Review on Tetra Whisper Power Filter 10 Gallons: Silent 3-Stage Aquarium Filtration for Optimum Cleanliness (26316) by Lacey Barbee

Revainrating 3 out of 5

WARNING on the label. Read before you buy.

I bought this to clean the water in my Morka. We use a water additive, and just throwing it away when food comes in gets expensive. So I bought it to customize for her. It works great. But I suggest it. WARNING is written in small letters on the bottom of the carton. "The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), IARC and EPA have determined that 1,3-butadiene is a human carcinogen. Studies have shown that workers exposed to 1,3-butadiene may have an increased risk of developing cancer of the stomach, blood and lymphatic system. I'm very excited, to the point of tears, and I pray it doesn't hurt her! My father died of stomach cancer. I have gastroparesis! I am at high risk in many ways. I just never expected anyone to knowingly risk other people's lives. Why is this even legal?

Pros
  • REFILLS Change cartridges monthly if using medium Tetra Whisper Bio-Bag cartridges (refills sold separately)
Cons
  • Not bad
