I have to admit my light has been one of the best purchases I've ever made!

#1 Vertex Illumina
#2 Vertex Alpha 170 cone
#3 mp40w

even tho i haven't even got a chance to use #2, and #3 still some of the best buys ive made!

1. MP40W ES
2. KEY Aquarium LED

I have to say so far my best buy would be my mini bubble king 180. But I still have more to get!

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Hanna digital colorimeters. If you consider the things we hate doing most and the technological solutions to these problems, then a better test kit should be on the list.

I love my Hanna test kits!

WHAT WAS THE SIZE OF THE LIGHT YOU GOT? WHAT WAS THE REASON THAT YOU GOT THE VERTEX INSTEAD OF AI OR OTHERS. JUST CURIOUS. I AM ALSO IN THE MARKET FOR LEDS. I GUESS THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION IS WHAT KIND OF CORAL DO YOU KEEP?

THANKS

Ok, this is one of my purchases and I was thinking that it could just be one of those junker items that you buy and throw away.

I looked at all the LFS in Calgary and could not find this item. Maybe its a BRS exclusive? Let me tell you this thing is worth its weight in gold.

Yes its an algae scraper thats removed a years worth of coraline algae around the edges of my tank!! WOW!! I cleaned all of my glass today, better than I could ever do by hand before.

I also purchased a 10 pack of blades.

Wow. thats all I got to say, I bought one from JL aquatics for 10.95. This little scraper is amazing. If you have a large magfloat then you need to get yourself one of these. What a time saver. I can't believe I have been sticking my arm in the tank for hours on end to clean and scrap off all the coraline algae on the glass. When I started this thread this is exactly what I was looking to accomplish. Thanks for sharing this with me.

ACJR...

A controller is like piece of mind...

After I got a controller set up, I really started to enjoy my tanks a lot more.

Now I just need to set up a system that automatically replenishes my ro resevoir...

Chin Lee posted about this EasyBlade years ago on Canreef when it first came out. It is an awesome little tool.:biggrin:
