If you're looking to swap with someone here or buy you could add your zipcode since this is the swap reddit. And you can also ask this type of info on the r/Aquariums reddit.... but since i saw your question, I have a few 5 gal and I like the Cobalt Aquatics 25 watt heaters because you can change the temperature as opposed to a preset, but they are a little expensive (to me at least).

Since I was on a tight budget, I bought the Topfin setup and hated it. The filter stopped working after a month, I returned it and they let me exchange it for an Aqueon Quietflow 10. You can sub in small media like Matrix or I really like ChemiBlue Nano but it removes tannins. If you take the hood off, the light goes with it so you can't see in the tank. I'd skip it and get a glass lid. It didn't come with a heater I don't remember. So, I've also used the Aqueon 50 watt presets, but sort of depends on ambient room temp (mine's on an outside wall, so fine for shrimp, not for fish as much). Amazon, Drs Foster and Smith, and Chewy all have cheaper prices than the big box stores unless you catch a sale. Drs F & S also have the glass lids for the tanks (Marine land for TopFin tanks and VersaTop for Aqueon tanks). This cheap little light is perfect for a 5 gal and bright too, and only $10. Aqueon Quietflow 10 is only $16 on Amazon. I used Petco Sand for $5/bag you can mix with your gravel. And used API root tabs. Great cheap driftwood and I did the research reading the bad comments lol. Perfect for nano tanks.

I mean, this is a pretty good deal imo. I don't think you should be dismissing and downvoting this post without doing the proper research. FYI did the math:

17lbs Seiryu rock - $32

Nano 511 Externa Canister Filter - $69

Jardli Glass Lily Pipe inflow and outflow - $49.90

JBJ Rimless 10 gallon - $159.99 cheapest I could find, it's 189.99 at petco

Glass lid - can't find one for 10g so I'd assume custom made $5+

GH & KH Test Kit & API Master Kit-$8.59 + $22.54 = $31.03

Tropica Aquarium Soil 3L - $49.60

5 Gallon Bucket w/ lid - probably like $3-5

Seachem Purigen - 2 packet is $19.49

Cleaning magnet - $5-20

Spider Wood - Depends like $10-25+

Siphon - depends probably $5-10

Test Strips - $5.22

  • The bonuses he's providing like the aquascaping tools - probably $10+?

    By the way, these are all conservative numbers. The total comes to around $484.31, which is if everything is brand new. Even if some of the products are used, the cost is 52% off the conservative value of all the items in this package. So for the quality of the items here, I don't think it's a bad price at all. Now the question is, which items are new and which items are used?

This is crazy, cause I had this list put together, let me know what you think of this stuff? May go with your diffuser tho as it seems cheaper, is it also a c
Drop checker or do I need to get one of those too? Also, should I be dosing stuff on top of this CO2 setup? Like should I use Excel and other stuff still?

Ohhh ok, wasn't sure if you tried cutting the top off of it or not.

Regulator (it says not for aquarium use but it’s perfectly fine. Read the reviews, plenty of paid ole are using it for planted tanks.)

Have been running this setup for awhile now and don’t have any issues.


u/soon2Bintoxicated · 10 pointsr/AquaSwap

I have one and can ship it tomorrow (Monday). New in package 25 watt that is too long for my little tank. PM me if something better doesnt come along.

I will ship it free of charge, too. If you want it overnighted/expedited then you can PayPal me the costs.

I'm in Sacramento California, fyi.

added link to the heater.

Shipped earlier today (Monday 4/3) and it should be to you no later than Thursday. PM'd you the tracking number. Best!

If you can't find anyone local for lighting, I have 24" T5 and T8 fixtures that I no longer use that I'd be willing to sell cheap.

The T8 is the standard Aqueon fixture that comes with their tanks when buying the set. I can even throw in a free full spectrum replacement bulb that I bought for it but never used.

The T5 is a DeepBlue SolarMaxHE. This is a bit more powerful than the standard T8 and it should be able to handle medium plants easily, maybe medium-high borderlines. I wouldn't try anything demanding (dwarf baby tears) though.

I also have plants, assassin snails, and Malaysian Trumpet Snails, though I'm not sure about packaging them up in the same shipping as you probably want those delivered priority instead of standard post (plus you already stated a preference for local).

I buy in bulk off Amazon. Just standard corregated cardboard.
Shipping is technically 3.50$ plus the 39 cents per box plus tap and bags comes out to about 4$ for me. Obviously bigger boxes are needed sometimes but then I usually just recycle old boxes. (And packing material save the enviorment guys)

Buy this water bed water changer or this python replacement connector. Buy this hose. Buy this brass adapter.

​

Congratulations. You have a 50 foot python for less than $25. You can build a part out of PVC that hangs on the side of your tank for less than $5 and it'll let you control the flow of the water into or out of your tank. Not having to stand at your tank during water changes is nice.

u/Ask461 · 2 pointsr/AquaSwap

I have a 5 gallon I’m selling with a light, heater, and HOB filter for $60 so definitely put your zip code! But before I upgraded my tank I had a simple sponge filter with air pump from amazon, a Nicrew light, and driftwood from a local store that cost me $10... in total my first set up was... air pump , sponge filter , Nicrew light (that was $14 when I got it...) and the tank $10, lid $10, driftwood $10= about $8”:) or you can do this HOB heater

Oh and for plants in this sub, there’s tons of people that sell good, tons of plants, good priced! I got TONS OF PLANTS for $20-$30 from bquad. But he isn’t the only one

I have a 6g fluval edge, I just picked up a bag of this from amazon. $22 shipped, and was more than enough to fill my edge, plus some excess to build up the hills I needed for my aquascape

this is more or less what 20lbs of this looks like in a 6g edge... There are some larger rocks in there as well taking up space, so expect a little less fill. I didn't snap any pictures before i started sticking my plants in there, but you get the idea. 20lbs is a good amount for this tank. The bag ships wet, so the 20lb weight is a little deceptive.

u/_Prrr · 1 pointr/AquaSwap

Hey! Some other people asked about the air pump and fertilizer, but the root tabs are the the Seachem Flourish Tabs (these ones). There are five left. These are the scissors and tongs I have. Let me know if you're still interested!

u/ramdangeriii · 1 pointr/AquaSwap

I have Aquaclear Biomax 110 in my tank right now. Each box comes with two, so I can give you one of the baggies to throw in your tank.

u/SigmaLance · 1 pointr/AquaSwap

I think my Fluval 306 and 406 have 1/2” tubing. Maybe these would work for you?
