Good snack for our min. schnauzer. We break them in half for her and she's always happy to eat the treat!Read Best Reviews of Nylabone Corn Free/Wheat Free Heart with Real Chicken Here
The dog I purchased these for, is not totally decided that he loves these but his brothers say they do. A crunchy dog treat for the dog who is allergic to corn or wheat. For a standard doxie or mini doxie, these are a decent treat. For a large dog, maybe two are needed.Want Nylabone Corn Free/Wheat Free Heart with Real Chicken Discount?
My dog has skin allergies, and this product doesn't affect him because it's corn and wheat free. Also loves the flavor.Monday, September 22, 2014

It's all very simple. The air "fresheners" that clog supermarket shelves just add a new chemical smell over the odor. OdorCide eliminates the odors and it's environmentally safe.Read Best Reviews of Winston Crystal Clear OC003 8-Ounce OdorCide Odor Eliminator Here
I have used this product for years. I love it, it is not strong and over powering like so many room fresheners (which bother my allegeries). The scent of the Odorcide is mild and pleasant and definitely does the job it was intended to do by getting rid of odors.Want Winston Crystal Clear OC003 8-Ounce OdorCide Odor Eliminator Discount?

Timber Hide-A-Way® Natural Wood Huts for Small Pets
Buy Timber Hide-A-Way® Natural Wood Huts for Small Pets Now
It's the best chewable habitat I've seen. We had a different model our gerbil demolished -but that model was painted bright colors. I suspect it was somewhat toxic to chew on, though our gerbil survived.This is unpainted and seems as safe a habitat as one could buy. Only 3 issues:
1. The label was a nuisance to remove.
2. It's tacked together, so hope the gerbil can figure that out.
3. It's made in China, so we can only cross fingers and hope it really is relatively non-toxic.
Update: Well, four issues. Our gerbil is a manic chewer, and he chewed into a tack on a similar structure. He broke a tooth, which the abscessed. He's now the 150 dollar gerbil, recovering post-op. This wood hut has similar tacks holding it together. If Kangaroo recovers fully, we'll cut this structure apart and build him something held together by string.

I had one of these when I had a guinea pig a few years ago. He loved the little wood hut.It always stayed clean and he enjoyed nibbling on it. A BIG bonus is that it is very durable, and it lasted him about 5 years or so.
I would totally buy one all over again.

Highly recommended.Previously I used cardboard boxes with sections cut out for entry and windows. My pig loved those and would immediately start to nibble on them. They were free and lasted about three months. I ensured that there was no ink, tape or labels on the boxes.
I purchased this recently, and my pig loves it, of course. He's already sticks his head out the top and the side window. I think that this is better for him, because it will help his teeth wear down better than a cardboard box. I don't see any dangers in my guinea pig using this.
The construction is very good, no loose pieces. It's also size appropriate. Great product, fast shipping and arrived in good condition.

Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 30-Inch
The option to turn on/off the blue and white LEDs separately is great. I only use the white ones during the day and sometimes I turn on the blue ones at night. They are both connected to the same plugin though, so you can't use different timers for the two LED types, which is not a big deal for me but might be important to other users.
Overall I am really satisfied with this light. It is bright enough for my purposes, energy efficient and comes at a fair price.

I wanted to replace my T5 NO light with an LED. After reading reviews of this product, I purchased it via amazon. Unfortunately, the light did not work at all. I requested a replacement and it came promptly. The light is everything I want. Nice and bright. Just the right amount of par for my 20 long (maybe a bit too much). Easy to attach to the aquarium frame although I did have to remove the glass top. I would be concerned about 'jumpers' but no one has escaped yet. I would buy this again. It is a bit pricey. Even with the first not working and having to return, the product itself if a five star for me.Read Best Reviews of Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 30-Inch Here
Great buy, terrific light...I bought two to illuminate my 110 gallon freshwater tank. Spending more money on a "fancier" light would be foolish.Want Finnex FugeRay Aquarium LED Light Plus Moonlights, 30-Inch Discount?
While not perfect, I think these lights are a great value. Assuming you are putting this over a 29 gallon tall or a 20 gallon long, you will see average to good plant growth (with better growth from the shorter tank, of course). As a pure fish light, its colors are nice.Frankly, you won't find an LED with these PAR values at this price outside of DIY.

Flourite Red, 7 kg / 15.4 lbs
Buy Flourite Red, 7 kg / 15.4 lbs Now
I put this substrate in my turtle tank after reading a glowing endorsement on a web site dedicated to turtles. I knew upfront that it needed to be rinsed well, more so than an average back of rocks. What I didn't expect was if the turtle or fish makes the slightest fuss with the flourite a cloud of dust is dispersed throughout the tank. The benefits of this product are the pleasant appearance and use as a planting medium. The drawbacks are the constant production of dust and the increased filter maintenance. Unless you're wanting to plant your aquarium I would recommend sticking to river rocks or other suitable substrate. If you choose to use this product I definitely recommend switching from the sponge filter to floss. I am using a 100% polyester crafter's stuffing and it is excellent at catching all the dust.LOVE this substrate, my tank looks fabulously natural! It was a little cloudy initially but goes away, don't forget to rinse it first :)This stuff was so dusty and dirty i couldnt even clean it all and it plugged up 2 filter cartridges!!Never again,i dont care if it was $5.00 a bag!!!Saturday, October 26, 2013

Tetra EasyStrips Test Strips
I have a 10 gallon tropical freshwater tank, a 8 gallon shrimp tank and a small betta fish tank.
All of the them are cycled and controlling the parameters are important for the shrimp tank.
I got this for the convenience vs liquid test kits, which are known to be more accurate
There was well over 1 year till the expiry date but I have found the test strips to be inaccurate.
Tetra test strips vs. API master test kit
Nitrate(ppm): 30 vs 80
Nitrite(ppm): 0 vs 0
GH(ppm): ~75 vs 80
KH(ppm): ~60 vs 120
pH: ~6.6 vs 8.0
The parameters that way off are Nitrate, KH, pH and also Chlorine.
I do not have a Cl test kit but there is no way my tap water has 0ppm of Cl. I smell it myself in a bath.
Bottom line: extremely inaccurate.Have been using the strips for month or two and they work ok for a quick reading. I have compared the results with another brand test strip and the API master test kit. The only one that is really off for me is the nitrate which keeps coming up bright pink or 200 and the real level is 20. Not sure why it keeps doing this except maybe since my tank water is so hard? Not sure. I have tried the strips in other samples of water including spring water and distilled water. And it seems to work fine with those samples. I think for most causal fish keepers the strips should work fine but remember the strips are not as good as the liquid tests. I probably will not be buying these again since I always have to double check the nitrate level to be sure it's not really off the charts.

I use them as a quick check, and if anything is out of spec I will run a liquid test kit to see what corrections to doI had thought that i was purchasing something that would last me a long time. being a homeowner with two fish tanks 100 strips were going to last me a long time. I had read the reviews and decided i would use them for an initial test and use my liquid test kit if it was way off. Super excited to get them in. they expire the following month! I have less then one month to use these. Guess this is the reason they are not as expensive as in pet stores. don't waste your money.Good stuff, easy to use and read results. It's way cheaper compared to the stores in my area. I would recommend this to anyone that had an aquarium, this is a must.Sunday, August 18, 2013
Seachem Prime 500ml
An example would be Stress Coat which has binding sugar strands in the Aloe. This isn't a problem unless one of your fish has a small scratch or wound.The sugar feeds the bacteria which can lead to major infection and dire consequences.I've been using Amquel for years and it's a fine conditioner, excellent at removing chlorine, and Chloramines, but like all these products they come with limitations.
Well, with one exception and that's Prime by Seachem.
A few months ago, I decided to give it a try, and haven't looked back since. Prime doesn't just remove the chlorine and Chloramine it does much more:
* Detoxifies any and all heavy metals in your tap water
(you can call your water company directly for a list of them and PPM)
* Neutralizes Ammonia
* Neutralizes Nitrite
* Neutralizes high Nitrate to non toxic levels
* Removes toxic gases
* Will not foam or change PH
* Helps regenerate natural slime coat
Since using Prime, I've seen a dramatic improvement in all of my fish. In 2010 one of tanks was hit with the dreaded and rare Toxic Tank Syndrome within 48 hours I had lost nine gorgeous fish except for one survivor, a single Broad Tail Nymph.Since that ordeal, "Roxy" became a bottom dweller spending most of her time laying in a corner. Treatments were conservative, but nothing worked.
After my first 50% water change using Prime her behavior began to improve. Now she swims among her tank mates, her color is better, gill movement stabilized and her appetite ferocious. In fact I see improvements in all my fish and in every tank.There simply isn't anything like it, Prime is hands down one of the best things you can do for your fish.
In addition to the outstanding, patented formula of Prime it couldn't be more economical to use. A single 500 ml bottle treats up to a whopping 5,000 gallons of water. A tiny bit goes a long, long way.It should also be noted that in times of emergency the dose can be increased five times, Prime is harmless to fish.It's the only product of it's kind, and towers above any other water treatment on the market period.
If your an aquarium hobbyist be it novice or advanced I would urge you to add a bottle of Prime to your arsenal of fish care products. Your finned friends will thank you for it.In my opinion, SeaChem's Prime is the best water conditioner on the market. I've tried a few of them and Prime does the best job. It removes chlorine/chloramine and other toxic metals from water instantly. Plus, as little as literally ONE drop treats a gallon of water. I have a total of 115 gallons of water in my 3 tanks. I perform 50% weekly water changes in all of the 3 tanks. To give you an idea of how economical Prime is, I've had a 250 mL bottle of it for more than a year. Only a few dollars' worth will treat hundreds of gallons of water. And as I've mentioned above, I perform 50% weekly water changes for my 115 gallons of water. Now, that's what I call a really great product. Highly recommend it to any serious fish keepers :o)I usually don't write reviews, but I did want to take the time to recommend this product. I have been keeping fancy goldfishes for over ten years now and finding the right tap water conditioner had always been a headache for me. I have tried most of the popular products on the market and they have always given me either mixed results or no results at all. Too often, I've had the fish die on me after a water change. However, when someone recommended the Prime water conditioner to me during a visit to the pet store, my problem was solved. I have used this product for a few years now and never since had any more fish die after a water change. I sincerely believe this is the most effective all-in-one solution on the market and for regular fish keeping, this is the only water conditioner one really needs.I bought this water conditioner at a chain pet store. It is so effective at removing chloramines, chlorine, and ammonia that you barely need to use any at all. Just follow the directions and the bottle will last you forever if you have a modest sized tank.I have been using Seachem Prime 500ml for several years in my fish tank. It is the best in my opinion and takes very little to make my fish happy and healthy I wont use anything else! Amazon has the best price I have found.

Catalina Titanium Heater 300 Watt
2 years now and the heater works like a charm.
Buy Catalina Titanium Heater 300 Watt Now
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.

The clarity of this glass is just crystal. Really. It looks as transparent as genuine crystal and the float is just flawless. It can be hard to see in the illustration but the curved front of the tank is beveled which makes the tank appear even more jewel-like and dressy enough to proudly display in the front office. It's is an impressive piece of glass work!Buyer beware --this is not a 3 gallon tank-it is TWO gallon tank---very disappointed--state the true facts-please-not recommended-sorry--be truthfulWant Mr. Aqua 3 Gallon Frameless Bow Front Glass Aquarium Tank 11. 8 x 7. 0 x 8. 3 Inch Discount?
This is a great tank. Superb craftsmanship, and just simply beautiful. No rim so it looks nice and sleek. As to the comments it is not 3 gallons....kind of a fib. It is 3 gallons (or 2.96 gallons which is essentially 3 gallons) Non tempered glass so you can drill these tanks! Awesome, Awesome!
