Useless Filter for Aquariums

The MarineLand Penguin Foam Filter Model is a waste of your Pet Supplies. It does not clean the water or remove debris, causing frequent water changes. The only positive is the affordable price. Unfortunately, the cons outweigh the pros, leaving your aquarium unclean and your fish in a hazardous environment.

Pros
  • Effective in removing debris and waste from aquarium water
Cons
  • Requires regular cleaning and maintenance to prevent clogging and maintain optimal filtration efficiency

Do not buy from Fish & Aquatic Pets

The foam is too dense resulting in high water stress which means very limited access. The idea is to block large objects, but this foam is wrong. You should be able to lift the foam out of the water and easily drain the water. This holds water like a sponge, and sponges are not filters. This is the last time I trust Marineland products. There are better mfg.

Pros
  • Easy Care: Rinse the foam monthly or as needed in an already established aquarium to protect good bacteria.
Cons
  • Empty

Works great, no water flow issues

I use it in a Penguin Pro 375 and was concerned that others would complain about the flow but I've been using it for two weeks now and my wheels are still turning great. One star off because I had to cut it to fit. I probably wouldn't deduct a star if Marineland provided installation documentation. for optional media) Cut the sponge along the first line. Insert sponge. It can be difficult to push the filter all the way down, so use something blunt to push it through the hole in the sponge while

Pros
  • Biofoam: Traps dirt and debris and supports the growth of beneficial bacteria - improves biological filtration.
Cons
  • Not bad but...
