Multipet's Nuts for Knots Rope Bone Dog Toy with Squeaker, 16-Inch

Although this product was billed as tough, my dog destroyed most of it in ten minutes. I had to take it away from her so that she wouldn't ingest the string from which it is made. This product is not tough, and only dogs with soft mouths who kind of like to "gum" toys should have this product within their reach.

It's difficult for me to squeak it, impossible for my dog, and she's a strong-jawed greyhound. A fine rope toy, otherwise, but the squeaker is both weak and hard to engage.

Fish Tank Aquarium Light 48" 6x54w T5 HO Actinic Fixture

The product was well described, and works great! The timer takes a few minutes to figure out, but it works well! I reveiced a faulty bulb, which was replaced several times by the seller due to transit issues (i.e. bulb shattered upon arrival). The seller was very helpful and cosiderate. I would def buy from them again.

I order two of these lighting units...All but a few of the bulbs were broken when it arrived although NOT due to poor packing but rather poor handling by UPS. It happens now and then. I emailed the company and they responded asap and sent out new bulbs that all arrived intact within a day or two. They followed-up on my order progress and shipment. It's rare to get that level of excellence in customer services these days.

The lighting fixture itself is awesome. No more multiple cords/plugs with timers to turn off and on...This one unit does it all with a built-in digital timer and display. It's made solid and the reflector is molded for optimal light reflection. This unit is extremely similar to another lighting unit that sell for a couple hundred dollars more.

This unit is set-up with marine lighting at 12,000K per tube and 2 actinic tubes, but I figured out the cost to change out the bulbs to convert to freshwater and it still comes out to be a great deal for freshwater too. I'm going to order another and switch out the tubes for 6,000K HO T-5s for a planted freshwater tank.

I'm very pleased with this purchase and impressed with the company's customer service. Highly recommend!

1st time I ordered it arrived broken, not sure if from shipping even though couple holes in box or if it was damaged already? 2nd time ordered my husband put the light together for me while I was at work, one blue bulb did not work, for me this was not a big deal however, the LEDs lights did not work. The first one that did work but was damaged when plugged in looked AMAZING! However the light it's self is flimsy, not well built and no name brand etc. also did not come with instruction booklet. I feel this light is just cheap and not of good quality. For 100 dollars more my husband took me to a marine store and bought be an amazing light with 4 bulbs and very heavy and durable. Not like this.

Finnex 150-Watt Hang-On Digital Controller Aquarium Heater, Titanium Tube, 30 to 60-Gallon

This heater is all you'd expect from Finnex. it features a sleek design, and a super simple set up. Thanks guys you've pull it off again.

Ray.

I am not an expert on aquariums but I have owned a few heaters over the years. This seems to be one of the best. You can adjust it without taking it out of the tank or getting your hands wet. It also gives a digital reading of the current temp. This is good because my last heater died and I didn't know, I only noticed it because my fish were very lethargic. I can't comment on it's durability I have only had it a week, but I am hopeful and so far very happy.

The unit is fairly high output for its size and achieves a high temperature. I positioned mine near the output of a UV filter outflow to raise the efficiency and prevent high temperatures. This unit replaced a digital thermometer and submersible heater. I did have to find a location that allowed for hiding the shiny metal heating element...

Purchased this heater as I've been able to crack 2 glass ones now in the past year... I've had a titanium in the past, gave that tank set up away quite some time ago and its still going!

This one seems to be working well, compared temp setting with a digital laser shooter type thermometer and unit was right on par with that with maybe 1 degree difference at various times. So far so good... I like it.

Well, its now June 2011 and I have been through two of these heaters and do not recommend them at all. Unit looks great as mentioned by others, nice red digital display to read temp from across the room, seemed to work well for a while.. then it stopped heating...fish started complaining it was cold, etc...

I contacted the seller (coral aquatics) and even though I was out of my warranty time period they were nice enough to tell me to send it in.. They turned the repaired heater around to me in a few days which was great and I used it again for maybe 2 months or so same problem. No heat.

I tried them again, but being this far out of purchase I cant blame them for not wanting to look at this thing.. truth is, I really don't care to keep doing battle with this heater and decided on a JBJ True Temp unit as also mentioned in the previous review.. I've tried several glass heaters in the mean-time with not much luck. Most recently, a Ehiem Jager 150w model.... read the reviews, available from the local shop cant get my 50g tank above 72... Ugh... Thermometers are another story for another review, Im now using a digital laser shooter type unit as I wrote above to get more accurate readings.

Bottom line, do as others have written and save yourself from this headache of a heater... There is very little quality with this one.

Imagine Gold Llc AIM77212 Bio 3 Cartridge Reg 12-Pack

These are great. Much cheaper than purchasing in the smaller packs. I ordered 2 boxes and one of them even came with a new frame. Good quality. I just wish they had more carbon in them, but none of them do.

These filters are a good system and easy to replace the filters. Far more inexpensive than some. Would recommend to anyone.

ClearFree® Premium Undergravel Aquarium Filters

I really like undergravel filters for filtration. It's old school tech and if you go with some plants, it will fertilize them. I've had systems setup where I didn't have to change water for 6 months because of the balance between plants and the filter. Just topping off. Just beware of some of the colored gravel. I bought some from petco that broke down in 2 months and mass killed all the fish in my tank. I've got the filter in another tank with different gravel and it's working fine.

I couldn't find an undergravel filter from any stores in my area. Saw this one on amazon and it was delivered very quickly, and was just what I needed. It is help keeping the water my 20 gallon aquarium nice and clear.

This is the exact same Penn Plax plates I used about 20 years ago. Very little changes have been made over the years... :) They STILL have the same issue with holding the plates together, at least long enough to get them into the bottom of the aquarium. Penn Plex COULD do a little more design work on the molds to fix this problem.....this of course will NEVER HAPPEN.

Bought this for my turtle tank and it is a time saver! His tank is so much easier to maintain. Easy set up, clear instructions. For the price of the 10 gallon filter, I would highly recommend this.

Please note: For turtle pet owners who don't believe in gravel for turtles, please don't get into a huge debate with me as there are clearly polarized opinions. I've been using gravel for my turtle for ~1 year and he's been happy and healthy.

Aqueon Tap Water Conditioner

I hate to say it, but some of these reviews just leave me shaking my head (no, this didn't kill your fish, and no, the review area of amazon isn't for reviewing a certain seller's packing method).

Anyways, I figured I should review this since the current review score on Amazon is really messed up right now. This product is great, I've used it now for a few years in all of my aquariums with all different types of fish.

Just to note, I've had several different bottles of the Aqueon conditioner, and I've used it in several different tanks (so no, I don't think I got some fluke bottle that for some reason worked better than what others stated).

My 50 gal cichlid tank does well with this product.

My 30 gal cichlid tank does well with this product.

My 20 gal community tank does well with this product.

My 10 gal betta tank does well with ths product.

My 5 gal guppy tank does well with this product.

(I've also had various betta tanks and whatnot over the past few years, and my sister has used this for both brackish and salt water tanks).

Anyways, I've tried this and other conditioners; I personally don't care for the Tetra conditioner, but I do think most of them work fairly well no matter the brand. However, using this conditioner, I've never had cloudy water, I've never head unusual death rates (most of my fish are several years old at this point, many living longer than average life expectancy). So, I don't think you can go wrong with this product; it may be slightly more in cost than the cheapest products out there, but it does work.

If your fish are dying, and you think it is due to this conditioner, I would urge you to re-analyze what the scenario is. Some people will have tap water that cannot be altered enough to be fish safe, even with conditioner, as there are several other particles to take into consideration (ph, iron and other metals being the most obvious concerns). Also, if you are concerned about high chlorine/metals in your water, it doesn't hurt to add more than the recommended dosage of the conditioner. I wouldn't go crazy and add half the bottle, but even so much as doubling the amount recommended shouldn't do any damage. It's a little hard to measure anyways, since the dosage is for 10 gal, but I don't know where people are getting 10 gal buckets at, I usually just use 5gal buckets for water change, and add what looks like a little over half of the 5ml dosage. You could add 5ml for every 2 buckets, but I like to add the conditioner first, then fill up the bucket so it gets nice and mixed with the water.

Anyways, my 2+ cents.

This is an excellent product and great price! I use this to add water to three different tanks so I needed a good qty of it and was able to find it through your site at a reasonable cost. Excellent!

The moonlights are perfect as described. The twin pair just comes with a splitter to split the power off the single transformer to both sets of lights. The brightness doesn't seem affected by the splitter.

These aren't water proof, they may handle an occasional drop of water, but thats about it.

Tetra Pond Bio-Active Pressure Filters

This is really an extraordinary product in its class. I have run thru a series of unsatisfactory flimsy overpriced filters; this one for very little more is superbly sturdy, well functioning, complete in itself. The self cleaning feature is awesome -eliminating a time consuming and dirty task. Hats off!

I've owned many filters in the past five years. This is by far the best and well worth the money. There are less expensive backflush models (I had a Sundra that lasted a year at best and was a constant battle to clean and keep from leaking). I have had this filter for several months and am amazed that in less than 5 minutes I can clean my skimmer and the filter. This filter came with a UV light which is an added bonus at this price.

I have a pond with about 2,000 3,000 gallons, but because I have approximately 20 Koi the pond was a lot of upkeep prior to this filter. Know it's no effort.

I wish the intake and output holes were larger. My pump discharges a 1.5" pipe and I have to reduce it to a 1.25" pipe in order to connect to this filter. I had it for about a year now and it works well.

Received as promised from Amazon. Installed filter to my 1000 gallon fish pond. Has been installed and running for 5 days now and already I can see the difference. My prior filter was to small, over the years my fish population has grown. So a new filter was in order. Tetra Pond Bio-Active Pressure Filter is working perfectly. On installation, I dug a hole and used the 20 gallon bucket (from a big box home store for around $10) and sat the filter in the bucket. I used 11/2" PVC pipe as my backwash with a union to make it easy to disconnect for winter storage. The only downside is it's all plastic, so be careful when tightening all fittings, I also recommend using

teflon tape on the fittings. 5 stars for both Amazon and Tetra!

After looking at many filters I decided on this one to go along with the Tetra Pond Debris-Handling Pump DHP3600.

My pond would not stay clear with my old pump and filter combo.

this filter and pump combo worked very well and with in 2 days i could already tell a difference that the pond was clearing. Using the back flush was a lot easier and more efficient than my old combo.

the only issue i have with this set up is the hose connections. to remove the hoses from the filter you need to undo the hose clamps which can be a minor inconvenience.

after about a week i had to open up the filter and clean it as a ton of sludge build up in there, i have back flushed it once since then and all is going well.

over all I am very happy with this filter.

U.P. Aqua Cichlid Stone (medium)

I bought the small and medium size for my 15 gallon column cichlid tank. I rinsed them and put them in and the fish love them.

I think this is a very nice Cichlid stone although from the picture, it appeared there was only one hole in the stone. The one I received has a hole in both the back and front and although the Cichlids seem to enjoy it, it does not offer the smaller Cichlids the protection they would like as another Cichlid can chase them out of the stone from the other end. I would have liked to have known the stone had two holes. I would also like to know the actual size of the stone because I felt this stone was on the smaller size yet it was labeled medium in the advertisement. The larger Cichlids that are in the tank are not able to get into the stone.

Aquarius Aq360-2g Gloview 2-Gallon Aquarium Kit

I bought the Petco version of this aquarium. It is small. It was able to house 1 goldfish and 2 african dwarf frogs. The included filter is not very good, as this was expected for a very inexpensive kit.

I tried to use a Tetra Whisper In-Tank Filter 3I, 1 to 3-Gallon, which wasnt very effective. Your best bet is to get a decent HOB. The cutout in the cover is very small, so make sure the filter will fit. My AZOO Mignon Filter 60 works great, but is too big for the cutout.

Eventually, I ended up returning this tank and got a Aquarius Aq15005 Aquarius 5 Rounded 5-Gallon Aquarium Kit, which gives you a lot more room for the same price.

This product came with a visible crack in the bottom. I then ordered a similar replacement product from the same manufacturer and the pump did not work properly on that one.

Elite Soft Airline Tubing, 20 Feet

to get the bend from packaging out, just place in boiling water for a few seconds then stretch it out to cool

Nice tubing. Excellent quality. Reasonable price. Soft and flexible. Just don't put it in too tight a spot since, being soft, it's easy to pinch off. Using more rigid tubing if that's a concern.

Nice tubing. Flexible, does not kink easily, can be straightened with fairly little effort.

The color, however, is rather striking. Even in a marine tank with gaudy backgrounds this hose will stand out.

I am able to hide it behind the Fluval heater (which as Norm says, celebrates it's existence, big and very black) so it's not too much of a concern for me.

If however, one has a fairly sparsely decorated tank it is going to be the focal point.

Usb Desktop Fish Aquarium, Real Fish Tank, Alarm Clock

• Mini fish tank with running water (recirculating)
• USB power connector
• LCD Alarm clock with time/date/temperature/snooze and countdown timer
• Dual Compartment Desk Organizer
• Color changing LED interior lights

For starters, the thing arrived in pieces. The bottom was rattling loose in the box, along with all the pebbles that had also come loose from the baggie they were in that had a gaping hole in it. The plastic tank had scratches all over it from the loose pebbles as a result. The pump for the water had come unglued from the bottom of the base and due to the small size of the tank compared with the faucet, pump, base, and size of my fist, I was unable to re-seat the pump under the base without gluing it back on. Upon seeking a glue to use, my local fish department store said using glue to hold the pump in place would kill any fish I put in the tank. The display for the clock is so faint I could barely tell it worked, and then, that portion of the device went through batteries so quickly, it wasn't funny. It ate through 12 (three per sitting, four sittings total) batteries in a week! The only reason this thing even got 2 stars is because the light was nice and bright when plugged in via USB.

Seachem Alkaline Buffer 600gram

I know a lot of people use regular baking soda to raise there pH levels, but Seachem's Alkaline buffer is much safer and it also has it's limits, which baking soda doesn't. Baking soda can raise your pH level to much and to fast, both of which are deadly to your fresh water fish.

I use this Alkaline buffer because my city water is very soft, and has a pH level of about 5.8 to 6.0

I need it to be closer to 8.0, with higher KH as well. My KH level is almost non existent, but with the addition of Seachems Alkaline buffer it's raised to 7, which aids in keeping my pH stable over time.

So this product does an excellent job in raising both pH and KH, for fresh water aquariums, and thats great for my fish!

Seachem is both a high quality, and highly trusted name with aquarium keepers all over.

They also make one of the best and safest water conditioners made, it's called "Prime"

It makes your tap water safe for fish by removing heavy metals, it converts ammonia to a non toxic form (great for when a new tank is cycling), and is just very safe.

I've been an aquarium owner and fish keeper for almost 10 years now, and highly recommend both Prime and the Alkaline buffer from Seachem.

I'd also highly recommend the API Freshwater Master Test Kit, for anyone just starting there aquarium.

Plus for newcomers, I really recommend becoming a member to an online community of aquarium keepers for help and tips so your not alone when something bad happens.
