Habitat - Indoor :: good place to get filters

[goatfarmer123]

hello! i was wondering if anyone knew of a good either online site or place to get filters. walmart and petsmart are both pretty expensive... any ideas? Thanks!

www.bigalsonline.com is just about my favorite place to get them (some other supplies as well). Their prices are very reasonable. You may be able to find a better price at a site that's having a sale, but for just going and buying a filter, big al's has always been good for me.

I normally buy filters and accessories from either www.bigalsonline or www.drfostersmith.com.

I also buy from either www.bigalsonline.com or www.drfostersmith.com

One thing, I think drfostersmith.com charges extra freight on large filters and heavy items. They seem to have more sales than Big Al's, so you might catch a break... and they have exceptional customer service.

I don't know about yours but the nearest Walmart from here is pretty reasonable with filters. I find Whisper filters on there decent for the size they are designed for. I would go on Tetra's site to search for the nearest dealer with the filters. I don't know if you have to register or not, so someone will have to help you with that.

I got both my filters at Wal-Mart and they were kind of exspensive...but completely worth it! Also, try and by a size bigger then your tank. I love my filters but they have to be cleaned all the time and they quit working after a few hours.... I wish I had bought bigger. lol

I recently posted a deal for several different kinds of filters in the "deals" section. Ends early Sept.
