my decision to go with sand rather than gravel. After burying my bubbler in sand, just up to the base of the LEDs, I was very satisfied with the look. However, after a day or two, the bubbles moved the sand enough to bury the LEDs.
After mounting the bubbler to the back of my tank just above the sand rather than in the sand, I haven't had a single problem. I have some rocks in front of the bubbler to hide the LEDs from view and haven't had any issue with sand covering the LEDs. I highly recommend this product.

The package contains two of the standard durable Nylabones. Another post states one of the two bones is the edible type, but that is not accurate as far as I can tell. Note these are the "giant" size, which are a good size for my 52-pound Lab mix and will last him a long while.Want Nylabone Dura Twin Pack Bacon and Chicken Chew Discount?
Got these about a month ago, and my black lab loves his. He's still working on the first one (bacon flavored), the edges are roughed up as expected and occasionally I find little pieces of the plastic around the floor, but he carries this thing everywhere. He's 60lbs of chewing puppy teeth and this is perfect for him. Anything that keeps him distracted from chewing other things in my house, like pillows, clothes, shoes, and towels.Only downside is when he decides to show mommy his toy a little too close and I get scratched (usually in the face or arm) with the bone, but that's to be expected.

This plastic water lily plant is alot larger than I anticipated. It stands all of 10 inches and is 5 inches wide at its largest width. The points are somewhat sharp and it is pretty stiff. The green leaves are not as sharp and are more flexible than the flowers. This ornament may turn out to be too big for my 10 gallon tank since I already have other things in there. The base is solid and heavy. This would be perfect for a bigger tank; it is very showy. It appears to be well made but has an annoying odor on it. This may or may not wash off as I haven't had a chance to clean it yet. The colors are deep and dark and very rich. Incidently, the longest stem could be cut off to make the ornament 7.5 inches high. This alteration would hardly be noticeable. This option may work better for me. The stems are plastic coated wire so you can bend them how you want them to go. All and all, I really like and would recommend it. Some really inexpensive pieces I have purchased are really not made well; this is well worth the price.Want Como Aquarium Fish Tank Plastic Water Lily Plant Decor Sky Blue Green 10" Discount?
I am impressed with Como products. I have now bought a few things from them and they all have been brightly colored, well made, easy to clean, and easy to place in the fish tank. Product looks just like the picture with a nice heavy base.
