XpertMatic sent out this internal filter for me to review. The filter is based around a power head on top of a media compartment. It supposedly works well, but I have some concerns.

Seachem Prime Vs Safe Water Dechlorinator Review
Seachem Prime is one of the most popular dechlorinators on the market. But did you know that Seachem makes a powder form? It’s cheaper, and treats way more water!
Both Prime and Safe Dechlorinate water and make ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate non-toxic. Safe does not treat heavy metals, while prime does.
Prime is only $10, and treats 60,000 gallons! The biggest downside is it is so concentrated, that it can be hard to dose smaller tanks. Luckily, every 1/4 teaspoon treats 300 gallons, which makes division easy.
I’d highly recommend safe for tanks 40 gallons and bigger if you want to save some cash!
My Python Water Change System Broke (And How I Fixed It)

Fritz Glass And Acrylic Cleaner Review
First off… I LOVE this product from Fritz.
I was like many others, and used a diluted White Vinegar mixture or Windex to clean my aquarium glass. Vinegar, while it worked, left a lot to be desired. Windex can be deadly to your fish if you’re not extra careful.
Fritz Glass And Acrylic Cleaner has a couple of huge pros:
It’s Ammonia Free and Aquarium Safe.
It leave a protective layer that prevents fingerprints, water spots, and dust.
It’s leaves your glass polished and feeling super smooth.
I highly recommend this product to anyone with an aquarium.
