Well made, quiet, creative, customizable

Well made quiet filter for a small aquarium. I use it in a 3 gallon shrimp tank. The insides can be designed individually. I haven't had much luck with Hygger heaters, but many of their filters have creative and well-crafted designs.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Not So Good: Aquarium Pumps and Filters

Floats out of the aquarium within a day of changing the filter because the filter doesn't flow fast enough to fill the chamber to keep it from floating out of the aquarium. Six gallon aquarium with three goldfish. Clean the tank and filter half a day after use, it pops up. Filters aren't even dirty. They just don't flow after saturation

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • High Price

Good filter for rimless aquariums

Good filter for rimless aquariums. It has a slim profile that adapts well to the side or back of the tank. It has a cartridge with charcoal and fine foam for mechanical filtration. Best of all, you can use it to pump water out of the tank. Comes with a transparent hose for water change.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Only available in white

Loud noise after two days

Installation was easy according to the instructions. Worked great for 2 days, but after 2 days it started making a weird loud gurgling sound (the water level in the tank is correct as recommended in the filter guide) and its base started floating away from the edge of the tank. I turned it off and on again, but after a few minutes a loud noise started. Turned it off again, pulled the plug and took it out. Nothing looks wrong when taking out the filter etc. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Expensive

After a month the filter is not hanging straight down

After a month and a water change the filter is not hanging straight down. It's crooked at an awkward 20 degree angle, which spoils the look of the entire tank. Aquascaping is hard work, especially when trying to keep everything balanced and natural. A permanently crooked internal filter is the LAST thing you need. Also a month later, he started making those demonic gurgling noises. I made sure all water levels were in place in the filter. Everything was clean, nothing stuck, the filter…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Modern

A good edition for my Betta

Got this little filter for my 7.5 gallon after trying the Penn Plax submersible. I have to say I'm a Hygger fan! While the Penn Crybaby helped keep the tank clean, she just wouldn't stay where I fixed her and the current seemed too much for my betta. Using Hygger I was able to create a beautiful mushroom waterfall with my hand that my betta seems to love. Since it hangs on the side of my rimless tank I don't have to worry about any suction cups or it detaching from the wall and blowing my poor…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • The list will be long.

It filters well, with modifications.

I bought this filter for my 6 gallon frameless glass top cube. I wanted an internal filter that had plenty of room for the media and liked the water change feature knowing I would be doing frequent water changes when the tank is reinstalled. The first thing I did was throw away the small carbon cartridge. and replace it with a coarse sponge cut to shape. The cartridge was flat but the filter side was curved. It takes up a lot of space and doesn't sit right next to the intakes, and I was afraid…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Non-automatic
