Best Aquarium Investment you ever made

the best investment i ever made for my aquarium was picking up a magnetic algae scraper for my classroom tank. all my students keep the glass spotless.

wh at do you consider your best aquarium investment?

I think the best investment I ever made was my Python. I know I couldn't have 4 tanks without it.

In equipment, hands down....the Python can not be beat. In livestock, my GBR's. These guys were a purchase from Aquabid and they are paying for themselves 10 times over with all the babies they've had. Heck, with the $$$ I could make off of them, I could buy several more tanks.

It's only been a week or so, but my pressurized CO2 system is great!

My tanks are too small for pythons, so I use a gravel vac to remove water. But a $10 pump sure makes it easy to fill the tanks back up!
