Jardin Plastic Fish Tank Aquarium Plant Décor with Ceramic Base, 5-Piece, Red Green
The quality of the plants is good, and the bases are weighted enough to keep the plant down by itself. You will not find this color combination in this style of plant anywhere else, and the price is good, around a dollar and some change each. I recommend you buy this item. Since it comes with 5 in a pack it is really ideal.

Tetra 77853 Whisper Air Pump, 40-Gallon
For the money this is a good little air pump. Although I do have to say that after around the 4 month mark like everyone else giving a review here it got very noisy.
Don't worry there is a fix! Unscrew the 4 Philips head screws under the unit and separate the bottom and the top. You will find a stack of "L" shaped magnets. Move the stack a bit to the right and tighten the nut that holds the "L" shaped magnets in place. Put it back together and ta-da no more noise! The Problem is that the little arm that holds the square shaped magnet is hitting the "L" shaped magnets with every pump. All you have to do is give it some space so it doesn't hit the other stack of magnets. The nut might not have be tight enough when they built it or it rattled loose during normal use allowing the stack of magnets to slip a bit.
All in all this is a pretty good pump. Just wish Tetra would pay closer attention to the little things.I bought one of these for my 29 gallon tank to use with a bubble wand. It was easy to set up and worked fine for two days. On the third day, when I came home from work, the first thing I heard when I walked in the front door was a loud buzzing sound. I followed the buzz to find out that it was the air pump. It wasn't the pump itself vibrating against the shelf it was on, but the motor of the pump. My aquarium is towards the back of the house, so for me to hear it as soon as I walked in tells you it was pretty loud. On top of that, there was only a small amount of air coming out of the bubble wand. I figured I'd just gotten a defective one, so I returned it and got a replacement. It worked great for about a month and a half until it woke me up this morning making the same exact loud buzz that the first one did. Low airflow to the bubble wand as well. Unfortunately, it broke after the store's return period expired, so now I can either deal with the manufacturer (which is always fun) or just count my losses and move on.
Would not recommend to others.

I NEEDED SOMETHING FOR MY PLECOSTOMOS, WHICH IS 9 INCHES LONG. THIS WAS PERFECT,COMPARED TO THE LITTLE ROCK HE WAS TRYING TO GET IN AND OUT OF. IT IS JUST THE PERFECT SIZE AND IT LOOKS VERY NICE IN MY 55 GAL AQUARIUM. I LOVE IT AND SO DOES MY PLECOSTOMUS. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE FOR THEIR AQUARIUM, I HAVE HAD A LOT OF COMPLIANTS ON IT. THANK YOUIt came in a huge box, which i was very excited. Didnt think it was going to be that big. I have a 55 gallon tank and my poor pleco is at least 10 inches long and had no where to hide in my tank. He loves the cave. He has a little trouble turning around in it. but he loves it. Just baught the blue jardin tree too. Recommend that one too. The cave almost touches from front to back of my tank kiddie cornered. And looks amazing. Very deep, which doesnt show in the picture. I am very pleased.Wednesday, May 14, 2014

Glo Moon Rock Cave By Underwater Galleries - 6 Pack
Pros:
The right size for 10 Gallons and up tanks.
Very bright and glow color in day time and aquarium lights.
relatively inexpensive to add accents to my aquarium.
Cons:
No fish wants to hide in the cave, they hide behind it but not in it.
Unlike most of the green color glow items, its relflective glow with lights instead of glow itshelf strongly without lights.
In conclusion, I wont regret buying it, its a decent deal and unique.
Buy Glo Moon Rock Cave By Underwater Galleries - 6 Pack Now
Misleading Product Title. I thought I was getting 6 glo moon rocks. Not sure why 6 pack is even in the name. Would have selected something else if I would have known.Read Best Reviews of Glo Moon Rock Cave By Underwater Galleries - 6 Pack Here
This product is very overpriced, it should really be 20 dollars at most (for all 6). Yes it does glow, it gives off a gentle green glow. I will admit it looks pretty well made for what I paid for it.My albino Cory catfish enjoy hiding inside it. My ghost shrimp hides in it too. Or at least I think it does.
As with most glow in the dark items the cave reflects light from around it, so it won't glow unless light it around it. Also, the cave is lumpy (which is cool) but it has some relatively sharp points.
-editApril 13th; cave is still glowing well, my albino cory catfish (corydoras) love hiding in it. I would really recommend it for them. But save your money, get it from walmart.

I don't know how many you get because I got mine from another site. I love it. My fish don't seem to feel the need for it, but it adds a fun, random element to my tank. :) And it glows for hours.(note: once it gets dirty with algae and so on, it doesn't come totally clean, but I personally see nothing wrong with that)

Designs by Nature 3 D Aquarium Background BJ051A 31.5"x 21.75"x 2"
Overall, I would buy it again so I have to give it 4 Stars. It's better than spending a week trying to build one. I didn't have the time to do that.

This background was the finishing touch to my wife's aquarium. We had spent a couple hundred dollars on artificial coral and plants, this tied it all together. Trimming was accomplished with a small scalpel and straight edge and the installation took less than twenty minutes including measuring and final fitting.Read Best Reviews of Designs by Nature 3 D Aquarium Background BJ051A 31.5"x 21.75"x 2" Here

Squeaky Bones Rubber Toy
Figured I would give something a bit easier to squeeze a try and the bone looked like a good option. I actually spent more time checking out toys than it took him to damage this. He pierced the plastic of the squeaker within a few seconds of chewing on the end of the bone. Luckily he is still enjoying a good chew on the durable rubber but it is time for these companies to find a way to protect the squeaker better. Oh well. I did see a Kong product with a squeaker that was completely protected so I will probably try something like that next. It was a long tube that was clear blue. Worth checking out if you have a dog that will do more than just squeak in the middle of this toy.
For dogs with a large mouth the large ball will be better choice IMO. The search for the perfect toy continues.Sorry, but I have to give this dog toy only 3 stars, as the day I got it, its really hard to squeak, and my little dog doesn't like it if it doesn't. Not worth sending it back! Too bad, its really cute. Defective squeaker I guess.I wanted organge toy, that's what's shown on the site. They sent purple and dog had it torn apart in under 5 minutes. Four paws makes rounder shaped toys that do hold up but not this shape, too easy for dog to get squeaker out and tear it apart. This seller should send me a free one.

KONG Laser Cat Toy
This much fun is just wrong!I bought this toy for my cat and about the third time I have used it, the laser started dimming rapidly and is not almost dead. I thought KONG was supposed to be a good brand, oh well, probably won't buy anything from them again.This makes the fur children happy. I can't even pick up the chain to this thing without one of them immediately running into the room with that crazed look on their face. Loads of fun.
Read Best Reviews of KONG Laser Cat Toy Here
This laser is very light, and the shape is comfortable to hold.The laser beam itself, is bright and creates an easily visible red dot.
The keychain part of it has two options, traditional ring, or open/close hook (I don't know the proper term), which makes it easy to put away.
My cat, who is 7 years old, enjoys playing with it, though not as much as when she was younger.
As a kitten, she would literally climb the walls trying to catch it!
Now she sometimes watches the laser-device, rather that the dot it emits, but knowing where the dot comes from hasn't made her lose interest in playing.
My 1 1/2 year old pup, however, was terrified at first.
He hid even after we put it away. When I got him to come out, he kept frantically looking around, making sure the dot wasn't coming!
We had to reintroduce it to him slowly, showing him that it was just a toy, and couldn't hurt anything.
He isn't as terrified now, but still backs away from it. I can tell he is also getting a bit curious though, so hopefully he'll come around soon!
Each pet has it's own personality, and the laser is so affordable, I would recomend trying it. If your pet ends up liking it, they'll get a lot of exercise, and likely do some hilarious things trying to catch it.
Just be careful not to shine it in their eyes!Well, the laser works great. My cat just doesn't chase it at all! She is the first cat I've had that doesn't chase the "red dot".

Buy Hydor 100W Submersible Aquarium Heater - Original Theo Now
Bought two of these for my 20 long freshwater tank (I put one on each side.) They practically go on and off at the same time that's how well calibrated they are. In my setup, they have about a 2-degree range from where I calibrated them meaning, I set them both to their highest settings initially and after an hour I plugged them in, and then turned them both down until they turned off at the temperature I wanted (79 degrees.) The tank fluctuates between 78+ and 80+ degrees, which is very acceptable to me.Read Best Reviews of Hydor 100W Submersible Aquarium Heater - Original Theo Here

The hydor THEO line of heaters is great. they're not HUUUUUUGE and they get the job done.they consistently maintain the temperature of the water.
i have comparable heaters but they're as long as my elbow to the tips of my fingers. the theo is nice and small and you can fit it in just about any aquarium.
it also does not pop or make other noises like aquion heaters.

Petego- Auto Pet Carrier - Orange Wheels
CONS: (1) The orange knob used to open/close the door is small and smooth/slick, which makes it comparatively difficult to use with my large hands (I am 6'4"), especially as the locking mechanism requires a push-and-rotate action. (2) Though I love the beautiful/minimalist aesthetic of the A.U.T.O (Animal Urban Transport Object), I believe the carrier could be made sturdier and the door fit a little better by building a second hinge mechanism. The current design causes the door to tilt a little when open, and leaves little room for error in creating parts, such that, for example, there is a very small, 1cm gap on on my carrier (located in the few inches between the front orange "wheel" and the carrier door) because the the plastic molding is a too thick at the hinge. (3) Though I love the soft rubber on the carrying handle, I wish the handle itself was more cylindrically/rope-shaped so that I could grip it in my hand like a suitcase, rather than balancing the weight of my dog on my fingertips, which is what the present, flattened/strap-shape of the handle requires me to do.This was pretty cute but just okay in terms of function. I really like the one I ended up getting made by Pet Gear. It has a base that you put in your car, which makes the carrier lay straight and not crooked on the seat. It's very secure. If you are thinking about safety first for your pet, go with that one. It's kind of hard to find on Amazon, it's called the "Pet Gear Auto Carrier & Kennel for cats and dogs up to 15 lbs".
