The Marina Aqua-Minder has been designed to provide all aquariums with continuous temperature monitoring as well as a basic maintenance schedule.

The Aqua-Minder will flash and beep when a given maintenance function is due, and/or the temperature has dropped or exceeded the programmed values. This is what I wanted it for - great feature.

The Aqua-Minder will visually and audibly assist you in taking care of your aquarium

I won my auction for the price of $24.95 with a delivery fee of $3.50 which is better than the retail price of $39.95
