My little sister lives spongebob and now im getting her a fish tank for christmas with bikini bottom being the decor. Sooooo cute!! She will love it.Want SpongeBob SquarePants® Bikini Bottom® Aquarium Decorating Kit Discount?
the set is great. comes with a lot of neat stuff. the background is way too big for my 10 gal. tank, so I had to cut it waay down and it doesnt look so great now. and its just paper so dont let it get wet!! also one plant kept breaking off pieces when i was planting it in the gravel. but besides the minor issues the ceramic decor was great, my son will absolutely love it when he sees it!! i reccomend it for spongebob obsessed kids and their parents who like to see them happy!!Monday, September 1, 2014

Marina Naturals Foreground, Rock and Plants
After two cleanings, there is hardly any foliage left on either decoration only the 'rock' and a clear gummy substance where the faux moss used to be. I would only recommend purchasing this product if you expect never to have to clean it. Extremely disappointed.I have this rock placed in a 2.7 gal tank in the corner below the heater. It looks nice, although the plastic is a bit rigid and I worry about it harming my betta, he doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all. It's not as large as it looks as the photo, which I was happy about as my tank isn't that big. I washed it with hot water before adding it into the tank and one of the plant pieces fell off, not a big deal. I wasn't being too careful with handling it.
Overall nice tank decoration.

Marina Easy Clean Water Changer
Other than that a decent product.Very useful tool for the aquarium enthusiast. Easy hookup to my kitchen sink. I tried it on my 10 gallon tank to test it. It works great but I wouldn't recommend it for small tanks. It sucked out water at a very high rate even after adjusting the flow. I don't know what tank size minimum is best but I bought it primarily to use on my new 55 gallon tank and the rate issue is not a problem. The only thing with larger tanks is obviously it takes longer so be wary of your water bill. In the future I think I'll get some kind of system with an electric pump to save on water usage.

I have a 55 gallon tank and water changes can be trying. This products help a great deal but it is not very effective with the faucet hook up. The adapter that came with it dose not fit MY faucet, although it may fit yours, and the water usage is not at all practical. I have found using it as a siphoning system works just as well (if not better) and is a lot more practical. The length of the hose is great for draining the water right into the sink. Filling the tank straight from the faucet is by far the best part. It's worth the money just for that, but adding water with fish in the tank worries me because of the chlorine in our water so I won't do that. I'd recommend it to anyone with a large tank if you have a small tank, anything under 35 gal, it may not be what your looking for.Read Best Reviews of Marina Easy Clean Water Changer Here
This works well to empty and refill tanks. I have four tanks and this makes water changes go by really fast.Tip: When pulling water from tanks, you can get the suction going and then shut the water off at the sink so that you don' waste water and it will siphon out on its own.
I have also owned the python system and I would say that they are the same. I am glad that I purchased the Marina version again and saved some money for something else.We have been using our 25 foot hose for over a year, and unable to buy another faucet coupling, we bought a 50 foot unit too. We have 13 aquariums ranging from a ten gallon to 80 and 90 gallons and raise angelfish so we do a lot of water changing. Using the hoses attached to our kitchen and bathroom faucets, we can change 20% of water in all our tanks in 1 1/2 hours. We do this every week, and daily in our fry tanks, and would be facing a lot more obstacles if we didn't have these water changer hoses. We were lucky to have started with the Marina Aquavacs because of their brass couplings. I think the plastic would not last so long.

EcoPlus 4 Air Pump, 4 Outlet
Cons:
You can't turn off the fourth valve so I just added it to a bucket
It's kind of noisy, can still hear it through a closed closet doorI have four fish tanks of 200 gallons each and I use this as way to get oxygen to all four tanks. Sunfish and tilapia seem happy.

Marina C10 Compact Heater
I would definitely buy another without hesitation.I bought the Marina C25 compact heater about 2 weeks ago. I was worried about purchasing this because of the bad reviews, but I decided to go for it because it was on sale at my local fish store. This heater looks EXACTLY like the Fluval Compact Heater 25watt. The heater is thin, and not at all bulky like it is made to appear in the photo. This heats my Fluval Edge 6 Gallon perfectly! The temperature is a constant 76-78 degrees. I had to remove my thermometer just to make sure it was working (it was) because I never saw fluctuations in temperature.
The directions do say that you should submerge the heater into the tank and leave in there (unplugged) for about 10 min. I left it in for an hour before plugging it in. I was worried about fully submersing the entire thing into the water (even the part where the cord comes into the heater), but IT IS OK to do that. I had to research it on a different site to make sure I wasn't going to get electrocuted. The heater needs to be underwater at all times. This heater is awesome, and I definitely recommend this product.

This heater stablized the 2 gallon tank quickly and maintains at 77-78. Does not overheat even a very small tank.I have had this heater about 8 months now in my Bettas 5 gallon hex and it has never given me an issue my Betta is very healthy and happy and this keeps my tank a constant temp ... the only thing I don't like is it isn't adjustablehas been keeping my betta and snails cozy for over a month now, great item for small tank. ok with my live plants too.Wednesday, January 15, 2014

Tetra AquaSafe Water Conditioner with BioExtract
Here's the thing, these water conditioners that have "slime coat" crap in them, the way they work is by BURNING the fish, the irritation induces them to produce their slime coat. I wasn't aware of this, but when I was using it, I noticed that some of my fish would always flash swim rapidly up and down the glass I didn't know if it was them being "excited" to have a water change, no, they were just in pain/stressed.
Anyway, after coming to the end of my bottle in like 1 month's time, I ordered Seachem Safe (powder version of Prime). My fish no longer flash, and it works better, way more cost efficient. Save your money, buy Safe or Prime, both are way better.

Whenever you add new tap water to your aquarium the chemistry of the water changes, these changes can be very harmful to the fish depending on how drastic they are. So it's recommended you do a 10-20% water change every week to your aquarium to help reduce chemicals like ammonia and dilute the nitrites etc. But the tap water also carries harmful chlorine and chloramine.Tetra AquaSafe removes both and enhances the stress coat produced by your fish, thus making it perfect to condition your aquarium. I've had no problems whatsoever with it, and it has greatly improved the overall health of my fish.
I personally don't use it with every water change (although its recommended that you do) but that's usually based on the amt being added and the condition of my tap water.
Use 5ml to treat 10gal

The first, and only water conditioner I have ever used for my betta. Spike is now 3yrs old, and continues to thrive. I attribute that in part to AquaSafe water conditioner.Want Tetra AquaSafe Water Conditioner with BioExtract Discount?
Previous reviews were helpful. I use it everytime I change the water. The water stays clean for about two weeks easily. It says aquarium for fish but I have been using it for my turtle aquarium and it has worked out fine. The filmy residue does appear but just make sure not to use in excess and it should not be an issue. Also, if you are using this for turtles, frequent baths also help to remove the film from the shell.Wednesday, August 28, 2013

Does what it has to do and seems like it works just great. It is now my back up heater, sine the old one started to work again.Read Best Reviews of Catalina Titanium Heater 300 Watt Here
This heater works great in my 55-gallon marine tank. It didn't take long to heat my tank and it is pretty accurate. I will only buy titanium heaters after almost being electrocuted by a cracked glass heater (for some reason the GFI didn't trip).It would be nice if the power cord for this heater was a foot longer and also the directions state that the heater is only to be mounted horizontally, I would prefer the option of mounting it vertically also but this is not a big deal.I have been so happy with this heater that I've bought 3 and considering a fourth. After having a standard plastic submersible heater crack leading to electrical shocking of my 2 turtles I needed a replacement. Using a quick fix with some old glass heaters turned out to be a bad idea as those shattered either during water changes or by my rambunctious turtles. This heater has been a great solution and definitely worth it. I would recommend it. I haven't noticed any problems thus far.

K&H Rubber Thermo-Hose Ice Free Water Hose
After talking with K&H about my application, they confirmed the description and other feedback. The ends are not heated so they will also need to be wrapped or protected from cold. I chose to wrap them in foam and didn't worry about heating them seems to have worked for my application. We'll see how well this works over time.
As for staying warm, it was enough to melt the snow that I dropped it onto and when I woke it was on solid ground, and the water was still free-flowing, which is exactly what I would have expected.
As an added bonus, K&H did answer their phone right away when I called them and Amazon delivered 2nd day as promised.The Hose worked great in cold weather, but it dried & cracked in less than 6 months from exposure to the sunny weather. The ice didn't get it but the sun did. I was hoping to leave it in use year round and only unplug the heater during the warmer months. Now it makes a good sprinkler hose. For the price I was expecting it to last at least 3-4 winters.

This water hose has been an absolute life saver!!! We were having to disconnect our waterhose on very cold nights. We purchased this water hose and used it all winter long. The only issue I have with it is that the water has a rubber taste to it. So it is not good for drinking, but great for everything else!Bought hose for use with my r.v. for cold weather camping/living. After 1 month of use had no problems at all water keep flowing.Wednesday, July 3, 2013
Spio III CO2 Diffuser - Glass Reactor for Aquarium Plants
Biggest complaint I had was that it did not come with a suction cup....... How am I supposed to attach it to the tank? Stuff it into the substrate? Luckily I had a suction cup laying around the house that was close enough in size to work but is not really my permanent solution. Now I have to find a place to order custom suction cups or find another route. I'm glad I had something close enough laying around.

This diffuser creates a very fine co2 flow, no issues so far, although when I received it there was a good sized chip in the glass just above the ceramic diffuser disk, I took a chance at not wasting a week or two in returning based on the overall cost. I was happy to see that once pressure was applied that it did not crack the glass, would be 5 stars if not for the chipped glass.Read Best Reviews of Spio III CO2 Diffuser - Glass Reactor for Aquarium Plants Here

Received this in once piece, however the unit leaked where the spiral meets the inside of the cup. There are also leaks around the diffuser disc, causing some pretty large bubbles. This seems to be a cheap Chinese knock-off. I'm pretty disappointed.
