Nutrafin Carbonate and General Hardness Test Kit for Aquarium

Nutrafin Carbonate and General Hardness Test Kit for AquariumIn setting up a new freshwater planted aquarium, I needed to know and track my water quality parameters closely to make sure everything is establishing correctly. I had a very old GH test from Aquarium Pharmaceuticals that no longer worked so I needed to replace it. I initially bought the Elos GH test kit thinking it would be a "win-win" -new test kit that uses non-toxic reagents. But it didn't work. Frustrated, I asked other people in an online aquarium forum which GH test kit they used. They recommended the Nutrafin kit. And guess what? THIS KIT WORKS. Bonus: It's easy to distinguish the color change that this kit uses; that isn't the case with many GH test kits (I'm looking at you, AP!). Definitely worth the money spent, because I now have a handle on how often I need to change my tank's water, and how much of my GH additive to use each time. Save yourself time and money: if you need a GH test kit, get this one.

I got this recently to test my KH/GH for my shrimp tanks. It was easy to use and understand. Would buy this again in the future.

Aquarius Aq360-6g Gloview 6-Gallon Aquarium Kit

Aquarius Aq360-6g Gloview 6-Gallon Aquarium KitI was so blinded by the excellent price ($38 and free shipping at the time) that I didn't really think things through. I bought this for my Betta, but now wish I had not. The tank is nice enough, but not really appropriate for the pet I have (that's my fault, I wasn't thinking)

Since the tank is skinny and very deep, you'll want very tall plants if you hope to near the top (the XL 18 inches will come close). Bettas like to sleep near the top, using a plant as a hammock, so I suction cupped one to the top not exactly the look I was going for.

For most fish, (esp. Bettas) a heater is a must add $15-20 to the price.

It comes with a tiny filter not great for a Betta because they don't care for moving water. Since its long and skinny, there is poor surface area on top. I had to turn the filter off so that his food doesn't blow around when i feed him. I finally just stopped using the filter, since Bettas need to be near the top of the tank to get some breaths of air.

And the 360 viewing experience? The curve of it obscures what i can view. I often can't find him if he stays along the sides.

Since the 6 gallon was only a few dollars more than the 3 gallon version, I figured I'd be crazy not to get it -it looks a bit lumbering. If i want to vacuum the gravel, I'll need to buy one of those giant ones like I used to have for my 75 gallon tank, since this tank is easily 24 inches high.

I'm going to do some research and see what else I can put in this tank and move my betta back to a gallon tank.

The night light feature is awesome you can choose blue, white or my fav, blue/white combo. if this is in a kids room for a night light, then neato, although I doubt the constant stimulation would be happy for your pet.

I hope some of these points can help you decide if this product fits your individual needs.

I wanted to give some feedback so those of you who are considering buying this product have a better idea what you are buying and what to expect.

Considering the size and whats included this aquarium worth the money. The highlight of this item is the lighting system. With 3 Different setting, the LED lights work very well and looks even better if you put this in a darker corner of your place.

Things to consider:

1-You will need a heater, so be ready to order one if you're buying this item. I went with Eheim Jager Heater 50W. It's working very well so far. Keeping it around 75F.

2The included filter is noisy and weak, I upgraded to Tetra Whisperer Bioscrubber 10i,3-10 gallon model.

3Your tank may arrive with some light scratches. Nothing to worry too much about though. Get a wet and soft picese of cloth and try to buff it out. Once the tank is full you will not notice it much. Just leave the scratched part to face the wall.

4-When feeding the fish, initially let the Whisperer shoot the food to the bottom and then turn off the filter temporarily while your babies hunt for the food. Then turn the filter back on, otherwise most of the chow will end up in the filter and clog it up.

5-I have noticed that cylinder tanks do not offer the best viewing experience for the fish, but if you want a tank around this size this is a good choice and over all I am pleased with the tank.

I started with couple of tigerbarbs and couple of sunburst wag. The sunwags are amazingly fast and crate nice chase scenes.

I read all of the reviews and purchased this tank based on my need for a taller tank with a small footprint. I like the look of it and it does fit my space well but I agree with the previous reviewers about it being difficult to see or even find my betta with the curved design of the tank. As well, I feel the light is inadequate. If you have glow fish then the blue light or blue/white combination is fine. I prefer the white only look and it is very dim compared to our other tank. This is the most disappointing since there is no way to replace it since the light is made specifically for the lid. overall it is a nice looking tank and we are keeping it, I wish the light were brighter though.

When I first saw this kit,I was like "Cute." I've read about the included filter and a bunch of other "better" filters.I've read about the fact that it's acrylic instead of glass.(huh?)

To all the naysayers,I say...I like it.No,it's not a 55 gallon tank outfit with a canister filter but if that's what you want go for it.

Yes,I'm sure there are better acrylic/plastic tanks out there,but my fish a/k/a "The Rat Pack" like it.

When you add your own gravel,plants,aquarium decor (and fish!),it looks and works pretty good.

Overall,I am VERY satisfied.

P.S. : The blue light setting at the top brings it all home.

Just set up the Glofish Tank a few days ago, we have two Glofish so far. I really like the 3 different lighting options to tell you the truth the Glofish look great under all 3 different options. The filter is pretty nice, but it is awkwardly attached to the tank maybe we set it up wrong or something, but as for filtering the water it is doing a great job of that so far. The hood is very nice I like that there is a feeding hole, so it is very easy to feed the fish, and the hood keeps in all the condensation from the tank so that is a plus. As for the tank it's self it is pretty nice, I don't see anything wrong with it, and it is very light which is always a plus. But, one thing to remember is this doesn't come with a heater, which I would highly recommend getting in order for Glofish to survive, and they are about $20 give or take a little.

Pros:

-3 Different Lighting Settings

-Good Working Filter

-Hood All Around Is Great

-Tank Light and Good Quality

Cons:

-No Heater

-Filter Is Awkwardly Hanging to Tank

-Hard to View Fish at Times (Since the Tank is Cylinder Shaped)

-Light Stopped Working After 3 Weeks

This is a great tank which for it's price and quality is the Glofish tank I would recommend to anyone wanting to set up a new Glofish tank.

Air-Pod Aquarium up to 30 Gallons Air Pump

Air-Pod Aquarium up to 30 Gallons Air PumpI bought this airpump to use with my 10gallon quarantine/hospital tank and can honestly say it's super quiet. So quiet in fact that I can only hear the pump when my ear is about 3-5 inches from the unit. The unit is also extremely powerful. I have it connected to a Airtech Gang Valve 4 outlets running 2 separate lines. One connected to a 1" airstone and the second connected to a 12" bubble bar and with the gang valve fully open it's a hurricane inside the aquarium. Of course by adjusting the gang valve I can get the exact flow I want. Nice design, quiet and powerful. What more can you ask for in an aquarium airpump (NADA)? I would definitely recommend this pump to anyone wanting silent and powerful operation.

I bought this air pump that is labeled for use with up to 30 gallon tanks. I have a 10 gallon and this pump does not have enough air pressure to run a 5" bubble stone! It is quiet--maybe because it is doing so little!!!

Marineland Penguin Power Filter Replacement Bio-Wheel

Marineland Penguin Power Filter Replacement Bio-WheelFor the rare occasion that your Bio-Wheel gets damaged (they don't ever need replacing if they are in working condition), this replacement filter wheel is top-notch. I picked one up a few weeks ago because I downgraded to a smaller fish tank with a filter that required a Bio-Wheel that I didn't have anymore. The wheel works in the Penguin 99B filter, as well as the Marineland/Aqua-Tech Hex 5, and the Eclipse system 5 hex tank. Very versatile bio-wheel that fits most small tank filter assemblies. Also, the seller (OzBo) was great, and had super fast shipping.

wasted my money. wrong size but didn't know until package was opened, and then it is unreturnable so a complete waste.

The bio works great and they last a very long time or forever if you move just put the wheel in a glass of the tank water. i didnt know this when i moved and i just threw it away thinking i could find a new one at a pet store. i was so wrong i look at big and smal pet stores and none of them had it. the shipping will cost more then the product tho! but 8 bucks and with how ling it last it is worth it.

Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 36-Inch

Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 36-InchFrom the description and pictures, I wasn't 100% certain what to expect. When it arrived, I thought the box was empty it was so light. Unfortunately, the box was not sealed well and the contents had come out of it, but the light worked well none the less. I was previously using a standard T-5 bulb light fixture, until the ballast broke and needed replacing. I was going to get the same one until I saw this one. I loved the idea of having something that didn't heat up as much as my previous ballast, was lighter, and had an evening setting. I was expecting some form of Christmas lights or mini bulbs in the ballast, but it's not (I really can't explain how the light works).

My fish tank hangs on the wall like a picture frame, so it is has vertical depth (more than 2-ft) and yet it is skinny, with only 4" of width available for a light. This one fit beautifully and lights up the tank very well.

My husband recognized the ballast and immediately got excited. He saw it on TV for "new inventions" and this was considered new technology. The white light is almost blinding compared to the old T-5. Even the blue lights make the tank glow bright blue. The fish seem happy with it.

The only unfortunate thing about this technology is that when the lights fail, you have to replace the whole ballast. I just hope it has a good life expectancy in the end. Until then, I'm pretty happy.

Just received this as a replacement for my old fluorescent tube light. It's slightly brighter and whiter than my old light, but looks nice. I am hoping it quickly replenishes my algae growth for my two hungry plecostomi. The moon light function is pretty much useless by itself, but adds a little richer color to the full on mode. The moon light is simply a few blue leds. It looks nice, but not natural. Good for a bar area setup. Giving it 5 stars for quality, aesthetics and value.

I like this light for reefs on a budget reason its not great is there is no shimmer effect in my 40 gallon salt water breeder & there is a dead spot in the middle showing with the moonlight (only)on as there are 2 seprate panels that meet in the middle its brightness is perefect put it could use 4 more blue leds with the white leds on for just a slight difference in daytime color BUT ill keep it just for the fact its slighty cheaper than buying 2-36" flurorecent ballasts & bulbs

I bought this LED light to replace my fresh water tank T5's and so far the lumens are nice. The build quality is good...and the only bad thing I have to say about this light is the following:

1) LED's have no individual lens, so the light output is sorta spread out a bit.

2) No separate power cord for the blue and the white light. There is separate switch but same cord, so it is impossible to put them on a timer.

Lee's 20L/29/26S Original Undergravel Filter, 12-Inch by 30-Inch or 10-Inch by 36-Inch

Lee's 20L/29/26S Original Undergravel Filter, 12-Inch by 30-Inch or 10-Inch by 36-InchI've had fish tanks for over 25 years, except for the past 6 years. For Christmas I purchase a new 37 gallon tank. I have always used an undergravel filter as a second filter with my other tanks in the past. I have never had a problem with maintenance or anything. I purchase this filter, but when I assembled it the flow tubes were way to short for my new tank. "No problem," I thought, I'll just pick up some tube and cut it to the link I need. After all, I've done this before. I went to 4 pet stores (1 being an aquarium store), plus looked online, with no luck finding more tubes. I was told that undergravel filters are outdated and almost never used anymore. So I can not use the filter. I sold it on Ebay and because it was a great price on Amazon, I made my money back.

The filter was good, easy to assemble. It probably would have been a good filter if I could have used it.

AA Aquarium Spare Bulb UV9W

AA Aquarium Spare Bulb UV9WReplacement bulb doesn't Last 6000 hours (about 8 1/3 mo.) as stated in the Green Killing Machine 9 watt Internal UV Sterilizer with Power Head Lasts only 3 to 6 mo. As stated on box and on the manufacturer's website at "This is not a disposable unit, UV lamps have a life span of 3 to 6 months in constant use. However, it is only suggested for use with green water and unit shall be switched off if water is clear." It also says: "UV radiation at a wavelength of 254mn making the unit extremely effective in controlling bacteria, yeast, moulds and other pathogens." While it does clear up green water, I thought it helped prevent disease. If the mfr. says that it can be shut off when the water is clear, then it only "..is effective in controlling bacteria, yeast, molds, and other pathogens, in turn (as it relates to) controlling algae growth."

All promotional material says: "Prices for these replacement bulbs are very affordable." This is misleading to me, since the yearly cost of running the UV bulb 24/7, and if it lasts only 3 months, can be about $90. I got my replacement bulb from The Umbrella Group who is a very reputable reseller, but I think they may have originally gotten some incorrect info from the mfr?

I have had the Green Killing Machine for over a year now (in a salt and fresh tank) and I love it! I originally bought it for my 36 gallon fresh tank when it was going through a horrible case of algae bloom. It had that thing clean in 7 days (it was a TON of algae) even after chemicals and 0 light for a week couldn't do it. I have since used it in my 36 gallon salt water tank it works great!

The only thing I don't care for about it is the odd/awkward/ugly design... but if that is what it takes to make it work.. *shrug*

On the replacement bulb specifically it comes as one plug and play unit, no need to take the old case apart and reseal. Worked great!

I bought two of these for my two Discus tanks from my local shop.The original bulbs lasted about 4 months.My local shop did not have the replacements,so I came to AMAZON.COM.All is good so far right? I started to see that these are hard to find so I purchased four replacement bulbs for $133.00 ( i believe I had the bigger model,forget the size) The first bulb lasted 2 weeks,the second 1 week,the third did not work at all and the fourth lasted 2 weeks.And no,I did not replace them incorrectly.Please note that this is a great product WHEN it works.My best advice is to keep up on your water tests and water changes.And remember,if i'm taking the time to write this,there are MANY more people who are just disgusted and trashed this unit ,and called it quits without saying a word.I hope this company goes out of business.

I bought the Green Machine and knew right away it was working great. Then it stopped working so I bought this replacement bulb. Well, it's been over two months and I'm stumped as to whether it's working or not. My water is still cloudy (off and on) and the blue filters don't seem to be catching anything. There is no indicator light (at least on mine) that I can see that shows me whether the device is working and frankly, I can't even decide if I like it. I'm kind of bummed because I was looking forward to this doing as great a job as the original part did, but again, I just can't tell. I'd hate to have to shell out for a whole other UV machine, but frankly, I'd rather do that then keep paying money for a unit I don't even know is working!

Want AA Aquarium Spare Bulb UV9W Discount?

I bought this unit at the local pet store. I needed algae control in an outdoor top-less 45 g fancy goldfish tank (in FL). It was the cheapest one I could find. It did clear my water, but seems much less effective now, 9 months later. Flow rate is very low, but I guess a low flow rate helps this weak 9 W unit to be effective.

I have not been able to get the light unit apart to inspect the bulb and chamber, so a replacement bulb might be kind of moot. It looks like a lot of people have not had good luck with replacement bulbs, so I am going to consider this a disposable unit that is dead.

One thing I have noticed with replacing UV bulbs in other units (Coral Life TurboTwist and Custom units), is that you do need to be very careful not to touch the bulb itself with your fingers. Something about the oils from your fingers damaging the bulb coating. All of the replacement bulbs have warnings about this. I did not take this seriously at first, but find that I get MUCH better replacement bulb life if I am super-careful and do not handle the bulb directly.

Hagen Nutrafin Max Goldfish Sinking Pellet, 18.69-Ounce

Hagen Nutrafin Max Goldfish Sinking Pellet, 18.69-Ounce:( My goldfish refuse to eat the 'peasant food'(Flakes) now. I have a fancy gold with chronic swim bladder problems, these pellets are perfect for her and she adores them!

Who knew that goldfish could be picky? My nothing-special, pet-store variety goldfish that live in my garden pond don't like this food at all. Also, pellets are fairly large, which might or might not have anything to do with this. This is not a comment on the seller, who was fine.

When I received my order the fish food was not sealed and the cap had been opened. I call Amazon and they promptly replaced this product. I could not believe how fast they sent a replacement. I got it the next day. The product is great. My fish are eager to eat it. The pellets are the perfect size, not too big and not too small.

Read Best Reviews of Hagen Nutrafin Max Goldfish Sinking Pellet, 18.69-Ounce Here

Nothing wrong with yellow fish unless you want them to stay their non-yellow colors. I have 5 tanks and I used this food in 2 of them for the last 5 months or so. My beautiful brown, white, jet black and calico goldfish slowly turned SOLID YELLOW while eating this stuff! My red goldfish and any red or yellow on my koi turned orange. I stopped feeding this food 2 weeks ago and a few of my fish (not all of them) are very slowly regaining their colors. (The new calico goldfish I put in there has stayed a calico on Wardley Essentials Goldfish Premium Flakes 1.95 Ounce This is the food I originally had all my goldfish on to prevent swim bladder and make it sink, I feed this by putting some in a net and keeping it underwater for about 20 seconds.)

Apparently this Nutrafin food has yellow color enhancers. So unless you want ALL your goldfish to turn yellow or orange, do not feed! I use the same water to fill all my tanks, same water chemistry etc., and the only fish that turned colors like this were the ones on this food. So this is definitely the problem! I'm giving this product 2 stars because now I have 2 tanks FULL of yellow or orange fish: How exciting is that?

This food also keeps a bit of a cloud in the water, and I've experienced some stubborn black spot algae in the tanks I use this in. Not sure if this is the problem behind the black spot algae but it hasn't grown in my other tanks.

Overall, I just can't recommend this stuff.

Want Hagen Nutrafin Max Goldfish Sinking Pellet, 18.69-Ounce Discount?

First off my fish did not take to this food fast despite having been on a pellet diet for over a year. Eventually after about 3 or 4 days they reluctantly began to eat it. I made a concerted effort to watch my fish (a huge Comet that I bought as a feeder fish and just kept!,and 3 Large Black Moors) eat so that I wouldn't over feed them because after the first feeding and them not eating it my 40 gallon tank was so dirty! A few pellets left uneaten will cloud the water almost instantly. The pellets are orangeish which makes the water so dirty. I switched to this food because I'm a prime member and wanted the free shipping! but sadly I'm going to have to go back to the more expensive all around OSI pellets which my fish love.

I hate leaving bad reviews but man has this food has made my aquarium maintenance exponentially more time consuming and all around unpleasant!

Instant Ocean-Aquarium Systems AIOSG31 Seagarden Caulerpa Verticellata Aquarium Decorative Plant, M

Instant Ocean-Aquarium Systems AIOSG31 Seagarden Caulerpa Verticellata Aquarium Decorative Plant, MediumThis is one of the prettiest plants I have for my fish tank and I have been washing it in oxyclean and reusing it for over 5 years. The only thing at all wrong with it is the little leave "pods" can come off their plastic "branches" but they snap back on. I love this plant and have been looking for it to replace the one I have since over time mine has lost a few of the leaves (down the drain when cleaning, etc.) But it does really lend a nice look to the tank and its great for the fish to hide in as it stays near the floor of the tank. We have used it in 50 gallon tanks and currently a 10 gallon tank, and I love it. One of my favorites.

Product title does not match description. Who knows what you will get. I wouldn't take the risk of ordering this one.

Laguna PowerGlo LED Mini Pond Light Kit with 2-Pack 40-Bulb LED Lights

Laguna PowerGlo LED Mini Pond Light Kit with 2-Pack 40-Bulb LED LightsUse this for my fountain in the front yard. It really lights it up nice, the photo cell works well, comes on at dusk and off at dawn. Lots of cord too.

Lights are fine but hooked to a timer (not included) because after the third night of activation, the unit failed.

Light are working OK and doing what was described.

When I called the vendor, I was told to put everything back into its original box and they would repair or replace.

I spent several hours installing/threading wires from the outlet to the transformer on to the lights (cosmetic purist)

did not want to go through the same routine in reverse and then reinstall the new/repaired unit once returned to me.

Since the customer service tech seemed not to accept that I simply return the detachable ON/Off Light sensor unit

"because policy is that the lights must be returned in the package theycame in" and that was that; I insisted on speaking

to her supervisor, who seemed emminently more reasonable and said she woul try to find a replacement Light Sensor.

All that transpired two weeks ago, and I'm still without the sensor.

Moral of the story: Only buy this Pond Light Kit if you can use it without the ON/OFF dusk to dawn feature. Most lower

end sensors, if they fail will do so within days of first use, if that works in your intended application, then go for it.

These were a real find! They come with two submersible lights with a daylight sensor (on at dusk off at dawn) and a long cord. The lighting is bright but not over-powering. Perfect mood lighting in a mid-size fountain. They sit on the bottom without any need to mount or clip them. By day they are inconspicuous and unobtrusive. A great product.

Aussie Aquariums Wall Mounted Aquarium - Skyline Black

Aussie Aquariums Wall Mounted Aquarium - Skyline Black*I am in discussions with the seller. So far they are being helpful and seem genuine about their desire to work this out to where I'm happy with what I've got, which is very much appreciated. I'll keep this updated regarding the result.*

I have rated very few things, but I felt people deserved to know more about this product.

I did a lot of comparison shopping and research, this being my first "real" fish tank. Given the small amount of technical data presented, I was comparing this against other 10-15 gallon tanks based on the 35x5x16 measurements. Here are the problems I've had with it.

* It's NOT the black I ordered, but blue. I thought maybe it was just me, or the light, but no, it's very clearly blue. Blue is not even LISTED as a color option.

*There are no measurements that equal 35X16x5. That would equal (2,800 c/inches), 12 gallons if it were full. The INSIDE tank measurements are 31.375x12.25x3.125. This is only 1,201 c/inches, a mere FIVE gallons!!! The total outside the wide frame measurements are 35.5x17.5x4.375, but this is MUCH bigger than the actual tank.

Unfortunately, this showed up (well packaged and quickly) the day before my daughter's birthday so we were in a hurry to get it up and running and didn't realize the problems until it was already mounted. Some other things to note, but aren't necessarily "problems."

The light is an unshielded under cabinet light. It will shine as much light up the wall as into the tank. It is not compatible with full spectrum lights if you wish to have live plants.

There is no "lid" per say, just a piece of glass that rests on top that you have to set aside when accessing tank. Haven't broken it yet, but I'm guessing it's just a matter of time.

With only a 3 1/8 interior depth, it is VERY narrow, most rocks/decor won't fit inside. There are large blind spots on the side hidden by the frame where fish/animals like to hide.

No heater is included. The filter seems OK but is a bit loud. The vacuum is easy to use and helpful. Kids could have easy access to all lighted on/off switches on the bottom. The metal face scratches and dents fairly easily. The instruction manual is generic for many tanks and is a bit vague on details.

Over all, if you want a small tank to hold no more than 5 total inches of fish, it's not bad. However it is NOT worth the $700+ "compare at price" in my opinion and it is NOT necessarily the size or color shown. Beware!

Aussie Aquariums Wall Mounted Aquarium is very classy. I received mine broke and received a partial refund. I fixed it and had to pay almost a hundreds bucks. Still worth it.
