Hydor Centrifical Pump 100 All-Purpose Pump for Aquariums and Terrariums 100 GPH - Original Pico Ev

Hydor Centrifical Pump 100 All-Purpose Pump for Aquariums and Terrariums 100 GPH - Original Pico Evolution 400It's hard to tell when this is on "high." The first time I used it, it was ok considering what I spent. I tried to use it today thou, the motor is making noise, but no water is moving. NEXT

Really Small pump, I was shocked. It does work well, and still has the same flow volume after one month of use. Use 1/2 " OD connections

Does the job. Easy to use. Hasn't given me any problems so far. I use this in my 3 gallon pico salt water tank with a maroon clown and frogspawn coral.

I upgraded my Fluval Spec 3 pump with this one. It fits perfect and it is putting a great current through my tank.

100 GPH for my 2.8 gallon tank is awesome.....Fluval should put this in, instead of the cheap one they put in.

Want Hydor Centrifical Pump 100 All-Purpose Pump for Aquariums and Terrariums 100 GPH - Original Pico Ev Discount?

If being made in Italy is supposed to make this product better than it doesn't.

I bought 2 of these because they're cheap and low flo for a small refugium and other project.

One arrived non functioning, it spins but no water movement which is very odd.

The second one is working but every now and then the pump makes some loud noise like air is stuck in it but there's no venturi. It was cleaned recently due to the noise but didn't fix it.

Their pumps are pretty mediocre, overpriced, and fragile.

I'd bought these and larger Hydor pumps due to a sale and I'd figure I try this brand.

I will go back to Marineland MJ pumps that I had no issues with.

I've used this product for several years each time I do a water change in my 12,000 gal. koi pond. It's an excellent product. My only suggestion for Amazon would be to provide it in a larger amount. I bought this locally, in gal. jugs, until the source went out of business. I'll definitely buy again as I use quite a bit!

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMFA50 Sinking Ceramic Betta Log

Zoo Med Laboratories AZMFA50 Sinking Ceramic Betta LogAfter reading other reviews, my expectations of what was going to come in the mail were lowered, however I was very surprised when the product came. It was larger than I thought and our male Beta fish took to it instantly and I see him swimming actively engaging with it now. When resting, he definitely likes to go inside and just sit there. The quality is also very good (but of course I don't buy a lot of these types of things).

I have the shyest Betta in the universe, so I was looking for a little cubby it could hide himself in. I have tried using other accessories and plants, but my Betta immediately took to this Ceramic Log. He was a little apprehensive at first, but once he got used to it, he was swimming in and out of it like a happy puppy. Great size, and perfect for Bettas.

Of course I stuck my finger inside to make sure it was smooth, but there are some sharp edges on the inside of the log. I love my fish too much to put it in his tank. Pretty bummed...I was really hoping he would love this, but I'm just not willing to chance it.

I wouldn't buy this again if given the chance. My betta doesn't even use it. Looks phoney and artificial. Avoid.

Cladophora aegargropila "Marimo Ball" Live Algae Ball

Cladophora aegargropila 'Mini Marimo Ball' Live Aquarium Algae BallThe Marimo Ball came during cold weather, but it was shipped thoughtfully and well with a little heat pack, so it was in great shape when I got it.

I love this thing. It's a lovely shade of green, and it's nice to look at in my tank.

I ordered the medium (the only size available) but it was definitely much bigger than I was expecting. Medium is a relative term so I had no idea what I was going to get. But my Marimo Ball must be maybe even 2" in diameter. As I said it's very healthy, green on all sides.

I've had it for a month, I think, and it's just peacefully doing its thing.

I did have a problem when I got it. My mollies thought it was a snack bar. They went to town on it. I didn't want to take it out of my tank, so I got a clear, 3 or 4 inch tall, plain 6 oz drinking glass (sort of like a highball glass only a bit rounder) and put that in the tank then set the Marimo Ball in the glass. So I can see it but the fish don't go in the glass too often so it's not getting eaten.

The problem with my little trick is that food gets in there, and the Marimo Ball doesn't roll around on its own. But it didn't roll around in the tank anyway, so it's not that big of a deal. I have a special long handled wooden spoon that I use to plant plants and arrange things. So I just sort of stir over the Marimo Ball with the spoon and create a little vortex to clean out the food from underneath, and turn the ball to a different side to get some light.

It's definitely worth the money for what you get. It's lovely and peaceful and a beautiful green. And it's really easy to take care of. Highly recommended. :)

The algae ball I received was even bigger and healthier than I had hoped for! It makes a great addition to my tank, and I look forward to ordering more live plants from this seller again.

I'm really happy with what I received they are exactly as promised in the description which was "1.5 inch diameter". They are a nice dark green and they were also packed well so they made it here to me without any problems.

Perfecto Manufacturing Full Flo Hood 30" Black

Perfecto Manufacturing Full Flo Hood 30' BlackI bought this for my 29 gallon and I think if I had to go back, I may have bought the dual aqueon hood. I have just started to get into plants and in the front where the feeding door is there is a long dark spot. Its bulky, hard to handle and if you want to move/get into the tank you have to remove the entire lid. I have scratched up my arms pretty good when I reach into the tank through the feed door.

pro:

good for simple aquarium for simple plants

Covers the top of the tank well and cut out for the filters

Ample space for the feed door

Con:

Hard to handle with one hand

needs another bulb for high light planting

bulky/wasted space on design

I'm very impressed with this hood. I bought this for a 29g tank that measures 30" X 13". This is a universal fit hood that sits on top of the frame (instead of sitting inside on the ledges). There are several plastic nubs that you break off depending on the brand so this seats perfectly. My hood hung over the back about 1cm but that was ok as it still covered everything and the back is hidden anyway.

I'm impressed with this hood as it's very high quality. The plastic is nice and strong and everything is well made. Everything works well. The light fixture is separate from the cover so you can remove it when changing the water. There is a strip of plastic in the back that can be cut for cord and air tubing access. I waited a long time to get a 30" hood because they're pretty expensive and I'm very glad I got this deal. This is my second Perfecto brand hood and I like their hoods very much.

Very happy with this hood and light. Good deal for the price and fits my aquarium perfectly. And very fast shipping, I had it in Hawaii in less than a week.

If you are looking for a replacement hood/light that will not break the bank then this is the one for you.

Good quality and fits perfect, what makes it easy to install is that it sit on top on the base.

Hagen Fluval LED Strip Aquarium Light

Hagen Fluval LED Strip Aquarium Light, 48-InchI bought this at my local Petco for a Fluval Spec V to replace the pee poor lighting included in Fluval's Spec V kit. It's a perfect fit after you jimmy off the Spec V's pee poor lamp's holder .

This lamp is not toy LED's as I found with the Spec V . It's very well made and the light output is not going to take your tank to a high light C02 fed daily mess of never ending fussing but will let you grow low light plants for sure. Fluval claims 7500K but to my eye looks like 1800k + .

I like that the unit's LED's are covered with a splash plate , many LED's are open and well on an open tank this can be a problem.

Heads up AMAZON it was cheaper at my local PetCo with TAX ! I love you Amazon but keep up with what crap sells for.

Need to add the rests for the end of the lamp are not clear as in the PIC but black. NO PROB for me but ADA people may not like it !

I have been a tropical fish hobbyist since the early 1980's. I keep strictly fresh water tanks and now I currently have a 265 gallon setup with african cichlids. Not having live plants and not needing any special lighting requirements for coral, etc.., I just wanted an led fixture to brighten up the tank. I already had two six foot flourescent fixtures with four bulbs in each fixture. I was able to see all the fish but the color of the fish especially the irredescence did not show up like I knew it could. So, rather than spend a ton of money, I thought I would try one of these fixtures and if it worked, then I could buy more. When I put this on top of the glass strip which runs along the top of the tank, I could not believe how much brighter the fish looked and how much nicer everything looked with this little 36 inch fixture. I am going to immediately order another to put alongside the one I have. this way i will cover six feet of the seven which is the width of the tank. The 265 gallon tank is over two feet deep so I need something to reach the bottom. It does this pretty well also. Even my wife who really does not bother with the fish said "WOW" I got a real nice piece of lighting equipment and am really happy with it. It has plastic brackets on the side which slide out but i have no use for them. It is ultra slim and low profile which is real nice. I have a canopy on my tank which covers the entire top including all the lighting fixtures and makes it look more like a piece of furniture. I would highly recomend this light to anyone thinking about getting one.

Coralife 05439 HQI Double Ended Metal Halide Lamp, 150-Watt, 14K

Coralife 05439 HQI Double Ended Metal Halide Lamp, 150-Watt, 14KI bought a used MH light for my modified 29 gal BioCube and didn't know how old the bulb that came with it really was. I tried a Phoenix bulb which was VERY blue. My corals didn't seem to like it at all and my green bubble tip anemone was very unhappy. This Coral Life bulb is much better tolerated and it seems to provide the corals the light they like. Decent price but the packaging was not adequate at all. It came shipped in a small padded envelope. I would have thought a box would be better for a light bulb.
