Progressive Marine Accudrip Acclimator

Exactly as advertised
No issues, a solid drip system. The little chamber you use to start the siphon doesn’t ever completely dry out and it’s a little difficult to rinse the whole line but it’s worth the tradeoff to just using your mouth and an airline tube.

Simple and EASY to use!
I didn’t bother to read instructions. It was simple and easy to use. Self-explanatory. It’s a suction where the tool thingy can be adjusted to allow more or less water through, thus causing the water to drip and help acclimate your fish/shrimp to their new home. 5 star review. But seeing this is all plastic and whatever, it’s a tad bit pricy. Lol.

Easy time saver
For most of my fish, I manually added in water to the fish transport bag every 15 minutes so the fish would be able to slowly adjust ph and other water parameters, which not only took awhile but also meant I had to stop what I was doing and tend to the fish multiple times per hour. With this acclimator I can just set it and come back to it a few hours later all ready to go into the aquarium. Very convenient and worth the price!

Better than making your own
I know most people will tell you to just make your own drip acclimation setup but I couldn’t find anything at my local pet stores so I resorted to Amazon. This was the only product I could find and so I went for it. I have to say it works just as described. You are in total control of the pace it drops and the curve saved me the hassle of fumbling around trying to keep the tube in the tank. Would buy again if I needed to. Worth the money for sure

Trying to get a replacement. Being asked alot of questions and picture proof. Great product, but a hazzle to get a replacement

I should have gotten this earlier. Now supplying the tank with fresh water without causing shock to my shrimps is so much easier and convenient. Look at how happy my fire red shrimps are (see last photo).Previously, I was using the water bottle drip irrigation method to do water change. I will hang the device at the edge of the shrimp tank. However, if the water bottle wasn’t steady enough when I placed it and falls, my floor will be flooded and there was a lot of cleaning to do.I don’t have this worry anymore. It’s worth the price to save me time and effort. Also, it’s a much hassle-free setup.The only downside is the hook end is not long enough to reach the bottom of the container (see second photo). Once the water reaches the end of the hook, the drip stops and I’ll transfer the remaining water to a 1L beaker, so that the hook end can get the water again. After the 1L beaker (because the hook end doesn’t reach its bottom too), I’ll repeat the process with a 500ml beaker, which is the final step where all water will be dripped out.It may sound like a lot of trouble, but it’s a lot easier than what I was doing previously. So this small hassle is still alright. ‘cos I love my shrimp babies!!!Just a suggestion to the seller, I think what could make this better is if you can provide a connecting tube for the hook, to solve the problem I have. I’d think other aquarium hobbyists may also encounter this. In the meantime, I’ll find a suitable tube size for the hook end and improve on this on my own (maybe I’ll cut the other end of this device…hmm). Hope this review has been useful.
