Fish & Aquatic Supplies Tetra Half Moon Aquarium Kit With Led

Great and very unique looking aquarium. Perfect view from all angles when against the wall. The included LED light looks great, especially the blue LEDs to mimic moonlight at night. The light is definitely not powerful enough for growing freshwater plants though, as I had to upgrade to 3 compact florescent lights, which also meant not being able to use the included acrylic top any longer. In all a great aquarium, that looks beautiful, and is perfect as is for a fish only aquarium. Surprisingly I found it way cheaper at Petsmart though; very rare to see anyone beat Amazon's prices anymore.

Aqueon 06232 Siphon Vacuum Aquarium Gravel Cleaner with Bulb, 10-Inch

This is made for 15-55 gallon tanks. Unfortunately the product description doesn't state that so I found out when the package arrived and read it in big bold letters across the front of the package.

Hope that pertinent info helps someone else not buy the wrong size vacuum!

As far as the construction of the product it looks great and bulb vacuums really do make cleaning the tank half the work.

Although I did not buy this from Amazon, my resident shopping "store", I did buy it from a pet store. I have had an aquarium for 15 years and siphoning out the water was a chore, especially getting the water to flow at first. This is simple and works everytime. There is only one drawback. The intake tube and the tubing itself come apart when moving it around in the aquarium. I rememdied that easily by going to the hardware stoe and buying a clamp. Problem solved. Great product!!!

This is a great product for me, but did come with a learning curve not for the product/siphon itself, but how to make it work with my tank and its placement. I have a 75gal and a 100gal fish tank that are in my living room (not near a sink). This worked very well, but as someone said before, it moves water quickly, and without help, you have to stop the suction to dump the bucket. I bought some tubing at the local hardware store and a tubing adapter, attached these to the end of the siphon tubing put it out a window and now it waters (and fertilizes my plants as I clean). My siphon also got rocks stuck in it, but doesn't seem to pose any issues, just rattles and annoys me. Last but not least, I also had to turn the siphon bulb the other direction for it to properly work. Easy fixes, and now is a DREAM come true in helping clean two large tanks by myself.

This is an outstanding product for doing water exchanges and gravel cleaning with ease. Before I always would siphon using standard tube and starting the flow with my mouth haha, no more! Very simple to use, water flow is ample for my 40ish gallon tank. Tube length/diameter's work great. Good value and would definitely recommend.

Product works great. For the people who say they can't get it working try this:

I believe the siphon bulb is one way, because it wasn't working for me at first until I flipped it around.

Also, start by filling the vacuum tube with water and holding it up until the hose is filled. Then re-submerge the tube and pump the bulb to start the siphon.

I had never vacuumed a tank or siphoned anything before (I have a 60 gallon tank) and was able to use this without problems.

PondCare Spring and Autumn Pellet Fish Food, 9 Ounce

The goldfish in our pond like this food, although in comparison they go CRAZY for the summer version -PondCare 181B Summer Staple Koi Fish Food Premium Pellet, 41-Ounce -which I give them when the water's warmer. Read tje instructions on the bag to see when to feed each pellet type. Previous years we used a regular goldfish flake food, and always had algae problems (it never occurred to me there might be a different food for pond fish versus aquarium fish). I'm not sure if this food is what's helped so much this year, but we now have a crystal clear pond and apparently super happy fish. I know they're happy, because this year I could actually see them swimming!

Aqueon 06227 Siphon Vacuum Aquarium Gravel Cleaner Extender

First of all I thought this vacuum was going to be great because of the telescoping feature, well, when you try to stick the end in the gravel, the telescoped part just goes right back into the tube, and when you do manage to get it in the gravel, it just sucks up an entire tube-ful of it and then doesn't pick up anything else, and the gravel won't come out. I had to stop the siphon, and get the gravel out, then restart it again, and immediately the tube filled up with gravel again.

Howdy folks:

I do not recommend this product. it picks gravel up and they get stuck in the end. constantly having to pick rocks out of siphon. will work good for changing water though.

Marineland Rite Size Cartridge

I have been looking for aquarium filters for some time for a 6 gallon tank. But everywhere I went--I could not locate them. I was beginning to think that I had bought an aquarium that was out dated. Thank goodness I was able to find them on . I was able to change my dirty filter and it works fabulously! My tank is protected and I now have happy fish! Thanks again .

I often end up with 'inherited' pets. I've never been a big fan of fish, but my mom decided she was to old to keep up with the care of her two cory catfish, so I ended up with them. I prefer animals that can tell you when they are hungry; but decided to make the effort of owning fish as painless as possible for me and them.

I wanted a tank that required minimal cleaning so purchased the 10-gallon Marineland Eclipse, and some extra filters. I do love this system. About once a month, I rotate out about a quarter or 1/3rd tank of the water; and the filters do the rest. The tank stays clean, the fish seem to like the extra space. I'm very happy. It's made owning fish, mostly painless. Now if I could just figure out how much to feed them on the regular basis, I'll be set.

If you have a five gallon hex, this is the only filter selection you get. The length of effectiveness depends on the condition of your tank, number of fish you keep, etc. If you have a light tank load, you can rinse these at least one time and reuse. I am able to rinse after two weeks and replace after roughly four to six weeks. Use it much beyond that and you just make your maintenance and water changes more of a workload. As a point of reference I am doing partial water changes two or three times a week and am able to keep very clear water. Marineland is decent product line and I have had no troubles with these filters. I use in conjunction with a biowheel, which is crucial to maintaining healthy condition of your water. My only "con" is that you can only purchase in quantities of one or three. I wish there were a discount economy pack say of ten or twelve. Finding these in stock at your local store could be hit or miss over buying them through amazon. Keep your eye on the prices as I have seen them fluctuate. You should be able to get the three pack for eight or nine dollars if you get it at the right time. I've seen them go for over $11 for the same thing so if you get a good price and have more than one tank or just want to stock up and not worry about reordering, get them at the better price while you can.

Marineland cartridges are very easy to use. They leave the tanks clean and the fish happy. I use several different sizes for my several tanks. This review is for the size Z. I have a 5 gal hex and the cartridge cleans the tank effectively. It is a no mess no fuss filter set up. One just lifts out the dirty cartridge and inserts the new cartridge.I have fish, live plants, and snails in the tank. The tank needs a filtration system to remove the fish and snail pollution for lack of a better word. The water remains balanced with their use. So much easier to use than other types where one has to measure charcoal, filter floss, and etc. I suppose I shouldn't but I extend the life of them a bit by rinsing them out in between using a new filter. The charcoal isn't the same after the first use, but the filtration of particles remains good. I find them actually a lot less money to use than a regular charcoal, and filter media filter to use.

Jardin Plastic Fish Tank Aquarium Plant Décor with Ceramic Base, 5-Piece, Red Green

I waited weeks for this to get in stock because I knew I wanted this color combination, and it did not disappoint. These are beautiful in the water. When you turn your tank light on they look absolutely amazing. If you have a red ornament in your tank like I do, it really makes things pop.

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.
