Detailed product description

Toxic gases caused by decaying matter and fish waste can become trapped under the ice. The TetraPond® De-Icer is a winter survival solution for fish, keeping an area of your pond ice-free to allow harmful gases to escape through the opening. The energy-efficient thermostat control shuts off power when not needed. The natural stone finish blends with your pond’s surroundings. This 300-watt device is effective down to -20 degrees. Includes a 3-year limited warranty (see product packaging for details). UL Listed. Never break the ice to create an opening in ice on the surface of your pond – you’ll risk causing harmful shockwaves that can injure or even kill your fish. In extreme cold areas, where ice cover lasts for a long time, install a bubbler in addition to your de-icer. Keep the bubbler close to the surface of the water —like its name suggests, a bubbler produces thousands of bubbles that replenishes valuable oxygen in your pond, helping your fish survive. Since 1951, Tetra has developed the world’s most comprehensive body of fish food knowledge, and fishkeeping enthusiasts have looked to the brand for products and solutions that add ease and beauty to their home. Whether you're an experienced hobbyist or just starting out, Tetra has everything you need – from a large variety of quality fish food and innovative equipment to test kits and decor.

POND DE-ICER: Keeps an area of your pond free from ice WINTER SURVIVAL SOLUTION: Allows toxic gases from decaying matter to escape from under ice during the winter EFFECTIVE: Works in temperatures as low as -20 degrees 300-WATTS: Features a 15 foot power cord and thermostatically controlled shutoff NATURAL FINISH: Stone finish complement’s your pond’s surroundings

Bought this for winter. Well, we had the worst winter weather in years. Set records for temperatures. Negative 45 below zero with the wind chill. Water around the de-icer never froze. Great product. I am super happy

I have owned 3 of these. I have had two get water in it. I was close to my 3 yr warranty and no receipt but had box and tetra pond replaced with no questioned asked. The one they warranties two years ago was a different problem but after two years I have water in this one now. Just called cust svc and they are sending a new one out but with no further warranty. The warranty is based on original purchase. But they did a one time courtesy so tetras cust svc is #1. I asked about water problem if anything being corrected to solve issue and she that would be an engineering concern. I am going to write the company regarding the issue. If the deicer fills with water I will probably try a different brand. For now I'll stand by tetrapond. Love the deicer.

Works for a season then fills with water just into next winter. After that it trips out the ground fault.

i purchased this product in october 2010. it worked great last winter season. when the weather got cold again this year and i put the de-icer into the pond it didn't do anything. the pond iced over and i had difficulty getting the deicer out of the frozen ice. i am hoping tetra stands behind their product and upholds their warranty. i did buy another deicer for this year hoping for a better result while i wait for tetra to uphold their warranty on the first item. my pond is only about 120 gallons with 3 goldfish

Purchased the unit two seasons ago, of course, didn't save my receipt. I only needed it the first season, needed it last year and it did not work. Literally literally used it two times. I tried Support and the unit is actually four years old. Waste of money.

We bought and used the deicer for half of last winter. After our first cold snap this year, we woke to find it frozen in the ice. After poring hot water on it to remove it, I touched the underside and it was not even warm. I know it was getting power as that same outlet is used for our aerator. Now I have to pay to send a faulty unit back but even that does me no good as we need a heater NOW to save our fish - not in weeks from now. As I read various reviews online, way too many people have had this same problem. It is clear this is a poorly made deicer and Tetra should stop selling it.

I dont' just go by one review when I purchase something so the negative review didn't scare me off... it should have however. Mine is stuck in the pond after it quit working and now with this sub zero weather I won't get it out until Spring probably. I am buying another more reliable one #I hope# but it probably won't be anyting from Tetra.

Bad design

Reviewed in the USA on 2023-02-18T16:00:00

I've owned a few of these for a small pond close to my house. They all work good but eventually they leak water which trips the breaker. To me the plastic top seals right at the waterline. Each one leaks water right there. Either a bad design or a money making design. Thumbs down.
