Help! What turkey baster brand do you use??

[madweazl]

I liked the Julian's Thing when I was spot feeding but havent done so in about two years now.

I use a Kent Marine Seasquirt feeder. Extends up to 35 inches. Works pretty good, but does dribble out some contents at times.

Thank you all so much for your time, links and replies. I really appreciate it. I am going to def practice with just water like Xam had mentioned. Try taping up the long crappy one I got. And if I just can't get it to work will purchase one from the links you guys shared. I'd like to NOT have to purchase anything because good lord this hobby is expensive lol. And I don't have a fancy setup. Would love to! But for now trying to get keep what I have alive and work with what I have. Ty again everyone! Loving this forum!

I use a 60 or 100 cc syringe connected to a cheap plastic rod by a piece of air tubing. Its much more powerful than a turkey baster - can be used for target feeding - and you dont need to get yoru hands in the water.

You can get the rod for about 2 dollars and a small piece of air tubing - all you need is the type of syringe that has a smooth 'connector' not the lear-lock type.

I use this because it comes apart easy for cleaning and goes back together easy. Others can be junk. Once apart they never seal back up

I also use a extra long baster (home brew kind). to feed corals way down in my tank. It also serves as a good thing to blow off rocks and sand on the far side of the tank.

I just got these recently and so far I love them. You can remove the tip for cleaning and it was only $9 for two of them so I have one for my DT and one for my QT. Plus the bulbs are different colors so I always know which is for which tank!

I only and I do mean only use the OXO turkey baster! All the rest of them fall apart in very little time. Julien Sprungs "thing" is also a great tool according to some and a piece of junk according to others... I think it may come down to what people's expectations for the product. Most of my friends love it; I personally have never used it. I cannot tell you how many turkey basters I have owned over the years and OXO has been the only one that I have had rave reviews over. They are sold at Target and probably Bed Bath and Beyond as well (they sell a lot of OXO products).
