Nice quality. These are perfect for Bettas, since plastic ones can tear their fins up. I've never found soft plants at such a low price. These are excellent.

Aquarium Biochemical Sponge Filter Fish Tank Air Pump XY-2821
So far the XY-281 seem's to be working just fine.I have it in my 10 Gallon community tank with my Male Betta (Fireball) and 3 pencil fish and 3 cherry barb's plus one miniature pleco.I also have a Aqua-tech 5-15 power filter running on this tank that just wasnt cutting it.Now just about 6 hours after installing the XY-281 in my tank it seems to have cleared up the water making it much clearer.One more thing the quality of this filter cant be beat for $3.99 shipped.I might buy 2 or 3 more for my other tanks.Also this filter doesnt require an airstone which is great
Updated 02/17/2013.. I just ordered 2 more of these.They seem to work so well im gonna put one in my 5 gallon tank and remove the Aqua-tech 5-15 power filter that is knocking my female Betta all over the place

Aqueon 06092 Water Flow Control Valve Assembly
This flow valve seems to be of a very good quality, except for the plastic faucet adapter piece (for indoor faucets), which will not withstand frequent use. This is not a problem for me, since I connect the flow valve to a standard outdoor/garden faucet. If you will need the adapter, do yourself a favor and get a brass adapter at your local hardware store (couple of bucks).The flow valve connects itself to a faucet and uses the power of the water flow to produce a suction effect. It comes ready for you to connect your own flexible vinyl tubing (bring the flow valve to your local hardware store to make sure that you buy the correct diameter tubing). Connect your gravel filter to the other end of the vinyl tube and you have made a complete water changer. A "ball" valve just before the gravel filter needed for you to control suction and water flow (you will also use this device to supply water back to your aquarium). Complete water changers from Aqueon or Python run for $35 $45 depending on the length of the tubing.
Unlike the Python flow valve, where you have to rotate the bottom part to switch between draining and filling modes, the Aqueon flow valve has a lever (switch) that you need to move. I like the mechanism of the Aqueon flow valve better. Let's see which one lasts longer.
Unscrewing the bottom (drainage) piece reveals another connector for vinyl tubing. I suppose that it is possible to connect a draining tube for those like me that do not want to leave dirty fish water on the garage floor. The problem is that the pressure cap needed to complete this setting is missing. I called Aqueon and the technical support person that took my call could not confirm if it was possible to connect the drain tube and told me that the cap needed (identical to the one provided for the tube that goes to the gravel filter and to the aquarium) is not sold separately. That means that I would have to buy another complete flow valve, just for the cap, to complete my setting! --If someone has a better idea that can help me ideal my setting, please let me know.

Even though this is a replacement piece, it is a replacement piece for a reason. This part will break often so long as it is made of plastic and has threads. This is my 3rd one in the two years I have owned the kit. I love the kit, but having it break is just time consuming.Read Best Reviews of Aqueon 06092 Water Flow Control Valve Assembly Here
I have been very gentle when screwing the adapter onto my faucet, yet last week when I got it out to change the water, the adapter had cracked into two pieces. I contacted Aqueon customer service via their website, and asked if they had a warranty to replace the adapter. They promptly mailed me a new adapter for free. I think they should change the construction of the adapter to be better quality, but their customer service is excellent.Want Aqueon 06092 Water Flow Control Valve Assembly Discount?
The water changer idea and principle is wonderful. However, due to poor quality in the materials, this piece continually breaks. No matter how carefully I handle it, I end up having to buy a new one several times a year. I would be willing to pay more for better quality and less breakage. Every time it breaks and I have to buy a new one, I have to wait several days for delivery, and therefore several days to clean the tank.Save 14% Off

Hagen Exo Terra Plastic Terrarium Plant
The leaves were a lot smaller than I had anticipated but being that i got the Large, it was a lot of plant. The only problem with it was the suction cup. it didnt want to stick at first and it was really annoying but (it may sound gross) after applying some saliva its actually kind of difficult to remove. my cornsnake absolutely loves it
Carib Sea ACS00110 Crushed Coral for Aquarium, 10-Pound
I was having PH crash problems in my fish tank when we moved to a town with a different tap water supply...for some reason I couldn't get my goldfish water to maintain a PH above 6.4!!! My poor babies :( I tried every chemical known to man, and it's a miracle my fish survived. I finally found a website online that suggested coral as a PH buffer. I put about 1/4 c in a hanging mesh bag into the water and keep it there 24/7...and now the PH is 7.4. I have a 14.5 gallon tank. I heard that mixing the coral straight into the substrate causes nitrate issues down the road when it breaks down, which is why I keep it in a bag. I can't support whether that is true, but my method has worked just fine so far, and I've replaced it once in the last year. I highly suggest trying this if you have the same issue like me!Save 50% Off
