Power strips and aquarium timers are often critical components to a successful aquarium set up. Timers and power strips are available as individual items or combos. Aquarium timer and power strip combos offer you the added equipment protections along with the built-in timing control for such devices as aquarium lighting. When using a power strip, always look for one that allows the strip to be mounted. Power strips should be placed in an area that will prevent any accidental exposure to spills and splashing from your aquarium. Both power strips and aquarium timers should be plugged into a grounded three-prong GFCI controlled outlet for added safety
Yes! Air pumps, lighting<, heaters, powerheads and filters< all use electricity and in most setups, you will encounter more plugs than outlets facilitating the need for a power strip. Additionally, a power strip will provide protection from power surges that could potentially damage your aquarium equipment.
Aquarium timers are primarily used for aquarium lighting. Using an aquarium timer will ensure your aquatic life maintains a consistent day and night cycle, along with taking one more task off your plate – remembering to turn your aquarium lights on and off.

We currently buy gallons of water but with the 29 gallon tank we really don't want to have to do that. We have well water with a salt filter. My levels from to tap was nitrate 10, nitrite 0, hardness 0, chlorine 0, alk 100, ph 7.. is my tap water safe even with the salt filter.

Hello! I was wondering if you could help me out. The internet doesn’t help out to much and the bottle of the test strips doesn’t tell me the ideal amount some of these should be at. So if you could help me out here I would really appreciate it. And please tell me the amount it should be at and if it isn’t ideal how to improve it please and thank you. GH• (General Hardness) 30 KH• (Carbonate Hardness) 40 pH• 7.0/7.5 NO2• 0 NO3• 0 I am testing the tank for a betta if that makes it vary.
