Coralife 05496 Actinic Straight Pin Compact Fluorescent Lamp, 65-Watt

Similar to the previous customer's review, my bulb replacement arrived broken as well. The package contained no bubble wrap and had one small (very small) piece of newspaper in the box which served no purpose given the larger size of the container. The bulb arrived in millions of pieces...literally. Extremely disappointed!

Worst purchase on Amazon ever. (among many) I was sent a broken bulb the 1st time. The replacement was a 10,000 daylight (about as different from the product I ordered as possible) but because I was already frustrated I decided to keep it because it was a good deal. Unfortunately, it was broken as well. I did go ahead and buy one from my local pet store to make sure my ballast was working correctly. It is.

Oceanic 36016 BioCube Aquarium Stand

Let me first say that I worked at an aquarium store for 3 years during college. I've seen many different types of stand build by all different types of manufacturers. This stand is top notch. I sold well over 100 of these step-up's and except for the occasional split seam on an aquarium, I never saw any issues, and never have a seen a stand fail.

One reviewer (the only other reviewer at the time of posting) said this stand was cheap and would likely "fall over" if hit by a child or dog. I would greatly beg to differ.

The stand is made from fiberboard not to cut costs, but rather to increase waterproofing and stability. It's much easier for companies to treat a wood pulp and then press it into boards than it is to treat natural wood. The polyurethane coating on the fiber board is also very scratch resistant and adds an additional dimension of waterproofing should something spill during something like a tank cleaning. On the stability front, it's INCREDIBLY dense, which makes for the perfect medium to support such a heavy tank.

Assembly was easy and took about 20 minutes all together. DON'T OVER TIGHTEN THE BOLTS! Tighter bolts do not equal a stronger stand. The finished stand was very sturdy and looked very sharp. Keep in mind, that there may be a SLIGHT shift in the boards when moving them side to side without the tank on it. Don't be alarmed, it's meant to be this way. The stand relies on the weight of the tank to stabilize the stand, it was engineered this way. I promise Ocean knows what they're doing.

Total bomb this is a disaster. If you have young ones or a big dog, forget about this stand. If a toddler pushes on side of the stand, it is going over along with 29 gallons of water. Ditto for your 30 pound dog that crashes in to it. I'm flying solo so I Gorilla glued and clamped this thing and hoping for the best. Had I been more patient, I would have bought a real deal stand.

Why a company would build and recommend this for a 250 pound anything is irresponsible.

This thing is made from particle board which is very weak for lack of a better word. Had it been designed with some bracing, it might be marginal at best to support significant weight.

I got the 29 gallon version and put it together myself. It's exactly what I wanted, extremely sturdy, looks good, and it's waterproof. Not flimsy at all. I have a Fluval Edge 12 gallon aquarium, but I got this larger stand because I wanted the extra storage capacity. With this I can keep ALL my aquarium supplies (including a large bucket) stored out of sight underneath in my living room. I'm glad I got it.

I ordered this then I read some reviews lol I know backwards. Well anyways I was a bit worried because people where saying flimsy and could tip over. I was extra carful when building to not bend anything and my unit is so solid no worries this will ever fall or tip. My large dog could put her paws up on the tank. I would be mad but it won't fall over cause of it. The directions r a little vague but still easy to figure out. Over all I would buy it again.

I was excited to receive this item. Once I received it, immediately when I took it out of the box I noticed scratched and chips in the finish. Upon assembly the item practically crumbled apart. It is made out of super cheep material, The kind of material Walmart uses to make their cheep brand particle board coffee tables. Which I feel I would have been better off getting. Amazon was very helpful though in making my return easy and refunded me all of my money. Not a product i would recommend to anyone though.

Fluval 88g-CO2 Bubble Counter - 3.1 Ounces

I have been keeping planted tanks for a long time. I recently set up a DIY CO2 generator for my tank and had used Fluval's diffuser in the past in a similar setup. I ordered another for my latest planted tank and the bubble counter for ease of use.

You do not need to have commercial tanks of CO2, a fancy regulator, or an expensive setup in order to have lush CO2-assisted growth. I use an old Gatorade bottle, some black airline tubing, Fluval's diffuser, and this bubble counter. I wasn't going to get a bubble counter but it was so cheap on Amazon that I went ahead and ordered it, and I am glad that I did! It provides another piece of equipment that prevents the tank from leaking back out the tubing onto the floor and allows you to see if your generator is still producing gas.

For a DIY CO2 generator:

1. Gatorade or other thick plastic bottle. Many people recommend 2-Liters. I think these are too big.

2. Fleischmann's Active Yeast, or some other baker's yeast. Not the Fast Rise kind

3. Airline tubing. CO2 tubing is really expensive and since you are generating your own CO2 for pennies, don't worry too much about gas escaping.

4. Check valve. Very important.

5. Plastic inline connectors for tubing

6. Bubble Counter

7. Diffuser

8. Silicone (if needed)

Drill hole in lid of plastic bottle. Affix plastic inline connector INSIDE the bottle with one side pointing down into the bottle and the other pointing up out of the lid. (if necessary, you can use silicone to get an airtight seal) Attach a small length of airline tubing inside the bottle. This length should be short enough that it will not dip into the Yeast and sugar mixture in the bottle. Affix another piece of airline tubing to the connector poking out of the lid. This goes to the bubble counter. Place the check valve between the counter and the diffuser.

The bubble counter will allow you to count Bubbles Per Second for your tank. (Various plants require different levels of CO2 in the water and are almost always measured in this BPS count.) It should have about an inch of water in it and be attached to the exterior of the tank. As gas is pushed into the counter, you will see a bubble form from the stem inside. It will pop and the gas will float to the airspace above the water level, and after enough pressure is built up, will begin pushing gas into the tank via the diffuser.

For this bubble counter, make sure that the intake and output valves are screwed as tightly as possible. I found a gas leak on the intake because I didn't have the tubing pushed down far enough on the stem.

The diffuser should go in the tank in a location that will provide for the maximum transfer of CO2 gas with the water. In my tank, I have attached it directly underneath the intake for my Fluval 305 filter. The CO2 goes into the filter, slowing through the media for a longer time of gas exchange, then hits the impeller as it is pushed back into the tank. You do not want to put the diffuser near the surface or around an airstone. In fact, you don't want to use an airstone for oxygen in the tank during your photoperiod. Oxygen bubblers cause CO2 to not be in the tank long enough to have a good gas exchange. (I use an air pump at night to make sure that oxygen levels to not drop dangerously while the lights are off and photosynthesis has stopped for the day. I turn off the pump about an hour before the lights to come on to allow CO2 to build back up in the tank and be readily available to the plants when the lights come back on) If you do not wish to have your CO2 go through your filter, put it in an area as close to the bottom of the tank as possible, with as little water movement as possible. You can hide the diffuser anywhere if you are using a bubble counter because you will still be able to tell if the generator is producing gas by looking at the bubble counter.

In the bottle, mix warm water with sugar, swirl it around until the sugar dissolves, then add the baker's yeast. The amount of sugar and yeast that you use will determine how long the generator stays charged. I have had bottles last two weeks, and I have had bottles last two days. Basically, you want there to be enough sugar to feed the yeast as it reproduces. More sugar means longer CO2 production. Keep in mind that a whole packet of yeast will be waaaaaaaaaaaay too much and may cause your bottle to burst.

After putting the lid with its attached line back on the bottle, walk away. It takes time for the yeast to produce enough gas to provide sufficient pressure. You will be tempted to open it. Don't. If after three hours there are still no bubbles coming through the diffuser, one of four things has happened:

1. You have a leak in your system (fruit flies and/or the smell of rising bread will tell you this)

2. You did not use enough yeast, your yeast was not active, or your water was too cold

3. You are impatient and still need to wait

4. You have water in your system and you will have to wait for internal pressure inside your bottle to overcome the water pressure from your tank (this is why I recommend the check valve)

I love this thing. For the life of me, I just could not get my DIY bubble counter to completely seal. No matter what I did, it will spring a tiny little leak somewhere, thus preventing the necessary build-up of pressure. For the 5 bucks you'll spend on one this product, it's a no-brainer. It is way more attractive then an old jelly jar, bottle, or whatever you would plan to use as a bubble counter, it can adhere to the side of your tank with a clip or a suction-cup (both provided), and the aggravation you'll save yourself by not having to drill holes in a jar and seal it off with tons of silicon would alone make this product worth the money. It's small and can easily be tucked out of the way.

My setup:

DIY Co2

-2x 1 liter bottles

-Fluval Bubble Counter

-Feeding into a powerhead for diffusion

-1 teaspoon yeast, 2 cups sugar, 3 cups water mixture in each bottle

-About 2 bps

Buy Fluval 88g-CO2 Bubble Counter - 3.1 Ounces Now

The round shape of this bubble counter magnifies the bubbles a bit to make them easier to see. Both a clip and suction cup are included for mounting, but neither work well. The clip is too small the fit on anything but a rimless tank and the suction cup will not stay stuck. On the plus side, the clamping hose barbs fit nice and snug.

Overall this is a decent item for the price.

**Update**

The barbed fitting on the output had cracked causing my tank to empty itself over the weekend. I loosened the fitting to remove the hose and the barb snapped off completely. Changed my rating to one star and will be buying something else.

Want Fluval 88g-CO2 Bubble Counter - 3.1 Ounces Discount?

This bubble counter works well for a CO2 freshwater planted aquarium. Connecting it up is a simple matter, but mounting it takes a little ingenuity. Be sure not to connect it too close to your valve from the CO2 source, as should the water back-up too far your solenoid might get water inside, which could render it useless. Check valve(s) strategically placed will prevent this type of damage. It is made out of plastic. It's great for any size tank with a CO2 system, pressurized or not.

Marina Goldfish Kit - UL Purple - X-Large

The tank itself is fine, I didn't really care for the strange shape, but it's a sturdy acrylic tank. The "filter" however, is crap. You will need to buy a real filter that takes filter bags, otherwise you will be cleaning the whole tank out every week.

It was perfect size for my betta, a sucker and two small corry cats. But the weekly fuss over cleaning the damn thing out was terrible. If you buy a GOOD pump with a proper filter, it is a goon starter tank for 4 small fish.

Let me start with a positive comment. This is the perfect tank FOR A BETTA. Or maybe a couple of very, very small fish that will stay that way.

If you plan on buying this for your goldfish, FORGET IT. Save yourself a lot of anxiety and money and BUY A BIGGER TANK. I know this looks like the perfect size for that little 1" goldie you won at the fair, but it is a far cry from what you will need.

*** For your goldfish: You need a tank that holds at least 20 gallons (yes, that says TWENTY) -NOT THIS PIECE OF CRAP. ***

My reasons?

The goldfish might be small when you buy it at the pet store but will grow up to 6" and this is a MINIMUM. Some varieties may grow beyond a foot! This tank will not allow for healthy growth and development BECAUSE IT IS WAY TOO SMALL.

Goldfish are dirty. And by dirty, I mean they poop constantly. This means YOU have to clean up after them. And the smaller the tank, the more often you will need to clean it.

"Filtration" is total crap. Almost nonexistent. I think it just pumps a lot of bubbles into the water. Your goldfish will not be getting enough oxygen. Also raises the water temperature.

Hood traps in too much heat. Because of its small volume, this tank will have drastic changes in temperature which is not good for your goldfish.

Here is my story:

Boyfriend surprised me with a beautiful black moor and a HAGEN Marina Goldfish starter kit -exactly like this one. He purchased both from Superpetz. Neither of us had any knowledge of goldfish but the person who sold him the fish should have. The seller did not tell him that the tank is WRONG WRONG WRONG for a goldfish, which he/she should have known. I did not know this until a couple of days later (after the store had already gone out of business... no surprise there) when I started reading up on my new pet. I noticed that the water was getting murky within a couple of days so I did a 50% water change. Not even two days later, I came home and my fish was frantically swimming in a circle, up toward the surface and down toward the bottom, running itself into the side of the tank, over and over again. It looked like he was trying to push himself out of the tank. Odd, I thought. So I read up on some reasons. "TOO SMALL!" The restrictive size leads to a lot of health issues because of dirtiness. Swim bladder, fin rot, even ICH. I ruled it down to toxic shock. The fish was creating too much ammonia in too small of a space. Unfortunately for me, I cannot afford to buy/have the capacity for a larger tank at the moment. But I am not about to flush my fishie down the toilet, either. So I continue to do a 50% water change AT LEAST every other day (which stresses the fish) and an entire tank cleaning weekly (which stresses the fish AND myself). I hope that my fish makes it through the next week until I am able to get him into a suitable living environment, but the odds do not look good.

I am very upset at the Superpetz employee who was more concerned with making a final sale than offering a better aquarium. But I am downright angry that the HAGEN company would even manufacture this product and falsely advertise it as "a goldfish starter kit." I guess "starter" means "good for about a day and then buy yourself a better tank." Again, it is a good tank for a BETTA, but should be advertised as such. The box shows the tank holding a goldfish but it cannot possibly survive in there for long. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT.

~*~*~ If you plan on purchasing this tank for any kind of goldfish, avoid. Buy a 20 gallon aquarium. It will run you a little more, but it's the type you should have from the beginning anyway. Do not make the mistake that we made (not being educated about the goldfish, etc). I do not mean to slander the HAGEN company but this concerns the health and well-being of a living thing, and this particular product is not conducive to healthy living. Just getting the word out. Be aware. ~*~*~

Boyd Enterprises ABE16710 Freshwater Vitachem for Aquarium, 16-Ounce

This was a neat product. Don't be surprised when you dump it in if you see white dots go everywhere. It spreads little tiny things throughout the tank (like smashed vitamins). The fish go crazy and eat bits and pieces of it. It does eventually disappear and you won't notice it afterwards. At first though you go "What in the..." Grin. But, the fish like it so that's all that matters.

This is by far the best product I could have purchased for my discus aquarium. Heals little nips and cuts they can get from getting scared and running into something and overall my discus look more vibrant and healthy than before I started giving it to them. I mix it in with my own homemade fish food and they eat it up. Highly recommend.

Signature Series Select Wrought Iron Cage - 30x22x63

I recently bought the Prevue "Penthouse" which is Prevue's model # 3153 cage. It was shipped in two very large cartons and there was a delay of a few days between their delivery. That said, I have no other complaints with this cage It is well built, heavy duty, has a nice finish (I chose the Sage color) and my Congo African Grey parrot LOVES it. It is situated in my living room and I can happily report that it looks quite attractive there. My bird inspected it very carefully being the sort of bird who inspects EVERYthing carefully, and after he had made his full rounds and peered at every joint and corner, rewarded me with many songs and bird call imitations to let me know I had done a good thing by giving him this wonderful new "bedroom".

Features I especially like...

The variety of colors that Prevue's cages offer are very pleasing and complement most decor.

The cage is well constructed and the metal is substantial without appearing "heavy". It went together easily.

It is large and roomy for the bird.

The easy outside access, non spillable, food and water dishes will be a godsend for timid petsitters.

The seed guards and easily cleanable droppings trays, keep mess to a minimum.

The playtop is a great place for a bird to spend time outside the cage, high enough for it to feel safe enough to relax, and to give it a grand view from which to peruse it's surroundings, Low enough for even a short owner (I'm 5'1") to be able to deal with the bird and it's needs easily.

The large dishes are so deep the bird can't throw them off the playtop (a favorite trick of my parrot).

The bars are set to allow the parrot to move easily through the cage even using the top to hang upside down... yet are spaced close enough together (3/4") that there can be no unexpected nips to anyone passing by.

I think this is a great cage at an affordable price. I would recommend it as a Happy choice.

Great cage for the price. Very sturdy for my Grey. Castors roll easily. Only thing I wish it had was a door for a breeding box. Very easy to assemble by yourself.

"Over the years I have had a variety of parrots and conures. I "inherited" a Pionus Parrot recently and needed a new cage. Not only was this cage far superior to other cages that I have had in the past for approximately the same price, but the after sale service from the company was exceptional. The cage arrived in a timely manner however one of the "trays" was dented and some paint was scraped off. I called the company's telephone number that appeared in the instructions, left a message, and was called back on the very next business day(Monday) I told the customer service rep what my issue was and he told me he'd send out a replacement tray that day. It arrived on Thursday of the same week that I called the company. NO HASSLE, NO FUSS, NO INQUISION as to how the item was damaged, just a quick replacement of the part. OUTSTANDING!!!! One word of warning when checking the parts inventory and assembling the cage. Some of the screws shown in the instructions are not included, but they are not needed either. The instructions are vague on what screw fastens what piece. Use the "long" screws for the assembly of the cage and use the "short" screws for assembling the "seed guard." After finishing the assembly I had one long and one short screw remaining. Don't panic, these are apparently "extras" as there was no place to use them when the cage assembly was completed. Everything to assemble the cage is included so no extra tools are required. Having someone to help you with assembly will make the job easier. Otherwise you'll need a good sturdy wall to lean the upright cage pieces against until you have two sides connected to each other and then it will stand up on it's own while you complete the assembly. The coating (paint) is very easy to clean, I can change and line both trays in about a minute and a half for each tray. The stainless steel food/water bowls are easy to remove, clean and refill and should last a lifetime. If I ever need another parrot cage again I will absolutely buy from this company. I just can't say enough good things about this cage. I am usually very hard to impress but the quality of the product and customer service after the sale are the best that I've experienced in my life."

Great item. The product took a little longer to ship, probably because it came in 2 boxes and weighed over 100 pounds. A piece was broken, and I had to have it welded.

The Prevue company would not send a replacement part as stated in the paperwork that was sent in the box, they wanted amazon to handle the defective part by sending the whole thing back.

This hood was a replacement hood for an old aquarium. It fitted exactly, in fact the hood was even better since it came in tow pieces so thast you can open and clean one side without having to take the whole hood off.

Fits perfectly on my older tank. I was a bit nervous about ordering this due to the previous negative reviews. I just set it up and it works great especially for the cost

THIS IS A TWO PIECED HOOD WITH AN ELECTRICAL LIGHT THAT SITS ON TOP. IT DOESN'T SEEM SAFE AND IF IT'S NOT PLACED PROPERLY IT WILL FALL. I WOULDN'T SUGGEST THIS FOR YOUR AQUARIUM NEEDS.

I ordered this product and it did not fit the aquarium the way I thought it would. Contacted the seller and they were excellent about helping me return the product, couldn't ask for anything more.

Petmate Walkabout Retractable Belted Leash for Dogs up to 110 Pounds, 16 Feet, Large, Blue

I ordered the Petmate Walkabout retractable leash (pictured) to replace an older one that finally broke after 5 years. I specifically ordered this one because the description said it was the older model, just like the one I had, which was wonderful. The newer models have gotten awful reviews, mainly because they have issues retracting, and are not as strong as the older ones.

You can imagine my surprise and disappointment when I opened the package and found a newer model with a tape like lead, which IS NOT WHAT I ORDERED. Just from looking at it, I can see it is not even close to as strong as the other one. Since Amazon does not provide a customer service agent to talk to, I don't know exactly what to do. If I return, how do I know that my replacement will be like the picture and not another of the same newer version.

I would really appreciate any feedback from customers that have had this same experience or can lead me in the right direction. Thanks!

NOT HAPPY IN BOSTON

Bought one of these to replace a similar Walk About that used chord instead of the flat tape.

Although the tape seems to be fine the recoil spring is way too weak. This causes the tape to stay

out in the elongated position when it should be retracting. The dog then gets tangled in the tape.

Walk About should go back to the prior stronger spring in the older chord model.

Will not buy this brand again unless they make the spring retractor is stronger!

While I did not purchase this leash online here, I bought it at a local commercial store. This is BY FAR the worst leash I have ever owned. It is supremely irritating on a walk, where frankly the retractable capabilities of this leash are questionable AT BEST. My dog is constantly getting all tangled now, because the leash, when it retracts, does so at a super slow rate. In fact, now that it has gotten chilly, to downright cold, the leash retraction has gotten even worse if that is possible. I would never recommend this leash to anyone else, nor will I ever purchase from this brand again. If I could have given this leash 0 stars, I would have.

I purchased this because the old one broke. The older version of this leash was much sturdier. This new version, though lighter, does not have as thick a cord and also the "retracting" does not work as well....somehow it's slower. But all in all it is a very acceptable leash to walk your dog with and seems very capable of controlling my 65lb lab.

Zoo Med Digital Aquatic Turtle Thermometer

It started off good and only got better! I was in need of an aquatic thermometer for my turtley awsome dudes! Green just happens to be my favorite color so when I came across this product I thought I would give it a shot. I have never had any problems with the product slipping from the hole as said in another review. The thermometer has been great; accurate and reliable since day one. It even comes with a replacement battery for when the battery goes dead.

The product works great just like it is suppose too. One flaw that I found was that the thermometer likes to float out of the hole that keeps it attached to the suction cup. Turtle tanks can get dirty, and a little slimy (even though I clean mine every week). The slime build up makes it slippery inside of the hole and the thermometer wants to come loose.

Alright so I just ordered this because seeing as am getting 2 baby turtles I need my water temp. to be correct. I gotit after reading the mixed reviews, it sounded like something I needed and it was digital.

Mine came early, but the reason why I have a problem with it was because it was supposed to come with a battery...it didnt at all. I ordered a replacement, and that one was also without a battery.. Maybe 3rd times the charm, I am a huge fan of zoomed, but this product is pissing mee off.

At the moment, I still dont know how it works seeing as I cant use it.

easy to read, stays in place, and my turtle likes perching himself on it to relax. i might even buy one for outside of the water.

Ok, so i didn't buy this on Amazon, but i bought it locally at Pets-mart and wanted to warn everyone of my experience with this product.

When i first got the thermometer back in December 4 months ago, it seemed to be working, and i was able to hold my tank temp around 78F. Then the tank temperature gradually started to get colder, so i thought one of my heaters started going bad (although they felt warm when i briefly removed them from the tank). So I ordered a 150W heater from amazon and installed it. I set-up the heater and adjusted it to 80F and left it overnight. When i checked on it in the morning, the tank had went from 64F to 68F... so I left for work hoping it just needed more time to reach temp. When i got home the tank was only at 72F and over the next day or so it didnt move. I temporarily pointed a space heater at the tank to augment the deficient heaters, but the temperature barely went up. I decided to clean the tank that weekend and im glad i did. When i removed the thermometer and set it on the table next to the tank, the temperature reading showed 40F!!! I replaced the battery and same issue. My basement is around 65F, so that means i probably had my tank at 95F+ for 4 days! So far my turtle seems to be ok, but I'm lucky i didnt kill the old guy.

If you decide to buy this product, make sure you have a 2nd temperature measuring device in the tank. I'm starting to get the impression that ZooMed stuff is junk... the floating turtle platforms are another example.
