Collection: General Maintenance

Everything That Fits Nowhere Else

Every aquarium throws up jobs that belong to no particular category — a fish that needs catching, a pump losing flow, tools with no home. That is what this collection covers.

What's Here

• Fish traps — collapsible traps in three sizes plus a floating trap, for catching a fish without dismantling the aquascape.
• Pest and snail traps — in-tank traps for unwanted hitchhikers.
• Aquarium tweezers — long, corrosion-resistant tweezers for placing and retrieving.
• Magnetic tool holders — park scrapers and tweezers on the glass instead of the floor.
• Pump cleaner — descaling powder for soaking pumps, powerheads and impellers.
• Bucket and tank clips — hold a hose steady while draining or filling.
• Plant anchors — weight plants until they root.
• Heat and ice packs — insulation for livestock and perishable shipments.

Descale pumps on a schedule instead of waiting for a stall. Scale reduces flow gradually enough that it escapes notice, and a pump soaked twice a year holds its output far longer than one cleaned only once it starts to rattle. Questions? Email info@jlaquatics.com. Ships across Canada.
