The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the following.
The examining attorney has searched the Office records and has found no similar registered or pending mark which would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. Section 704.02.
The identification of goods in International Class 11 is unacceptable as indefinite because the applicant must more clearly identify the nature of the goods. The applicant may adopt the following identification, if accurate:
Class 11: Aquarium filtration apparatus. TMEP §1402.01.
Please note that, while an application may be amended to clarify or limit the identification, additions to the identification are not permitted. 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06. Therefore, the applicant may not amend to include any goods that are not within the scope of goods set forth in the present identification.
The goods in Class 7 are acceptable.
