SpongeBob Pirate Tank

Ok first off the tank is no where near 3/4 gallons and it does not state on the box what size it is. Its really small the back is open at the top so if you get water in it your 3D Spongebob is ruined. Its a cute tank over all but not for the price it wont last long.

I got this for my little sister, its an ok buy, its nit so big, butIts but enough for a beta fish , ir in my case u got her 3 guppies, and put in a mini filter. The background is made of cardboard, so if u get it wet it will be ruined.

But is a cute buy, she loved it

Coral Sun Bulb for Aquariums

Zoo Med Coral Sun Actinic 420 Coral Bulb T8 17 Watts, 24-Inch

if you own i fixture for these bulbs, then you know they just aren't that bright. so don't expect these to make your hard corals to grow. it's not the bulb, you just need more power, or a t5.

Exactly what i ordered and it came in great condition. It looks so good in my tank. makes everything beautiful blue.

I have a 120-gallon freshwater aquarium with a few large shubunkins and a mix of artificial and live plants. The aquarium was lit by a pair of 24" 8000k fluorescents in separate 30" hoods, set end-to-end over the length of the 5-foot long tank. I purchased a pair of these ZooMed Coral Sun Actinic bulbs primarily to provide some supplemental lighting for the plants. I installed them in an additional pair of 30" hoods. The addition of the blue light output from the ZooMed bulbs to the existing 8000K fluorescents, really made a difference in the overall color balance. The gravel and plants took on a more natural, less yellowish look and the colors of the fish were also enhanced. So, in addition to helping the plants, the aesthetics were much improved as well. In the evening, I shut down the 8000K bulbs and just leave the actinics on for awhile before turning everything off for the night. The ZooMed actinics provide a cool moonlight effect when used by themselves. Great product and highly recommended for my application.

Vibran-Sea Ferndale Silk-Style Aquarium Plant, Extra- Large 18-19 tall, Aqua Marine

wow what a beauitful plant ,looks much better than the picture,adds nice color to my tank....my fish(cichlids) love it also

This is my first silk-like aquarium plant. After having it in my tank for over a half year, it still looks terrific. Looks like it will do well. It's much more attractive than my previous aquarium "plants" that were all plastic.

Deluxe Bubble Disk® Aerating Aquarium Ornaments

PENN PLAX 5-Inch Bubble Disk Air Pump Accessories, Large

I hooked this air stone up to a 100 ga Whisper air pump along with the 48" flexible air tube. This puts out an enormous amount of bubbles for its size. I actually had to crimp the tube a bit to reduce the amount of air because the bubbles it was producing were dislodging my plecos from their perches under a stump. Definitely worth the purchase and it makes for an amazing show of bubbles under any decorations or amongst plants.

I ordered this bubble disk at the same time I ordered one of those long rod bubble stones that sticks to the tank. This bubble disk has lasted much longer. It's still bubbling while the other has given up the ghost. Only down side is that it won't lay flat at the bottom of my tank. My fish keep removing any rocks I use to anchor it down. (I've got large gold fish.) But even so, it does not come to the top of the tank. It stays at the bottom, just not flat.

I have a 75 gallons tank and wanted to give it better oxygenation, so I started looking for an aerator. I had to think a lot before deciding which size to get, and in the end I bought the 3" one. As others said, it produces an enormous amount of bubbles for its size, and it's perfect for my vertical aquarium, so considering its power, you might as well consider that the size is utterly important, depending on the size of your tank; I believe the 3" will work great for 100-gallons-and-less aquariums.

The only disadvantage is that it needs some weight to stay down, I had to tie it to the bottom. Besides that, it's perfect, and having it for a week with 6 ten-inches goldfishes who usually make a mess everywhere, it was pretty much clean.

This little airstone 5" is wonderful for my koi ponds and smaller 90 gallon aquariums. I use drilled slate disk from the fish store to anchor the air stone any place I want, they are cheap, and sold for anchoring plants. I just run the airline through the hole and drop the airstone any place I want in either ponds or tanks, and believe me without the slate disk, these airstones would be moved around by my koi. Thanks for carrying a great product!

I put these into 1 gallon bubble buckets and they performed GREAT!

Lots of bubbles! They do not have weights though, so they float around a lot. No biggie for farmers but fish people might not like it.

Nova Extreme T5 X2 for Freshwater 24Inch

I have one of these for my 20 gallon and my 55 gallon tanks.... they are AWESOME.

You cannot beat the value of this light. Many companies will sell the same thing for hundreds more. If you're on a budget, this is the thing.

The light fixture comes in different options. Be sure to match it to your needs. I'm freshwater, so no actinic. Mine has the grow light (pinkish), and the full spectrum (white/bluish). The color temperature etc. of this fixture is comparable to higher end setups, for much cheaper. I've been running the 55 gallon setup since I bought these, same with the 20 and haven't replaced a bulb once.

The power drain is minimal if you have em on a timer, and the output is great. There are, of course, better lights, but for the money, this is good for budget minded folks like me.

This has nice authentic detail, but has a strong unpleasant odor. Don't think I would put it in an aquarium with live fish I was just using for a model for science class had nice oral disk detail.

HDE LCD Fish Tank Thermometer

I saw this thermometer going for $1.00 plus about $2.50 shipping on a popular bidding website. I didn't really trust it to be a real thermometer at that price. So, I looked it up on Amazon.com. For the less than $6.00 including shipping, I decide to pay a couple of bucks more from Amazon and try it. It came in the mail this afternoon.

When I pulled the thermometer out of the package it was set to Celsius. I switched it over to Fahrenheit and it began reading about 82º in my house. I know the air temperature is around 76º. I waited for five minutes as it drifted further and further down but it never got down to what I believe the temperature actually is. It settled in around 78º. I figured a 2º variance isn't bad. Then, I put it in the fish tank. It immediately dropped down to what I believe the temperature of the tank is, according to the cheap floating thermometer I have in the tank. Given that it's designed to read water temperature, that was good enough for me.

I put it on the tank I plan to use it on and I'm looking at it now. The suction cups are powerful, one for the probe and one to attach the thermometer to the tank. I like the digital read out because it's much easier to read than the colored water in the analog thermometers. I can glance at it from a distance and know the temperature of the tank. Not such a big deal right now in summer. But, it'll be great to know in the winter. I now trust that it's fairly accurateaccurate enough anyway.

There's an on-/off switch on it. I'm not sure that's necessary. These type of devices should run a long time on the watch battery it runs on. The battery is replaceable. Turning it off is difficult. The switch recesses and has to be pressed way in and held in to shut it off. At first I thought the switch was broken. But, I used a pen and held it in and it went off. Turning it on was much easier. There's no risk of turning it off accidentally.

I'll report back if/when it breaks. I think with things like this if they work out of the box, they'll work for a while. There are no moving parts. So, I think this is a great deal. It's got to be as accurate as the $3-$4 floating devices you buy at the Local Fish Store. And, if you want, you can hide the display completely, camouflage the probe and make it virtually invisible.

**update**It's been over six months since I bought the first of these. I now have four on four different tanks. They have been rock solid reliable and the temperature reading seems to be accurate matching the set point on my heaters. I am extremely happy with these thermometers.

After getting tired of squinting my eyes to see the temperature of my alcohol thermometer in my reef tank I decided to try a digital version. Like the other reviewer mentioned my digital LCD thermometer arrived in the mail with the power turned on. No big deal. I wish the suction cup holding the probe was black instead of clear like the other reviewer mentioned because a clear suction cup submerged under water appears white. No big deal for me either as I hid my thermometer probe & suction cup behind some live rocks. So far everything works great as I just turn my LCD thermometer on occasionally to check the temperature of my reef tank & then turn it off. Sometimes I just leave it on longer as I still maintain my alcohol thermometer on the other side of the aquarium that I can occasionally still read when it isn't covered by algae. Occasionally I noticed that the thermometer turns on by itself, but that is no big deal to me. Recommended as it generally works great & you can't beat the price considering most digital aquarium thermometers that I see in local stores costs so much more.

Update 4-2-13. I been leaving my LCD thermostat with the power on for the last month & had no problems with it so far. No problems with it turning off by itself. Been so reliable that I removed my standing thermometer.

This thermometer shipped fast and works great! I was recently at a local pet store and the same thermometer was double the price. I would recommend buying it.

I guess I got a defective one. It's stuck with a reading H (degree symbol) F. Tried powering off and on to no avail. Also, impossible to take battery out. Didn't work for me so I can't recommend it.

The HDE aquarium thermometer fluctuates too much to be of any use. The temperature updates about every 30 seconds. Mine has varied from 64 degrees to 110 degrees (really?) within a matter of minutes. In this case, the old adage applies...you get what you pay for.

Penn Plax Dora Deco Aquarium Decorating Kit

I bought this for my 3year old for her birthday. She wanted a pet fish so I got her a Betta. I expected the Dora figurine to be bigger that what it was but after I set the tank up, it really didnt look that bad. I set the ornaments up in 3.5 gallon half moon shaped aquarium and everything fit fine. The only thing I didnt use was the poster, it seemed pretty useless to me and I also forgot to put the shells on the string included in the package so I had to bury the shells in the gravel because they do float!Other than that the main goal was accomplished with this gift, My daughter loves it!

Pennplax Double Back Roll Aquarium Background, 30/75-Gallon

this was not two sided like it says and the picture on it was neither of what it shows here... I would return it if i wasnt so lazy

One side has a scene, the other is blank and is NOT as tall as is advertized. Would not recommend!

Buy Pennplax Double Back Roll Aquarium Background, 30/75-Gallon Now

I was terribly disappointed in this. Not as it appears online. I put it in back of the tank and my tank is crystal clear.....could not even make out the blue color. Not worth the money. Plus there was a crease down the middle. I had to send it back for a refund. I ended up buying a boulder scene at my local pet supply store for five dollars.

Sometimes it's hard to see things as they really are online. I would not recommend this product .

The description said it had two backgrounds for the price of one. Its supposed to have an aquatic scene on one side and a shalescape on the other side. The one I got only had one scene and the other side was plain blue.

Aquarium Hood Black Fluorescent - 16 Inch to 72 Inch

The product looked nothing like the picture provided. I ordered a 72 inch hood. Although the hood was 72 inches, it required a 48 inch bulb. There is no bulb included, and it is also missing the adjustable knob that is shown in the picture.

This is a 72" Hood with a 48" light inside. This left my 125 gallon aquarium a little darker on the ends. I wished the seller would be honest with there descriptions, this is not the first seller/company I came across with this review about miss leading information. The picture shows the light fixture going to almost the end of the hood, but reality their is a 12" empty space on either end. Their were no reviews on this one at the time I ordered the light or I may have looked into the ones at the pet store more. But as you can see now I'm not the first person to complain about this. The light is kind of cheap itself, and never seen an aquarium light without a ground. But the price was at least right. I maybe would of even bought 2 of these if they combined the shipping, and had know it was not a 72" light. Mine came nicely packaged and had the light bulb with it. I'm not sure what the other reviewer was talking about with the adjuster, but did not see anything about or place to make adjustments. Shipping was extra fast, 3 days before the estimated delivery time frame. I would by from this seller again. Maybe all the lights are like this now, I noticed in the pet stores there 36" light is really a 24" light but states this in big writing on the boxes. So to the seller please descried your items correctly, in this case it could have made you another sale.

So again to the readers THIS IS A 48" LIGHT INSIDE A 72 HOOD
