The priming pump actually works-i only had to pump it 6 times before the filter filled up via siphon. It has new lift and lock clamps, which seem no different than the 05s' clamps, other than color. The whole filter has a new color scheme. The media baskets inside are the same as the 05s' too. I have it on a 20 gallon long tank, I don't think it would be very good on a tank any bigger because it has a flow rate or 206 GPH (ironic, right?). Hagen's costumer service is awesome. I called for help on installation because when installed, mine wouldn't start. After some time on the phone, the problem was fixed. I would recommend this to anyone. I got it on sale from Amazon.com for $59.99 maxwellag Sat, 24 Dec 2011 11:05:57 -0600 Cichlid Substrate http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=285 <a href="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=285" target="_blank"><img title="Carib_Sea.jpg" border="0" src="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/attachments/reviews/data/31/thumbs/Carib_Sea.jpg" alt="Carib_Sea.jpg" /></a><br /><br />by: hdultra<br /><br />Description: African Cichlid Mix CaribSea's African Cichlid substrates can help recreate a variety of environments.

Both biological and mechanical filtration are accomplished by two foam filters that trap floating debris and biologically cleanse aquarium water. To maintain effective biological filtration it is recommended to rinse the foam filters in water taken from the aquarium and to alternately replace them when necessary. Oxygenation of aquarium water is best achieved by locating the vertically adjustable outlet at the waters? surface. This compact internal filter system is conveniently positioned in a variety of locations within the aquarium and is completely safe for even the smallest baby fish (fry). kangster Wed, 25 Feb 2009 19:29:43 -0600 submersible aquarium heater 50 watt http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=274 <a href="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=274" target="_blank"><img title="11518_400wh.jpg" border="0" src="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/attachments/reviews/data/8/thumbs/11518_400wh.jpg" alt="11518_400wh.jpg" /></a><br /><br />by: kangster<br /><br />Description: Aqueon introduces the most accurate, reliable, durable and easy to use aquarium heaters on the market.

Before to go any further with this, lets take a moment to have a look to the all new LED Submersible Moonlight. Product overview: It is a completely submersible moonlight system equipped with 6 true actinic 03 blue color LEDs. It comes with a low voltage transformer with output adjustment knob for brightness control and 2 meter long flexible silicone power cord. It can be mounted anywhere above or in the tank itself with a suction cup. Designed to work for nano tanks and up to 3 feet tanks. Dimensions: Height: 8 in Width: 4 in Depth: 2 in Weight: 0.55 lb My review: I was looking for moonlight for a little 5 gallon reef tank and a 25 gallon reef tank. This new product was fairly cheap ($55 on sale at $29) so I bought one for the little tank and two for the other tank. As soon as I got home with the new toys, I immediately installed them on the tanks and waited for the night. At 11pm, the day lights turned off and realized my mistake. Instead of creating a diffuse blue light all over the tanks, it create some little laser lights (not bright at all) that goes through the water. I thought two as simply not enough for a 25 gallon tank so I tried them all on the 5 gallon tank and got the same bad results. That was terrible so I decided to donate the moonlights to a friend who finally gave them back to me. I have paid $90 for the 3 moonlights so I decided to use them on the 5 gallon tank but one of the bulb burned after only 3 months. One last thing, it always fall so it would need additional suction cups.

Does its job very well on my 30g long. Cons: Compared to my AquaTech 5-15 filter (see my other review) this one is quite noisy. It is not bad if your tank is in a room other than your bedroom. Overall: After researching HOB filters extensively, it seems like this is the most cost effective and efficient filter.

It look better than Nano cube and was larger. I purchased for 234.99+tax and also the modern good looking stand for it which was $112. Pros sleek and good looking system. Wet dry is simple if u decided to use it. Cons THE HOOD IS NOT HINGED!!! what where they thinking? that's is like having car hood not hinged. it's hard to do any maintence that require acessing anything toward the back. overall 3.7/5 rating. I would buy it again. fishrfreinds Mon, 20 Aug 2007 19:44:45 -0500 Capitol Aquarium, 1920 29th Street, Sacramento, CA 95816 http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=260 <a href="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=260" target="_blank"><img title="cap_aqua111.jpeg" border="0" src="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/attachments/reviews/data/28/thumbs/cap_aqua111.jpeg" alt="cap_aqua111.jpeg" /></a><br /><br />by: mpasley<br /><br />Description: From www.CapitolAquarium.net: We are a family-owned and operated business, serving the Sacramento area for over 40 years.
