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 20:29:43 -0500 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.

It basically introduces lighting, water quality &amp; movement, aquascaping, algae, etc. It even has a neat little section on biotopes and a small encyclopedia of fish, corals, and invertebrates. One problem with this book is that it doesn't really go into depth about anything and the metric measurements were a little annoying for me. churnee Sun, 24 Sep 2006 22:59:02 -0400 H2O Stable Wafers http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=234 <a href="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=234" target="_blank"><img title="img3042374.jpg" border="0" src="http://www.aquariumadvice.com/attachments/reviews/data/32/thumbs/img3042374.jpg" alt="img3042374.jpg" /></a><br /><br />by: RoK<br /><br />Description: Hormone-free color enhancing formula stays together in water for up to 24 hours.

Our Deluxe Bright Kits include some additional components so you can make the most of your 13w compacts when they are installed in a wood canopy or custom enclosure. The Deluxe kits provide an eight foot power cord with an in-line switch as well as a reflector specifically designed for 13w compact fluorescents. The reflector is made of state-of-the-art MIRO 4 reflective material and employs nine facets in a modified &quot;M&quot; shape to greatly increase the effective light you get out of your 13w bulbs. You can arrange these reflectors end-to-end in a wood enclosure on a tank at least 18&quot; long, and on shorter tanks they can be installed one in front of the other.
