green football, myy friend has two that attatch to the side with suctioncups. no cheesy decorations.

I know nothing about them, but...

If I couldn't close my eyes, I wouldn't want lasers shining around me all time!

I imagine it would stress the poor fish, zaps of laser lights flashing at them.

It would like be living in a permanent disco ) Just another ploy to seperate an aquarist with his money.

If at first you DO succeed, try not to look astonished.

On a more practical note, perhaps it's that it lights up specks of debris floating around in the water so you know you have to change it...

Don't forget what else it says: You will go to Petcoooooooooo, where the pets gooooooooooooo, and buy everything in the storeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Do they give you a cd to play while you look into the treasure chest lights?

*Plugs in treasure chests and pushes play on cd*

(in the background noise of the cd, you can hear people doing mediation noises)

OOOOOooooooommmmmm....OOOOOOOOoooooommmmmmm...look into the liiiiiiiiiiight...you are sooooooo tiiiiiiired...your eyes are heeaaaaavyyyyyyyyyy. You will do regular water changessssssssssss....you will properly stock your taaaaaaaaank......you will not overfeeeeeeeeeeeeeed......

Well, who knows... Maybe it DOES work. Maybe it zaps the owner of the tank into doing more maintenence on the tank, thereby yielding longer lifespans, etc.

well... jake... so glad you had much fun with this post

i think on the label, it says that the laser is ok for the fish, but it also states that its bad for your eyes.... well, i dunno what to say.

maybe i'll hook up a laser pen pointer to my aquarium... see if anything gets fried next morning. ]

True but I haven't seen any that work at a LPS

we have them at the LFS I work at, I think there BS.

HEY!!!]:| Don't think teenagers don't know anything about fish! I'm sure I've seen a teen around here... Oh wait! That's me!

days ago, i saw at petco they got some laser stuff that i think you are suppose to put in the water, and it benefits the fish?? i didnt have time to get a better look at them, but they are kind of like ornaments, but outputs some laser beams...anybody know more about this?

Well, my initial reaction when I read this thread wasn't so histerical as Jake was but it was definitely something like "OK whatever, another piece of trash thats obviously isn't needed." You know, just like when your local teen employee at your LFS says "You don't need to worry about ammonia, just drop them all in the day you buy them".

Oh yeah Jake, HAhahahHAhahhahaha. I never seen your reply with so much humor!! ]

Wow, that is some air operated treasure chest led light laser thingie. Increases lifespan of fish! Purifies water! Increases disease resistance!

And here I've been doing all these water changes, properly acclimating new fish, keeping constant water parameters, properly stocking my tanks, and using good filtration all this time... IF ONLY I HAD KNOWN!!! The lid flopping up and down on a treasure chest bubbler, exposing lasers would have been so much easier! AND it says I can use up to FIVE of them for every 20 gallons!!! NO WAY! Anything this great for fish AND I could get 18 of them for my 75 gallon too?!?!?! My fish will be GODS!

Caution: Laser light. Avoid direct eye exposure.
Keep out of reach of children

Ok, so I'll have to outfit my fish with special goggles, and make sure myself and the kids have welding masks on when watching the fish, but OMG it's SO WORTH IT!!!

right, however, in a tank that is setup already it'll probably be ok since all the beneficial bacteria are in your gravel and your filter? and they laser can only eliminate so much anyways.

I don't know if I've seen this in person (they don't have it at the small Petco I work at). I would take all the claims with a spoonfull of salt though. I don't think it could possibly live up to those claims and even if it did kill bacteria that would mean you'd lose beneficial bacteria in the tank... doesn't sound that great to me.

yup, and they got like light house ones, and other decorative pieces too. so i guess this is more like a fish thearapy?

and it says it increases fish life span, eliminates basteria, and increases disease resistance. sounds like its osmething worth my buck, kinda like UV in a way than. but i dont want cheesy decoration in my tank:%)

This is what ur talking about

http://www.petco.com/product_info.asp?familyid=8474&sku=6048200042&tab=3&dept_id=1043&c1=1038&c2=1043&c3=&ct1=D%E9cor&ct2=Laser+Systems&ct3=



my friend had a different laser and the fish were putting there fins in it, Maybe it made them feel good

no, not UV rays. you know how they have those treasure chests that opens when air bubbles built up inside?? well they got one that opens and shoots out like laser. and they make ones thats like a light house and shoots out laser. and on the boxes they say its beneficial to fish.

beats me:%)
