Marineland PA0392 Diamond Blend Activated Carbon/Ammonia Neutralizing Crystals, 50-Ounce, 1417-Gram


Best Quality and Best Price *Buy from EntirelyPets*
Pros:
With following the rule of 30g to 30gal(min) this stuff works wonders, I had and was using HBH and it's carbon
if excellent no lie but its Ammonia Neutralizing blend really was a waste. You may pay a tad more for this but
that 3 bucks is worth every extra penny, plus EntirelyPets has it cheaper then the pet stores. Don't get me wrong
you still smell a tad of fishy/turtle water but you gotta stick you nose in the water.
-No smell compared to all other blends
anyone with turtles will know that nasty smell this is you answer)
-Lasts over a month *I change every month for best results*
-Less dust then all others so you barely have to rinse it
-If you water smells put this in a bag run you filter 24hr and your water will be crystal and smell free
-Not saying you wanta but when you change the media smell the water then the media and you be like WOW
this blend locks in a lot a smell and the only smell is off the media...
Good filter media
I use this media for my Emperor Power Filter system as a additional filter. It really help to dissolved organic waste and odors also removes toxic ammonia and chloramines.
Great Media!
I love Marineland and this media helped me lower the Ammonia level in my goldfish tank. It is amazing. Would recommend to anyone with a fresh water aquarium.

Perfect-A-Strip Incandescent Light, Black, 12 1/2"


Decent Light for very small aquariums when using CF bulbs
No surprises here, good for a 2 1/2g or a 5 1/2 gallon with a glass top. It has one socket, which I use a Compact Fluorescent (CF) bulb in to maximize efficiency and still provide good lighting. I am actually using this to supplement a Perfecto 20" Fluorescent strip, which by itself, barely provides enough light for a 10Gal with live plants.

Pros - Works as it should

Cons - Has an old-style small black turn switch, as opposed to a push button (like the other Perfecto lights), which can be annoying to use at times.

P.S. The description doesn't state, but this is a single bulb fixture
Love it!
This tank light fits my 2.5 baby fry tank extremely well! I love it! I use the Aqueon brand "Colormax" color enhancing mini compact florescent (for saving power and better lighting) bulb ( 6"L; 10 watt lamp) and it works beautifully! The colors are extremely vibrant in the tank and I don't mind that it has a turn style black knob on the side. This also comes with a little strip "stand" thing (not sure what to call it" that's a few inches long (it that), to hold the light in place. Make sure you figure out where you want it before gluing it, and I guess I was too impatient for mine to let the adhesive (comes already on the "stand") completly set, so mine ended up sliding, but this won't happen if you let it set like the instructions say. haha! oops? ;)
Great Strip Light!
I been looking for a light source for my 2.5 gallon fish tank... check everywhere..

I was going to go for a desktop lamp...which would looks bulky and big behind my rack shelf. Plus it won't even fit...

Did a research online on strip light or hood light.... no hood light but this strip light.

I read the review on it and instantly place an order.

It arrive well package.

Put in one of the CFL light bulb from walmart fish department and the whole tank light up very nice. Gives my tank a very nice and natural look...mine is on a timer.

It comes with a sticky pad to place ontop of your glass lid so the hood stay in place....awsome!!

Marineland PA11501 Canister Filter Foam for PC-ml530, 2-Pack


Does a good job. A bit overpriced.
these are nice pads that are form fitted for the trays in the C530.
They do a good job but I would recommend less expensive filter media alternatives if you can find them.
Too pricey at 5-6$/pad.
Great price compaired to the store
Saved like five dollers compaired to the store and works great. Shipping was fast and fits perfectly in my water filter. I love Marineland products for my fish tank!
easy to use, very straighforward
This is a necessity for all marineland c220 filters. I replace mine monthly to keep the flow in the filter at its peak. I also rinse every other week.
