Aquarium Cleaning & Maintenance Products

This might be the least fun category in our web site. Keeping the aquarium clean is often the least favorite task for aquarists. But if you have the right tools, such as a magnet cleaner, and gravel vac, keeping your aquarium clean becomes much less of a task. This section also includes some basic products for maintaining your aquarium, such as test kits & REEFractometers.Useful Articles: 10 Ways To Stop Aquarium AlgaeICleaning Basics 101: Five Pro Cleaning Tips.

Algae Control

Algae ControlControlling aquarium diatom (brown) algae, and other types of algae, is a very complex task. It involves everything from water changes, cleaning filter pads, UV sterilizers, using RO water, & physically removing algae. The products in this section are part of that algae control strategy and include liquids, powder and algae pads.

Gravel Vacs/Water Changers

Aquarium Water Changers Gravel VacsUsing a gravel vac or water changer you can clean your substrate while removing dirty water for water changes. Everyone who has an aquarium should have one. They are one of the most essential pieces of aquarium equipment. We carry the Python, Aqueon, & JBJ, and with the Python there are many complimentary products.

Hydrometers & Refractometers

Hydrometers, electronic salinity testers, and both digital and non-digital refractometers for measuring aquarium salinity. We have our own MarineAndReef.com REEFractometer.If you need salt, we have that as well, but it is not the best price because it's very expensive to ship. It's one of those things we don't mind you getting at the local store.

Lubricant
