Umbra FishHotel Aquarium

I bought one through Amazon. Bigger than what I expected. It's a reasonably healthy space for a betta, mine is swimming happily. I was able to fit a small biological filter in the corner with no space problems. The unique "condo" design doubles as hiding areas for the fish. And it looks cool.

I give it 4-stars because it has no lid, I had to fashion one from clear, hard plastic.

I've had three of these for several months now and I have no complaints. I have a betta in each and have two stacked with one on the side. I love the mod design and the fact that each bowl holds close to a gallon gives each of my betta a decent amount of space in a modern, compact design. they are easy to clean and I change the water every two weeks. it doesn't take long to clean and each of my betta are very happy with their homes. I'd highly recommend buying one or two!

I'll be honest, My co-worker and I bought this with the assumption that the fish would have actual rooms to swim in. But it doesn't. It's a glass box that fits down into the plastic crate.

That disappointment aside, it's a neat fish box. Everyone loves looking at it at work. And it holds a gallon of water perfectly-which is a nice amount of a betta (you really don't want less than that).

All in all, I'm quite happy with it. Now I just need to find a couch for my fish and we're set :)

I originally brought this because I love the design, but there things I realized after I set it up. My room is pretty cold, so it definitely needed a small heater inside and I also put in a underwater light. The fish hotel looks awesome when lit up. Thus, the problem is all the wiring that comes out, so its not really keeping that clean look, which it was intended for.

I bought two of these because I had 2 bettas and liked the modern-chic theme that added to my home. After a few months I actually sort of got bored of it. I think it's because the visibility of the colorful fish is a bit obstructed, and since I am a lot about the plant decor as well, the hiding areas of the walls made it even more hard to free up the aquascape.

However, I had no issues with the tank itself. It was roomy, safe, fish never jumped out and had room for a small filter. My issue is that it just wasn't for my taste, that's all. If you like minimal and simplicity yet with a bit of chic, this is for you. If you like to keep decorating and experiment with aquascaping while seeing it all fully, then I'd recommend a more visible tank.

AZOO Mignon Filter 60

This is a great little filter for my 3 gal. tank with my betta Angelo. It is VERY quiet and the water stays SO clear. The flow can be controlled which is nice because betta do not like heavy flow. I would have given it 5 stars but the instructions are VERY vaugue and there is no number to call to ask questions. There is a little black knob that is part of the set up, it goes in the bottom of the filter to keep it stable. Other than that it is a great item for the money.

This is the perfect little filter for the Tetra Crescent Aquarium Kit, 3-Gallon. The tank kit came with a whisper internal filter and I didn't like how it took up so much space. So I got this and I have to say I am very happy. I would recommend AsianDude666 on youtube for the setup, that's where I got the idea about this filter. 110% Satisfied! =)

Wow, just got it today (Prime in 2 days). Waited to use it in a new tank, Tetra 3 gallon (didnt get it here). The Tetra tank came with a cheaply made in-tank 3i filter which I was already familiar with from my current 1 gallon tank. The AZOO definitely beats the Tetra filter hands down. Its like night and day. The flow is adjustable, great suction power despite it being very small. The 3 gallon tank top has cutouts that fits this filter perfectly. All you need is 3.5 inch clearance. Its whisper quiet.

The best part, though it comes with both a carbon sponge and filter sponge, the Tetra filter cartridge Tetra Whisper Bio-Bag Cartridge small, 2-Packfor the Tetra 3i filter fits perfectly into the AZOO diagonally. I'll try to post a few pictures.

Anyway, I went and got 2 more as back ups. Since its not a know brand like Tetra, it appears to be a Taiwanese brand, don't know how long it will be on Amazon.

Like other reviewers, this IS a great filter for small setups. I have 3, and use them when extracting fry, or various discoveries from either the 65 gal reef or 30 gal freshwater tanks. It should be noted that both tanks are equipped with Aqua Clear 110 filters, to which I add white felt pads cut to the size of the sponge).

To aid in filtration, I have created little mesh bags filled with charcoal. Additionally, approx. 4 pieces of ceramic containing healthy bacteria have been extracted from the main Aqua Clear filter and placed within the Zoo filter compartment. By adding the charcoal & ceramic to the Zoo filter you will greatly improve the over all performance of this great little devise.

Enjoy!

Just set this filter up the other day on my 3 gallon Marineland Crescent. The filter hangs outside of the aquarium, so you'll need a few inches of space behind it. The intake is the only part of the filter that is inside the aquarium, so it doesn't take away swimming space. The filter is almost completely silent. The instructions are vague as another reviewer mentioned, but fortunately on youtube there is a video by AsianDude666 which demonstrates how to set the filter up, and he suggests getting Aquaclear foam and Biomax to use, as the sponges that come with the filter are skimpy. You can just cut the Aquaclear foam sponge to fit the filter. Both items were found cheap on valuepetsupplies.com. I set it up exactly like he did it, and it seems to work great. I have the flow set to the lowest setting and my betta is fine with it. For a couple weeks, I am taking turns running the Azoo and my original filter so the Azoo has time to collect beneficial bacteria. Then I will remove the enormous Tetra filter that came with this small aquarium, and my betta will have more space. And to clean the Azoo filter media, just take out the sponge and the biomax and rinse them in water from the tank to preserve your good bacteria.***Update 5/23/13 Make sure to use all the attachments that construct the tube. Don't make the mistake I made and fail to use the bottom extension piece of the tube. Without it, the opening is wide enough for a betta to get sucked into and killed, which is what happened to one of mine. So mad at myself for not noticing this preventable hazard. Each piece is included for a reason.***

***Ok another update 6/9/13...This should go without saying but make sure you clean the filter often, mine has developed gunk on the inside of the tube that I can't get out, the only way I might be able to reach in far enough is with a pipe cleaner. I wasn't cleaning it often enough. Cleaning it weekly would be good, but no less than every 2 weeks I would say.***

Kent Marine 00856 SeaSquirt Feeder

I love this squirt however, the little hole is just barely big enough to suck up thawed brine shrimp. I guess I didn't realize it's only best for fluid-based food only. In any case, it does suck up thawed brine and I can spot feed our gobies, corals and our anemone... the Gobie quickly figured out that there was FOOD on a stick and tends to attack the tip at feeding time. It won't suck up foods as large as frozen mysis (which was my only disappointment and lack of 5 stars since the description isn't clear) It's a great invention and totally beats the turkey baster feeding method!

I use this to spot feed mysis shrimp to my corals and some fish. Sometimes I have an issue with the mysis not fitting thru the tiny hole in the end of the seasquirt. That is the only downside to this. Otherwise its a great tool thats adjustable to whatever length you could possibly need for a tank.

Like others, I felt the hole was too small. But before i got too mad and broke it over my knee i decided to try making the hole just a little bigger by using a small drill bit and a cordless drill. It worked!! I used a drill bit that was just a tad bit bigger then the existing hole. Wasn't too hard to do and it worked well. Now i can suck up thawed frozen foods much better with no clogs.

I'm still not completely happy with this product although i am still using it. I feel like it never really gets clean because i hate taking it apart to really clean it after every use. Sometimes i feel it's a bit too big with too many parts. I have a 72g bow front and it is more then long enough for a tank that size.

It definitely does the job though and i haven't found anything better.

Hagen Marina Betta Waste Remover for Aquarium

It's a baster. A really large one. Gets the job done, but I think my betta gets terrified whenever it sucks up anything.

This product works really really well. I may look small in this picture but it's long about the size of a ruler and it's a really great cleaning tool for my betta tanks since it's only a half galloon and i don't want to change the water everytime i see my betta poops.

It's very very easy to use!

baby biOrb 4-Gallon Moonlight Aquarium with Light Fixture

I have one of these (the earlier version, no moonlight) in my office on my desk. I love it! I keep one gorgeous male betta in it and he is thriving. The pump is extremely quiet. I don't worry about keeping the pump above the water level and it works just fine. The provided gravel is part of the filtration system; you can cover it with large, shiny rocks but I don't mind how it looks on its own. I really enjoy the decorations you can use in the baby biOrb; I have the small grass ring that goes over the bubble tube in the center and several bright, weighted "plants". Haven't tried the fuzzy ball decorations yet but I will when I get tired of the current set-up. My betta seems very healthy and happy. I keep the water level lower than recommended so he has plenty of surface where he can get air. This has been a very peaceful, pretty addition to my office.

Looks great on a high coffee table and even the anti-fish husband gave it a compliment on how cool the night light looks.

Pretty low maintenance with 25% water changes weekly and fully changes one a month it almost looks after itself its so easy. You can probably reuse the filters if you clean them and add new media.

I added a heater, skipped the biorb stones for petshop cheaper ones, I decided on real plants, a betta, some red cherry shrimp, adding a top to the bubbler and a valve which means my betta has no problems with the current & his long fins (he is a halfmoon and currently flaring right next to the air vent the cheeky minx!).

One note for anyone buying this. Buy a valve for your pump or you may find the water siphons back into it when you switch it off $2.00 well spent!

Buy baby biOrb 4-Gallon Moonlight Aquarium with Light Fixture Now

Both packaging and website description are misleading. The photos don't show the air tubing and power cord which are unsightly and make it very difficult to place in your home. The external tubing and air pump unit are supposed to be placed higher than the water level! Also, the supplied media is unattractive and is the only media (gravel) they recommend using (it's brown). I definitely expected a better product for the money it cost. I sent my baby biOrb back..and really wouldn't recommend this product.

I transferred my betta into this tank after about a year in a much smaller (and cheaper) filtered tank and I am so happy I decided to get it. There isn't much light in my apartment so the moonlight feature stays on all the time, which is fine; but it looks especially beautiful at night. I decided not to buy biorb decorations or rocks just because I already had some and honestly they were a bit pricey for my taste anyways. This tank is also a bit expensive, but it's totally worth it. It not only looks great, but it is very functional. The filter works great and cleaning is easy. I've had the tank for about a month now and I would gladly recommend it to anyone looking to buy. I would definitely buy from Biorb again in the future.

Want baby biOrb 4-Gallon Moonlight Aquarium with Light Fixture Discount?

I've been very happy with this tank but the moonlight feature was a waste. Because I keep it pretty far away from windows, the regular daylight wasn't enough to trigger the switch from moonlight to daylight. I had to keep a lamp on to keep the tank light on, which is pretty silly. There is an option for manual on/off but then you give up the moonlight... either both lights are on, or neither. If you get enough light in the room, this could work for you. But the directions caution against keeping it in direct sunlight because the curve of the tank could cause a fire.

Coralife Energy Savers ACL53106 double Aqualight power center, 48-Inch, 4x65w

Great product!

It has nice power output for coral propagation in small tanks.

Was able to install it inside a hood. Use of a fan would be recommended due to temperature.

Good lights...except they dont last very long. I have had 2 so far in 8 years.

Naturally the bulbs have to be replaced but the internal wiring becomes hard and brittle and no longer functions.

I just bought 4 new bulbs...approx $25 each but they wont all work. So do I buy a whole new unit that will last maybe 3 years. Or change to a new product. But I know this one will fit. Hmmmmmm?? Maybe this is typical of all lights?

Jungle TT101W Jungle Lifeguard, 12-Tablets, 12 tabs

I bought this product as a last minute hope of saving my Pearl Gourami. The Pearl was extremely ill. It began with rocking back and forth (front to back, not side to side). Then eyes clouded, lesions formed and erratic darting around the tank began. The Pearl then was barely breathing, lying on it's side on the bottom of the tank. I dropped the treatment in anyway, even though she appeared to be a goner. I had picked it up from Walmart and was a little skeptical, but it was worth a try. In the morning she was upright, and actually ate a little. By day 3 of treatment, she was back to 90% and by day 5 of treatment (final day), you would never know she had even been ill. This product works better than any I've used.

But a word of caution: The main ingredient is essentially a broad disinfectant and will likely wipe out your good bacteria, destroying your bio-filtration. So keep an eye on ammonia levels. I also recommend if you have multiple tanks taking a handful of gravel from a healthy tank, putting it in some mesh or panty hose, and tucking it into the filter or gravel of the treated tank *after* treatment is complete and a water change has been done. This can help speed up the rebuild of good bacteria.

I don't know exactly what was in my fish thank that was making the water cloudy ... But, whatever it was these tabs cleared the water after the first day. I have a 15 gallon tank so I use three tabs per day.

I used them before from wal-mart but only had enough to treat for two days. I had also left the carbon filter in. It cleared the water up for about a week, but because I didn't follow the directions and didn't treat for 5 days, I think is why the water became cloudy again ...

I have three more days to treat the tank. I followed the directions this time. If the water does get cloudy again after following the directions with this treatment, I'll post an update. If it stays clear, you'll know it worked for me!

SpongeBob @ Home Tank

My opinion: save the $50 and peice together a five-gallon glass setup

We recently purchased this aquarium for our daughter who happens to be a Spongebob fan. For its purposes, I suppose it is ok, but be warned. It really can only function as a goldfish/betta aquarium as it has no heater. There is only about enough space for 2-3 small fish (but remember bettas are territorial and will kill each other), or one decent sized goldfish. The rocks that come with the kit are only about enough to cover the bottom, but definately leave some open spots. These are somewhat nit-picky, but there is a pretty big issue. The plastic/acrylic material this tank is molded in is too thin. We put approximately 3 1/2 gallons in the tank, and it cracked near the top spilling water. We promptly returned it and replaced it. The second one did the same thing. Even the lid feels cheap and flimsy. My daughter loves the aquarium however, and luckily the crack was on the backside, so a little duct tape cured the issue for the time being. Can't wait to get rid of this though.

453 nm Blue Cannon LED Pendant Light with Hanging Kit - 50w

Great Sps growth with 2 white, 2 blue over 100g tank about 2.5 feet above water surface (leaves lots of room over the tank). Because the white and blue light comes from different units, the light is not blended togetheryou can see blue or white only in areas of the tank. Very exciting neat look to me, but others think its unnatural looking. You can manipulate this by placement. 4 stars because price is too high IMO.

Aqua Clear 50 (200) Ammonia Remover 4.5 oz x 12pk

The local aquarium store proprietor said that nothing much could be done to control the ammonia in an aquarium short of water changes. I wasn't satisfied with this answer so went surfacing on the Web. Sure enough Aquaclear has this Ammonia Remover. It slides right into an existing hang-on filter and does the job. By actual ammonia testing, the levels are now rated at ideal. Thanks.

Advance Dog Training Pads

My cat was diagnosed with vestibular syndrome. Basically she couldn't keep her balance due to a disbalance in the inner ear. It can be caused from anything from an ear infection to a tumor to what most cases are: idiopathic. (In otherwords, no cause found.) Mostly happens to older dogs but sometimes cats. Luckily, she aced the other tests and ruled out anything major. Most idiopathic cases resolve in days to months.

The first week she couldn't co-ordinate herself to stand much less walk, so I used the Advance pads for her to lie upon while I was at work and couldn't help her to her litterbox. Since she couldn't do much but roll around to right herself I wasn't sure what to expect when I got home. I was very pleased that the pads are nice and big and quilted but was worried she'd still be dirty and ready for a bath.

These pads worked great.

They wicked the moisture away so well that she stayed dry and odor free even when laying directly on the pad. In fact, I could only tell there was pee in the pad when I picked it up and it was heavy (and no, it never ran from the pad even when I carried it by the corner). As for the poops, she'd sort of roll them up in it afterwards =)

She's doing really well and slowly getting better everyday. We still use the pads just in case.

During her rehab I ran out of Advance pads and bought Hartz on sale. Hartz might be ok for some uses but much smaller and not as thick. They didn't work for us. I ended up going back for the Advance.

I have used these for years and the really pick up the moisture. I prefer the ones that come wih blue pattern under the white because you can tell each time the pad is used.

Highly recommend. However, be awary what sid you are placing up as the back side is so good at not letting moisture through if it is up and not the paper side, the puddle will just sit there until you soak it up with paper towles.

Aqueon Aquarium Betta-Bow 2.5 Gallon Acrylic Aquarium Kit

This looks like a really good idea in theory, but in practice it leaves a little to be desired.

Pros:

It's big enough on both sides for the two bettas

5lb of gravel fills this up nicely

Set up is easy

Divider is sturdy construction

Cons:

Filter is noisy and the water simply travels over the cartridge rather than going through it like is a better idea

Don't put the gravel in first; put the divider in first

Hard to get fish into the filter side once divider is in place

Feeding panel is sort of small

Bettas have a VERY hard time with current of any type. The one on the left in my tank constantly gets caught in the filter output, causing him to flare his fins and gills in fear (bad thing). It also takes up roughly an eighth of the swimmable space in the left. I'd recommend just getting one betta and making it a community tank with compatible fish.

The construction of the tank in general is solid and well done for the price. I wish they included a different filter, and I'm going to get the TOM mini filter () to replace it.

Also, if you have aggressive fish, you'll want to find a way to make the divider opaque. Mine are fairly friendly towards one another, so it's not a problem for me, but they see each other and interact a lot.

I loved the look and design of this tank. It is in my kitchen, and looks great; however I think my 2 bettas hate it!! The "divider" is slatted and does not fit tightly to both sides of the tank. The 2 fish are constantly flairing up and ramming the divider at each other! I emailed the manufacturer to see if they offered a solid or alternative type divider for this tank, but they do not. After having my 2 bettas in the tank after a couple of weeks, I came home one day to find both bettas on the SAME side of the tank! There had obviously been a nasty fight, but they both were still alive in an exhausted state and both very tattered, torn and wounded. The tank has a hood, so I don't think they jumped over. It looks like somehow they were able to get thru "around" the edges of the divider.

The tank is marketed especially for 2 bettas, but during the past couple of weeks my 2 fish have been constantly agitated which eventually led to a fight! I am now looking for a new tank and medication to help my wounded fish!

I gave it one star...it looks nice, but is meant to house healthy fish and does not.

Again....pretty decor but poor design!

Simple design issue scared the crap out of us tonight. The light/hood is directly over the water with only a a cyclinder shaped cover for the light bulb itself. The moisture from the tank goes straight up and into the light fixture. I have had larger tanks all my life, but this was the first where the moisture would condense directly on the exposed electrical components. We bought this small starter set up for the baby's room to use it as a night light. Tonight, the baby monitor started indicating there was a problem....there was no electricity on the transmitting side of the baby monitor. Sure enough, the power had gone out. I restored the power and noticed the light fixture plug was ejected from the wall slightly..when I plugged it back in..bang and a flash! The fish are still alive, but to say the least I have unplugged this tank completely. I knew this design was an issue. Never seen a light dangling over the water and should have known better as water always condenses above and from time to time the fish can splash water up as well. If you must have this tank, get a surge protector...could save your life.

I bought this tank for my first betta, Blaze. The instructions for set up were well explained and thorough. I filled up the tank, used the included Betta Bowl Plus water conditioner, and set up the filter according to the instructions. Blaze seemed to be very happy in his tank. He swam freely and had a lot of energy. The filter is really quiet, and it never sucked Blaze in the inlet. The current was pretty strong, but he just avoided it most of the time. He lived in the tank happliy for about 6 months. The little feeding door was very conveinient. Then, one day after starting to appear lathargic, he was found dead :(. So, after having a fish funeral, i let the tank just sit there for awhile, to let the water circulate for a few weeks. Then, I took 50% of the water out, replaced the filter cartrige, and re conditioned it, then, put my new betta in, Spark. He acted the same way as Blaze and immediately started making a bubble nest. He is looking good so far! Along the way, i never had a problem with any component of this system, but, i did notice some condensation by the lightbulb during the summer, so i just kept the feeding door open, and i never had that problem again. I am very pleased with this tank. BTW: This tank is actually bigger in person, so the Mini Bow 1 might work just as well for most people.

-Looks nice and gives betta lots of room to swim

-Enough room for 2 bettas

-Nice design

-Good price for tank size

Cons

-Filter is too strong (I recommend taking filter out and doing weekly water changes)

-Filter is loud

The current created by the filter stressed my betta out and caused him to get sick. Therefore, i took him out for a couple of days for his fins to begin to grow back. Afterwards, I removed filter and just placed him in tank.

Aquatic Fundamentals 20/29/37 Gallon Aquarium Stand with Shelf

This aquarium stand works well. The construction is study enough for a 29 gallon aquarium and some books on the shelves. Very simple design, which I like.

Very well made and sturdy tank stand; I'm very impressed, specially for the price! Assembling it took about ten minutes tops, and was extremely simple.

I used it for my 25 gallon Aqueon 24" on the top shelf and also set my 3 gallon nano tank on the middle shelf with no problems so far! I couldn't be happier, and will buy again from the seller.

Potential buyer should note that the screws that hold the legs of the tank protrude on the top shelf , and might damage the bottom of a tank that is set on it. Likewise, the stand is NOT waterproof, mine bubbled up with in minutes of water being spilled on it!

Searenity Wall Mounted Aquariums DORADO in Brushed Aluminum

i have had this wall mounted aquarium for about 3 years now and i still love it as much as the day i saw it online! you must know that the dimensions given are totally accurate and i say that because it is very narrow width-wise. i mean, your hand will get stuff in there trying to clean it if they're too big. so don't expect an aquarium with a lot of depth, and be mindful while trying to dress it up with decor, certain rock pieces will NOT fit. but with the right pieces and beautiful fish, you have yourself one amazing looking wall piece :). enjoy!

The first (returned), and second one arrived damaged. I attribute this too poor packaging. It's an acrylic tank encased in MDF (medium density fiberboard). First step was to remove damaged hinged door on bottom of frame, both tanks arrived the same way. Second step was too seal all exposed fiberboard (MDF and water don't mix). Third step was to purchase all the extra items needed too make tank work. I replaced the cheesey filter and under the counter light fixture that were supplied with an under gravel filter and dual light fixture. You will also need gravel, heater, and a thermometer. If you like the bubbles in the tank shown in the picture you will also need a pump and air stoned. I recommend the pump as it will help oxygenate the water. I have had the tank set up for about 8 months now and the veneer on the frame has a few bubbles where water has come in contact with the MDF that I wasn't able too seal. I wouldn't recommend this tank for the newcomer. I gave it 3 stars because I have received alot of good comments on how it looks.

AquaTop Aquarium Heater - 100W

Lesson learned: You get what you pay for. The Aqueon 06106 Pro Heaters Submersible Aquarium Heater, 100-Watt works better (it was recommended to me) but it's almost twice the price on Amazon and even more at the pet store so I got this. I bought it the last week of June to treat ick in a tank. It was always about 3 degrees off but I dealt with it. I used it occasionally, I'd say I used this heater for a total of 15 days before it malfunctioned. I decided about a week ago to buy some tropical fish and I tried to get this to heat to a constant 77 degrees. Worked fine before bed, but I woke up the next morning to dead fish and a tank temperature of 86 to 88 degrees! It was HOT in there! I call the company and what do I hear?

"Maybe your thermometers are inaccurate." BOTH OF THEM?

"Is it hot outside your house?" Does it matter? The tank is INSIDE my house, and my room temperature is a steady 68 degrees. I live in the Arctic. No, it is not hot outside my house.

I don't know about you, but when I get asked stupid questions like that by people blaming everything but their product for a malfunction, I get kind of annoyed. I was promised a refund by the guy I called for support, then their returns department denied it because I've had the unit for almost 3 months. They said they do not issue refunds after 14 days, and if I want to use the warranty I have to pay to ship the item to them! For a $16 heater, that is not even worth my time or money paying to ship it back, let alone the cost of gas to drive to the post office! What kind of "customer service" is that? I'm sure they bet on people not bothering to pay return shipping for the warranty and instead buy a new one!

This heater was not accurate from the start. If it's going to kill my fish and I have to "re-calibrate it" (their suggestion) over and over again to get it to work temporarily, I am not going to use it and risk a repeat of fish casualties. I unplugged it, pulled it out of the water 10 minutes later and it burnt my hand it was so hot. It smelled strongly of burnt rubber. Unsafe. Do not buy Aquatop!!! Spend a few bucks more on a quality product.

Last time I am buying an Aquatop product of any kind!

I'm enjoying this heater so far.

I have a 20 gallon tall aquarium, it was a kit purchased from Petsmart that included a filter and heater. However, starting with the first day I was having problems with the included heater. No mater how many times I nudged the temperature nob down, it always found its way back to 82 degrees which is 4 degrees warmer than I wanted. Eventually I decided enough was enough and bought this 100W heater as a replacement.

So far everything works perfectly. I left it running for a day and saw that it too had the water at 82 degrees with the nob set at 78. Ugh, not again! However, this heater allows you to 'calibrate' the dial by lifting the red peg on top, and rotating the dial to the temperature your tank is at. I did so, changing it 82, then pushed the red peg back in, and turned the dial down to 78. Day 2 comes around, and all three thermometers agree the tank is now at 78! Perfect =)

Two weeks later, the temperature has been rock solid. It's February so the house is the coldest it will usually be throughout the year and it's performing perfectly, we keep the house at 65 during the night.

This heater is all black in color, and has an orange LED that turns on whenever the heater is on. The top features a dial with actual temperature numbers and not arbitrary numbers (for example 1-10). As mentioned above, if it is keeping a temperature other than what it says, you can adjust the dial and recalibrate it. Chances are you'll never change the dial again, but is useful in any case if you have the misfortune of getting sick fish, for example ich where treatment requires a rise in temperature.

This heater is fully submersible, even though it does have a max water line on it (I think this is for Canada regulations).

I will update this review if I ever have a problem with it, no updates means it is still working perfectly.

I will never again purchase any AquaTop (TruAqua) product.

I purchased the 100w heater with digital display over a year ago. Just past the one year mark, the heater stopped functioning properly. The thermostat got stuck on 90 degrees (normally 74). I sent the heater back to AquaTop with a letter documenting what had happened and requesting a replacement. Surely a company that warranties a product for 12 mos would not want a disatisfied customer with a useless heater that only lasted 14 mos. An email conversation began between Albert in the Returns Dept and myself. He stated he was unable to be of assistance. I responded requesting a new heater or a credit toward a heater purchase. No dice. I requested a supervisor and was refused one. Finally Albert conceeded by offering me half off the same model ($39.99 regular price, $20 for me). I agreed. When the new heater arrived, there was condensation inside the glass tube and the box was marked with a special sticker (possibly a return from another customer or a "refurbished" unit). I tried the heater out anyway. It did not even last a week before the display went to all 8's and the thermostat got stuck on an undesired temperature. I again emailed Albert for resolution. He asked me to send him evidence (photos) of the issues. I complied. He sent me an RMA number and UPS label and I returned the unit. I went online immediately to purchase a new heater. The exact same model on Amazon and on the TruAqua website was $14.99. He gave me a "deal" by charging me $20? Weeks later, after emailing Albert again, I received my $20 back. TruAqua aka AquaTop is difficult to do business with, rude to their customers (and I have been a loyal customer for YEARS), and they intentionally overcharged me for the item. No thank you!

Want AquaTop Aquarium Heater - 100W Discount?

This sucker cracked the first night I tried to use it. Maybe giving it 20 mins submerged in my tank wasn't enough time for the glass to adjust, but I maintain a half dozen tanks with 2 heaters each and this is the 1st time I've ever had one fail like this. It wasn't a spectacular fail that lit up the tank or killed all my fish (thank god) but a cracked glass shell and a failed unit none the less. And no, before you comment or ask if I just chucked it in the tank and fired it off, I didn't. Like I said, it was unplugged and submerged for a full 20 mins before I tried it. Then I plugged it in and approximately 30 to 45 sec later it cracked and I could see a faint trail of "tiny little bubbles" comeing from said crack. Unplugged and pulled the thing out and sure enough "done". I won't slam or badmouth Aquatop over this, I own plenty of their other products and am quite pleased with them(tank heaters included), just had a bad experience with this one.

Hartz Wardley Cichlid Flakes, 1.87-Ounce

I would give it five stars, except for the price. Our cichlids are very, very healthy and productive; at this time, we have more than 500 babies; well, can't really say it is all due to the good food, but it certainly helps. Shipping was on time; actually, early. I am happy with this product.

Impeller Assembly for PowerJet 900 Pump, the Max Flo 900 Pump, Water Garden Original 2000 Pond Pump

My PowerJet 900 pump seemed to be pretty weak for awhile. I opened up the cover & found my impeller missing half its vanes. The impeller disassembles into several parts, but I couldn't replace only the parts that were broken.

The new impeller assembly dropped right in, I screwed down the cover, got my pump back to its rated strength. No muss, no fuss.

I am glad I could find a replacement part in these days of disposable everything & planned obsolescence.

It worked great, glad it was a great product to keep my good pump running. will purchase this product again

Coralife 08623 T5 Flourescent Lamp, 6-Watt, 10,000K, 9-Inch

This bulb is so short lived that you might as well buy a whole new lamp. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Easy set up.

Quality of light is nice and bright.

Doesn't last as long as I hoped.

Will buy more.
