Quiet and does its job.

This filter is ideal for small aquariums. The water flow is very good, it doesn't overwhelm the plants and substrate but just enough to keep the water moving. It is very quiet and keeps my aquarium clean and tidy. I recommend this filter.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Update availability

Just use a regular sponge filter

I've used this filter on 20 gallons and it does the job, it's just not the best filter I've used. I tried to get away from the bulky classic sponge filters, but after two months of use I decided to just go back to the regular sponge filter. The entire filter accumulates with algae very quickly and the suction sponge does not work as efficiently as it is a small area to clean as plant parts and other debris cover/clog it fairly quickly.

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Empty

WILL NOT WORK, WILL KILL SHRIMP

This product is terrible. WILL NOT WORK FOR SHRIMP. SUCK AND KILL THEM. I recently bought a kit that makes aqueon for shrimp. The kit included this filter, light and tank. Everything went smoothly and I put 6 shrimp in the aquarium. They were all gone in about a day! I thought they were hiding but turns out this filter was sucking them in and they were ALL dead in the filter! I even took the filter apart to see if the sponge was bad or something and it was. The sponge does not prevent shrimp…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
