It's not on the homepage anymore Sad

Good thing I saved the link!!! lol!

Just ordered 5, didn't think it was going to work at first. On the first checkout page I clicked the "checkout with paypal" link and an error came back that the total wasn't correct. I clicked the regular check out button, got everything filled out and paid with credit card... went right thru.

Here's the link:

Get em while you can!!!

From what I "heard", The $19.99 filters were older ones that they had in the warehouse, same exact filter but the new ones come with biomedia. Again, that's just what I heard.

I think they are for Pet store set up . This is the same packaging they were in when I ordered them for my shops use . Then all were in the glossy boxes for shelf sales . Anyway old is good with me considering I still have 3 going that were purchased in 1979 . redneck redneck redneck thumbs up

Those A/C 70's are seconds (but I sure cannot tell the difference),they came right from the manufacturer and by-passed Hagen to go to Big Als.
Great deal none the less,,,I grabbed 3!
Oh and by the way Hagen is not covering the warranty,,,so you would have to send it back to Big Als,,,just makes sense though.

Cheers,Larry

I don't think they are seconds . All 12 I have run , make no noise & fit together right. Even the lids fit better than some of the last 1's @ full price & the glossy box , which is the only difference .

I bought a bunch of these when I first saw the deal, along with biomax and some extra sponge. They all came in the same packaging my local store has them in and have worked flawlessly. I would suggest using the mag drive 2-5 sponge prefilter on the intake tube if you use sand as a substrate however.

I have never liked my ACs very much and have had the worst luck with them, but decided to try one last time because I needed another filter for my pleco tank with all of the poop they've been making. This was such a good deal that it was worth one more try.

I should have known better. AquaClears and I do not get along! bangin

This is the third and final AC that I will open and find already broken before it even came out of the box. No more for me. Evil or Very Mad

Cracked and a broken corner.

Bad luck Betty! The only thing i´m unhappy about is the way my AC 110 warms up my tank. The effect is 60 watts and that is way to much. It heats up the tank to 84-86F during winter time. So there is no way that I can have it during summer.
