I have had these for 2 years and they have been working fine. I love the color covers. During Christmas I use the red and green, always a hit!

When my tetra started leaking I bought this. Its been working fine but I still get a slight tint of green water in the spring. Usually I just change the bulb and it clears right up. 3 stars because bulbs only last about 6-8 months.

This worked fine for a little less then a year, then it started to leak. I was told by the manufacturer the water flow was to high for this size unit and therefore was not covered under warranty. I won't buy this again.

I have been using these test strips for years and never had a single problem with the results not being accurate. I even brought my water into the pet shop for testing and their results were the exact same as these strips. They make it very easy to test...just a few seconds and you are done.

I have had this on my pond for 5 years. It never cracked or leaked. Great spillway and I added these bio balls with carbon to it and so its a nice little filter as well.

I don't have a bottom drain so my pump pulls through this and its at the bottom of the pond. It works very well and is easy to clean. It does clog from time to time though. But when its clean the water really looks sharp.

This was the perfect pump for my koi pond. I have about 700 gallons and this pump was everything I needed. Quiet, efficient, the right size and the right price. Been using it for 3 years with no problems at all.

I love the dual outlet. Very powerful and it almost never clogs, even when my pond is really dirty. Great little pump.

This did nothing to keep the raccoons away. I lost one fish to a raccoon so I ordered this online. I spread it around the yard but 3 days later they were back and this time the cleaned me out.

My pump died and the mosquitoes started to gather. I dropped these in for a few days and the bugs were gone and the fish didn't mind them at all.

I have a small pond so the 3 foot net is fine for me. It is a good little net and I can catch my koi quickly and without hurting them. The price was right too.

I pretty much wasted my money on these. I still tested ammonia after using them.

I took out that stupid mesh net that came with my aquascapes skimmer. It was always clogged. So I put these in and they catch everything and my pump never clogs.

I have these in a bag in my waterfall. I always had dingy looking water. Somebody suggested I use carbon so I found these online. I now have super crystal clear water!

Review:
A member of my local koi club recommended this when i had an ulcer that I couldn't cure. I was putting lots of different products in the pond and nothing worked. I dipped my koi once a day for 4 days and then a week later the ulcer was completely healed and has yet to return. This stuff is like magic!

I have a small pond and this worked great. I had a koi with an infection on the tail and the wound was covered in fungus. These tabs cleared it up in less then three days and then the infection was able to heal on its own.

I use this every Spring. Its the only medicated koi food my local pet store has so I cant compare it to anything else. But it seems to work well for me. A bit too expensive though.

Very high quality food. Been feeding it for about a year now and the koi have developed nicely with thick tails and bright colors. Very little waste in pond which is always nice.

My koi loved this stuff. Great high protein snack. I feed it as a supplement all summer long and they go nuts every time I throw it in.
