Warm fish. Advantages: Vital Equipment Disadvantages: Can break if not careful If you are planning to keep tropical fish then you are going to be in for a shock at how much it actually costs to get set up and running. One thing you will have to think about buying is a water heater to keep your fishes warm. This 300W heater will be ideal for a tank that has about 30-40 gallons. If you have a smaller tank you should buy a lower wattage heater. It is perfect for heating water. It is very safe to use as it's designed to be used ... ...is is very discrete and it's unobtrusive as it is slim and fits snugly in the corner of the tank. It is very easy to adjust the heater. There is a dial on the top that you can turn up to increase the temperature of the water or turn it down to decrease the temperature. Once the water has reached the set temperature, it turns it's self off until the water falls below the set temperature and then it will switch on again.

300w or 2 150w Advantages: only one unit for large tanks Disadvantages: may stik and boil your fishes! Rena has a very good reputation on aquarium equipment and their 300w heaters are a good buy, good build quality and in most cases very good value for money. the heat element is sealed and in case of an accident would not be realised in the aquarium, there is also a lights that came up when the heater is in operation and swich off when the correct temperature is reach. the only problem I found with 300w heaters is that sometimes they "stick" and ... lukmek 13.05.2003 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Rena Cal Basic 300 W
great for a tank without a filter! Advantages: very easy,just pop them in and they do the rest Disadvantages: have to buy more afterwards i won a fish at the fair and couldnt afford to buy a filter/bubbler,as i had spent all my money on a decent tank and decoration for it.Fish need oxygen in the water naturaly,because although they live under water they still breathe in air through thier gills,without oxegen they could die eventually,and most people wouldn't even know why. so i needed to find a cheap alternative to a bubbling filter,which constantly produces bubbles underwater,which ... ...to the local garden center in wantage,where they have a pets corner section,i was familiar with thier products and had used them before with my cat. They sell anything for pets,beds,toys,straw,hay,food, and much more.So i headed for the fish section and i saw some filters,but they were about £15 at the cheapest and then i saw a little box called oxygenating tablets,and i read the back and discovered that they slowly dissolve in the water producing ... tyler117117 02.11.2009 · Read full review Review of SUPA oxygenating tablets
Hagen FLuval 4 - Easy Cleaning - literally!! Advantages: Extremely easy to set up and get going and keeps the tank clean, healthy and a fun environment Disadvantages: Probably a little more pricier but definately more hardy and reliable in the long run. The Hagen Fluval family are, in my opinion, the best at keeping your fishtank crystal clean and healthy without all the palava that usually accompanies aquarium mechanics. The product is for larger fishtanks and is quite bulky however, the noise it emits isn't intrusive and the "gush" of water can easily be turned down to a lower speed so that it is merely a bubbling in the tank. It also sits on the horizon of the water and therefore produces a constant ... ...did was to install the Hagen Fluval 4. Although initially you may have to pay out a little more money and the filters themselves are not peanuts it - it is reliable and well worth the money! You wont have to replace these for many, many years and they are so sturdy and basically it is impossible for them to malfunction - if they do appear a little bit grouchy a simple rinse out is all that is needed and it is back to its best again.
