in my 2.5 gallons. Fits filters

I have a 2.5 gallon faucet and was trying to find a better filter than the one that came with the tank. I didn't like the air pump filter I tried in this tank, it didn't seem to do anything. I needed one with a motor and pump and actual flow. This works well for this tank. The opal floats around in the aquarium and is not thrown by the current or anything like that. also not sucked into the intake stream. I took off a star because I want to find a better way to hang this on the side of the…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • I will add later

LOOKS FANTASTIC, WORKS EVEN BETTER!

I have a 20 gallon reef tank with tons of live rock that already serves as a filter for my tank. That's why I bought the 10 gallon version. Filtering is not the reason I bought this. I bought this because I had high phosphate levels and the treatment I would use for it requires an outboard transom filter. My flashlight doesn't allow hanging a rear filter, so I had to look for an internal filter. I didn't like the Tetra Whisperers and all the other internal filters just because they were either…

Good but noisy: Filter

Bought to replace an external filter which was very difficult to service. The advantages of this device are that it is very easy to set up and the filtering is amazing. I have a very dirty aquatic turtle and it cleaned the aquarium very well in about 24 hours. Water pressure from above is good. This gives the turtle the good flow it needs because it's a little chubby and I want it to have to work for the food. It perfectly destroys the surface tension of the water, which was not the case with…

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Damaged

Loved it after initial hesitation

I'm editing this after running the filter for about a year and increasing my rating from 3 to 5 stars. I continue to edit after using this for almost 2 years. .This filter is very quiet and has a very low flow rate which is great for my betta which is in a 5 gallon aquarium (I use a 3 gallon filter). I have one rooster that loves strong flow and the other doesn't. I didn't know how good this was until I got my second betta and used a different filter. Other filters I've tried make a noisy nose…

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Unreliable

HUGE 40 gallon FILTER. But so far it works fine and quietly.

Well, the name speaks for itself. The filter measures about 10.5 inches top to bottom and the only way to make it really quiet is to mount it with the 4 suction cup option (rather than hanging from 2 clips - another option. This means, that every 10 inches is visible in your I like to over filter a bit so it's actually in a 30 gallon tank but rectangular so not really that much smaller than a size 40. Water splashes like a waterfall and I am used to an internal filter with a very low noise…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Vulgarity
