The temperature controller keeps it within 2 degrees and seems to work very efficiently.Finnex is my go-to brand for heaters, having purchased and used many of them for breeding and raised saltwater fish plus all of their live feed.

Super Pet My First Home Tank Topper

I'm really surprised that large chain stores don't carry this product. This is the best housing solution for Syrian hamsters we've found in years of looking. Combine this with a $10 glass aquarium and its the cheapest as well. Plastic "...trail" products are not durable, are a pain to assemble and hard to...

I purchased four of these for my betta fish. It's a great size tank. Very attractive but with most desk top filters the motors make a little too much noise. I live in a studio so I need it quiet. I had to go through the trouble of returning them all.I upgraded to a 16 gallon Aqueon bow front tanks (purchased...

I did not order this terrarium from Amazon.com but I do own this specific one and I love it! PROS: My pacman frog has called this terrarium home for about 2 years now. It is very beautiful and alluring. The terrarium is made very well and the glass doors are very convenient. Decorating the terrarium is actually...
Vibra-Flo® Air Pump; Mini

I'm using it in a 10 gallon tank and it perfectly fulfills its purpose. It aerates the tank, but doesn't create too much of a current which was my intent. With bigger, stronger pumps the current was bubbling too much like boiling water. Regarding the noise it's like any other pump. I've never had one that's quiet....

Over the past few months I have added pressurized CO2 to two of my planted aquariums, and the result has been significant plant growth, however, quite a bit more algae growth as well.As such, green water has become an issue when it never was before.The pressurized CO2 goes a long way to adding to this problem,...

Moved from an apartment to a house and my 25 foot python would not reach to the new sink. Bought the 20 foot extension and all is good.It hooks up easy and works.It's an extension hose. What else can you say? LOL! Seriously though, if you're still cleaning your aquarium the old fashioned way, stop. Get a Python....

Our red tailed shark absolutely loves this log. It lets him come and go both ways and keep an eye out thru the extra hole, he did swim out that way once to check it out. It looks very natural and is a perfect fit in our 56 gal aquarium. If you place it towards one end of the aquarium, you can use the reflection...

I have this ornament in a 10 gallon freshwater tank. I prefer an ornament to a the focal point amongst plants and driftwood, but not overbearing. I would not personally recommend it for a smaller size tank, as I feel it would be a little too large. That being said, I'm very happy with it. I was looking for...

These must do some good since every time I take it out, it is full of goop. I can usually do a rinse out for one time but the next time I replace it. I like buying the three pack since it is less expensive and more convenient to have a couple extra on hand when I'm doing a water change. This single pack doesn't...
ClearFree® Premium Undergravel Aquarium Filters

I really like undergravel filters for filtration. It's old school tech and if you go with some plants, it will fertilize them. I've had systems setup where I didn't have to change water for 6 months because of the balance between plants and the filter. Just topping off. Just beware of some of the colored...

I got a magnetic cleaner and it scratched the bajeebus out of my tank. One packet was more then enough to remove all of the scratches. I didn't think it would be possible to get them out. While I don't think it would do much good for deep gouges, it did an excellent job of removing small surface ones.Scratches...

The pump sent is not the pump pictured. Also, the end of the pump wont stay on the unit. Steer clear of this one...Bought this as a replacement for a small fountain. The rise is about 2 feet, and I have to keep the pump dialed back to about 20% flow to keep it from going too fast, so there's plenty of power....
