"It's not heavy though."

I've been using these filters in my aquarium for years. Easy to use and a great price here at Amazon! The filters are expensive to replace and only so-so quality. Always needing to wash it out, with only 1 small catfish in the tank right now. I have used marine land bio-wheel pump and filters for the past 20 yrs. I've used it for years with great results. Okay, I don't own an aquarium- probably never will.

Tetra 77851 Final Thoughts

"I'd give them 4."

The siphon works well and does what it should. I always deep clean my humidifier every week-week and half regardless. I've been using these filters in my aquarium for years. Don't claim to be an expert, but I've never heard of that. I've used it for years with great results. Yes I know, they aren't supposed to live that long and no I can't prove it. I used one gallon of reverse osmosis and the rest tap.

"That said."

In my opinion there's nothing better. Its quite hard to push it on to the air pump. If placed the other way, the carbon can be pushed out into the aquarium. If placed the other way, the carbon can be pushed out into the aquarium. The one with the fish keeps the tank clean. Initially this was used as a sample packet came with our aquarium. I had the filters in a few days ordering from Amazon.

"Buy another."

So, lots of snipping and fitting on various stems. It only requires 3 drops per gallon you add to your tank. Be sure to unplug the filter before you do the change. Will be ordering multiple of them for my needs. The tap water was coming out around 836ppm. Easy maintenance of tank filtration once tank is fully cycled over a few months. I've been using these filters in my aquarium for years.

"But does an amazing job."

4-5 squirts in a sink of water, soak my suit 10 min, wring out and hang to dry. I was impressed at the suction and speed of this little tool. Affluent Romans kept their water and wine in silver flasks for the same reason. Washed with hot water several times to get rid of it. But intjink it has alot more to do with the pump rather than the tube. Didn't use this for a fishtank or to pump liquids through it. These fish contain silver in a compound that dissolves slowly.

"5 ga beta fish bowl."

Couldn't find this at the local pet store and it was cheaper online. Now our fish have grown and we've added live plants. Great price for filters that are ready to go, with no assembly required. Okay, I don't own an aquarium- probably never will. I do not use this as a product to treat my tap water. This will retain much of the bacteria needed. I used to use AmQuel years ago and then spent years out of the aquarium hobby.

"And he is a betta."

Water stays nice and clear, minus the odd algae bloom. These fish contain silver in a compound that dissolves slowly. This is my go to water conditioner and stressed fish treatment. Don't claim to be an expert, but I've never heard of that. I was impressed at the suction and speed of this little tool. The ridges interfere with moving the hose around in the tank. I hope you found this review helpful!

"This why i rated 4 stars."

I'm not sure what's going on with this 1. Fish are aerobic organisms that are susceptible to ROS. I used one gallon of reverse osmosis and the rest tap. Its quite hard to push it on to the air pump. Works great to keep the purification process going in the humidifier. I change my filters every 2 weeks with a water change and my fish have lasted years. It didn't kill the fish or cause any problems with the water so I stuck with it.

"Highly recommended!"

Then put hose in your bucket and viola, it will draw water! If placed the other way, the carbon can be pushed out into the aquarium. Exactly the same item I purchased from a local store for alot more money! As dirty as the larger fish are theses cartridges keep mytanls crystal clean. Before I did anything with my tank Saturday the TDS reading was in the hight 900's. I haven't tried looking for alternative brands. Lastly, the hand pump primes very quickly and the water flow is wonderful.

"8 degrees."

Washed with hot water several times to get rid of it. I decant this to a small 5 oz squeeze bottle and leave the rest in the fridge. 4-5 squirts in a sink of water, soak my suit 10 min, wring out and hang to dry. I had the filters in a few days ordering from Amazon. I bought this to attach to my Tetra whisper 20. The auction begins with just a few squeezes even my young nephew could do it. Easy to use and a great price here at Amazon!

"Either way!"

I just change them when they get clogged. If placed the other way, the carbon can be pushed out into the aquarium. Beats the heck out of those expensive suit cleaners. I'm not sure what's going on with this 1. Easy to use and a great price here at Amazon! Lastly, the hand pump primes very quickly and the water flow is wonderful. The chloramines contain a small amount of ammonia.

"I have a 3."

This water conditioner is a life saver! I decant this to a small 5 oz squeeze bottle and leave the rest in the fridge. They surely don't last in tank very long. I tested it again this morning and it's down to 838ppm. I'm glad Amazon had these small cartridges. I like to sit eye level with the tank substrate to see exactly what I am cleaning. It's far superior to manually scooping out the water from the fish tank.

"Great price as well!"

However if you want a stress coat, this is perfect. I've used it for years with great results. I even poured in extra to help with the healing. I bought this airline tubing to work with my air pump. Then I went ahead and bought a huge pack of them. But this is great utility tubing for a variety of other uses. But intjink it has alot more to do with the pump rather than the tube.

"This does the job well."

Then I can walk away and come and move it to the next pocket or re-position it. Beats the heck out of those expensive suit cleaners. I can't find them any where's else. If you're treating injured fins or introducing new fish, this is for you. Another plus has been that it is scratching an itch we had for getting real fish. I bought this to attach to my Tetra whisper 20. The ridges interfere with moving the hose around in the tank.

In the morning I awoke with my fish at the bottom barely able to move. I bought this airline tubing to work with my air pump. Great price and will for sure be ordering these again. Exactly the same item I purchased from a local store for alot more money! Washed with hot water several times to get rid of it. It DOES fit, you just have to spend a few minutes getting it on.
