What would you spend $100 on?

bmackcw · 05/18/2015, 08:59 AM

I just won an amazon gift card. I'm thinking about getting one of those Hydor units to plug my powerheads into so I don't have to manually unplug them when direct-feeding.

If you had $100 to play with, what would you get from Amazon?

MJV0103 · 05/18/2015, 09:30 AM

hahahahahaha, i would get the same thing.

bmackcw · 05/18/2015, 10:33 AM

It's $51 with my Prime membership...so $50 to go. I'm thinking about this:

It's a direct squirt feeder, but I can't imagine it does anything significantly better than my $5 turkey baster.

I'd like to get one of these. Might be more versital than what you posted.

Wow - thanks - that is better indeed. Have "added to cart".

Need one for my Quarantine Tank. Getting tired of manually topping off.

bmackcw · 05/18/2015, 12:28 PM

I bought one of these for under $50 (with a small pump):

Running great for about 6 months now.

oh wow, that's cool. First time seeing that.

Shawn O · 05/18/2015, 01:17 PM

I like that item, bmackwk, added to my purchase list. Scooter's ATO will go before it though.

Gfo+ reactor+ maxi jet pump

juscalmej · 05/18/2015, 05:17 PM

I actually just purchased an automatic feeder and an ATO. I would suggest these.

BigCountry74 · 05/18/2015, 09:37 PM

if you do not need anything i would save/sit on it. because something is going to break. and you will want the 100 bucks then

christopher7 · 05/18/2015, 10:03 PM

That's the hardest part about this hobby - waiting. I'd probably buy an auto feeder. Just got $50 Amazon so that's likely gonna happen soon. Patience is not my forte.

bmackcw · 05/19/2015, 12:24 PM

For the record, I got the direct-feeder thing and the Hydor smart wave controller. For the next $100, it'll be one of those reactor things I'm learning about that healthlinder 25 mentioned.

I will, of course, first buy a cheap one, then throw it away and buy the one I should have bought in the first place.

disc1 · 05/19/2015, 05:33 PM

A bottle of decent scotch. Oh, I guess you can't get that on Amazon.
