Stealth Visi-Therm Submersible Aquarium Heater Review

Stealth Visi-Therm Submersible Aquarium Heater
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought one of these heaters 2 years ago. It was working fine so bought another 6 months later. The first one stopped working 6 months ago, the second one stopped working this month. Also it does not have a light so you can see if it is working.

biOrb Aquarium Kit with Light Fixture Review

biOrb Aquarium Kit with Light Fixture
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I totally recommend this aquarium kit for anyone just starting out in the fish-keeping hobby.Vitually everything you'll need comes in the box. However, when I bought my BiOrb a year ago, there was no heater included.If you want to keep tropical fish, you will likely need to purchase BiOrb's heater kit if they haven't yet decided to include a heater in the package.You can purchase a small heater at any good pet store, but it's likely to be a bit of an eyesore in the BiOrb.

I keep 3 dwarf African frogs and one dwarf puffer in the BiOrb and there is ample room.Cleaning day is about every 8 weeks and is generally only a matter of changing a few gallons of water and taking out the old filter cartridge and putting a new one in.The tank is well-aerated and you never see fish gasping for air at the top.Plus, it's a gorgeous tank.

My only complaint is that when I bought the BiOrb, I had no idea that they would soon come out with a 16-gallon version.I definitely would have gotten the larger tank, since with the smaller one, you have to severely limit the number of fish or aquatic creatures you keep in it.With the 16 gallon tank, you can have double the number of pets.Still, I'm very happy with my BiOrb.

Product Description:
The Baby biOrb is a sophisticated aquarium that bestows the soothing sensation of swimming fish at home or at the office. It requires very little maintenance, and all supplies, including a halogen light and a comprehensive instruction guide, are provided. The unique, built-in 5-stage filtration system combines biological, chemical, and mechanical filtration to keep the water healthy and crystal-clear for months between simple filter changes. The filter cartridge conveniently lasts up to 8 weeks, so cleaning the BiOrb is quite easy. Since the filter is barely visible at the bottom of the globe, it causes no obstruction of the underwater view when the biOrb is filled. The durable, bowl-shaped Plexiglass allows a perfect 360-degree viewing angle, and the built-in halogen light provides full observation of the swimming fish any time of day. The compact size and silver trim allow it to blend into any desk, counter, table, shelf, or mantel. The Baby biOrb measures 13 x 13 x 13 inches and is covered by a manufacturer's warranty.

Sylvan Ozone Generator 3500mg/hr Ozone Output Review

Sylvan Ozone Generator 3500mg/hr Ozone Output
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is my very first review ever on anything, but the product warranted my input.Asthetically, it is not much to look at.However, it does what it says it does.I live in a row Townhouse condo complex and live next door to smokers.Unfortunately, they smoke in the basement, and the smell travels through the spaces left open by the common pipes that run through each unit, making my laundry room and rec room literally stink as if there were 10 people sitting in the laundry room smoking.After much confrontation, they have ceased smoking, however, the residue of the nicotine stuck on all my possessions in the storage area of my laundry room.I had tried vinegar, bleach, air purifier... anything I could think of to remove/reduce the smell.Our restoration company told us about the industrial ozone generators they use to eradicate smoke smell after a fire.After reviewing many models on-line, I finally broke down and purchased this generator.Got it yesterday and ran it for 1/2 hour (it is two 8x10 rooms) in the evening.It did exactly what it said it would do.The "oxygen" smell is akin to a downpour of rain during a hot summer day... pungent, yet clean. I went down this morning, and the whole laundry room and the rec room smell clean and fresh and no nasty tobacco smell.It was amazing, and a relief to have that nasty smell out of my home.Next, I will try it in my vehicles, and also the bathroom to help control any bacteria.I am very pleased with this item - well worth the money - highly recommend it.

The Maxi-Jet is the Mercedes of aquarium power-heads.At nearly 300 gallons per hour you know you have plenty of air circulation and water movement.I placed one at each end of the tank to get a circular movement in the top of my aquarium.This gives a nice fast current for the active fish and slightly moves the water at the bottom.They are easy to clean and pack plenty of bubbles into your aquarium for optimum aeration.

Marineland Penguin w/Bio-Wheel 200 gph Review

Marineland Penguin w/Bio-Wheel 200 gph
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had my Penguin 200 with the bio-wheel for about a month now.Before I bought it, I did some research and read the reviews about this particular model.I saw all the bad press people were giving it about it's "restart problems" and "Bad Connections" etc. etc. and I have to say, the only problem with the P-200 are the short-bus riders who don't have their water ALL THE WAY UP TO THE BOTTOM OF THE OUTPUT AREA.

5*s*t*a*r*s, the bio-wheel is super, it isn't noisy (you know it's on, but it doesn't stop you from reading a book), and my fish have personally told me that they love it.My fish talk to me.

Product Description:
Marineland Penguin Power Filters with Bio-Wheel feature complete, 3-stage filtration to keep their aquarium clear, clean, and healthy.

Increased flow rates maintain optimum water circulation and ensure proper BIO-wheel rotation. Adjustable water intake strainer allows you to take water from the bottom or mid-tank for the ultimate in complete circulation. The all-new cover design and sealed motor dramatically reduces water noise and vibrations while still maintaining optimum oxygenation.

I have a 100 gallon tank and I paid 500.00 for a wet/dry system that everyone swore would be my last and best filter.Well after a year of loud draining noises and yellow water I ditched it and put on 2 of the XP2's.All I can say is WOW!!!!After only 9 hours my water is crystal clear!I was so used to the yellow tinge in the water I forgot what clear water looked like!My wet dry was rated for a 200 gallon tank and I changed the media religously!It pales in comparison to the XP2's!And the XP2's along with a year supply of filter media cost less than half of the Wet/Dry system!I am sold on the XP2!They are virtually noiseless too!

biOrb Service Kit - 6 pack Review

biOrb Service Kit - 6 pack
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As someone else stated, the filter packs are a waste of money.If you only have fish in the tank, and not live plants, you need only purchase a jug of charcoal, and replace the filter media yourself (after rinsing, of course).

Further, if you have live plants in your biorb, you will need to replace the charcoal with a filter media such as SeaChem's purigen.At $18ish / 100ml, this is still far more economical than using the OEM filter packs, and you'll be using a filter media that will not rob the water of the nutrients the plants require to thrive.

As far as the sponge part of the filter, just rinse it out in old tank water.Simple, economical, and gives you a sense of accomplishment.

BTW- that overpriced bulb is a simple JC G4 bi-pin base, halogen 5w bulb.No need to pay the premium for the reef one packaging.For that matter, the jackhammer airpump can be replaced with a cheepo $7 model from wherever as well when it quits.

Hope this helps others, I've learned along the way that owning a biorb needs not be an expensive proposition!

Hagen Fluval Canister Filter 305 Review

Hagen Fluval Canister Filter 305
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Improvements since the older models have made this even easier to use, while retaining the traditional benefits that this filter offers - consistent performance and great flexibility in selection of filter media. Mine came with a tiny crack in the housing that caused it to slowly leak a gallon or two of water onto the floor before I noticed, and the company promptly sent me a new part without making me take the whole thing apart and send it back. Good product, good service.

Canister Aquarium Filter 265 GPH Review

Canister Aquarium Filter 265 GPH
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
ok so this pump bucket...is about 1.6 galons comes with 3 trays in it. you can load them with whatever you see fit to run whatever type of tank you want however they do come with the filter media you need...so you wont have to go out and buy some.

i own two. both 1000 due to the fact that i didnt hear very good things about the larger models and because i run a 75 saltwater with fish inverts and loads of live rock.

ive had one for 6 months now and i liked it so much and i liked the PRICE so much i decided to buy another one of the same type.

i dont use the rubber hoses and fittings they come with altho they are great. i actually did some diy plumming and have them both hooked togheder on the intake but sparate utputs.

water flow is good they are very quiet and if you plan on running them in a cabinet you wont hear them run at all.

the disconect feature is great but sometimes when i unhook the pump i spill a bit of water. not from the intake or output hoses...its the water thats left in the canister...but its only id say about as much as you can fit in a tablespoon.

as far as priming goes...you hook up the hoses...you pump the top button hard about 5 times and then by suction it will get its own airbubbles out.

NOTE at first it will blow bubbles untill it fills itself with water but this is for less than a few seconds. after 3 minutes if you still see slight bubbles coming out that means you didnt set up the hoses rightand you might have an air leak but thats not the pumps fault.once properly set this will be the last of your worries especially when it comes to maintenance.

if you buy this pump you wont regret it.

I cannot believe I'm writing a review of the filters for my Pet Fountain...but here goes.The Pet Fountain itself is fabulous...and these filters do work and catch all the guck in the air, hair, dust, etc. to keep it working well and the water clean.My cats (and dog) love the fresh, moving water.The filters themselves?We live in the country, so there are dirt paths to the house and a lot of dust comes in and our pets are indoor/outdoor animals. The filter needs changing every month, so for a year's worth you will need 6 packages of 2 filters, but they are not expensive and do keep the Fountain working optimally.
