Product supplement might be helpful

Arrived seemingly broken. However my 11 year old son built it for his fish tank and found it so quiet he couldn't hear a sound. The thing never worked.

Pros
  • Good marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Great for turtles for training

After figuring out the assembly myself I really liked it. My turtle loves it too. I wish the top was bigger for my tortoise to sit on. I need to change my rating. It hasn't worked since I bought it a week ago. I have a 40.00 deco in my aquarium and no filter yet

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • There are downsides

Excellent seller good product.

Looks great in a terrarium pond area, wish the pump was more accessible. If it's clogged, I have to remove all the product to get to the bottom of the pump. Very happy with the seller, fast delivery and helped a lot when the first item arrived with little damage.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons

Turtle Aquarium Filter

Not happy with the filter, not enough power to circulate the water. The water no longer flows through the filter. The engine hums, but the water does not flow. I didn't bother to return it, I used it as decoration and the turtles like to stand on it. My tank is only 20 liters. I have always used two pumps, bought these to replace the smaller one I had.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Arrived broken as another reviewer said.

Very poor quality control. The shipping box was in perfect condition but the filter box was crumpled on the corner meaning it was SHIPPED that way. They didn't even open the box to see if the item was broken and it was. I managed to put gravel around it to try and get it to work. The water filter doesn't seem to let much water through. Concerned about how well it filters.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Volume

Durable, silent, waterfall filter and jetty.

Well packaged in bubble wrap. The assembly was easy, at first I wasn't sure if I put the water filter in correctly, but I contacted the support team and they helped me a lot. The waterfall/filter looks a lot better than regular blacks, it's very quiet and produces a soothing waterfall sound. It's higher than I originally expected, but I'm not upset about it. My turtle is so small I don't think it will climb up. I love the product and recommend it!

Pros
  • Simple design
Cons
  • No

Pump does not work well for aquarium decoration

First of all I LOVE the design and size! But. I didn't listen when many reviews said the pump was defective. So now all I have is a giant platform that collects trash and feces instead of filtering or moving water. I was convinced that I could improvise a pump from another filter, but unfortunately nothing worked out with his design. If the pump worked it would definitely be a five star item! I wish the contact seller link was easier to find so I don't have to leave a bad review. I would still…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Protection

No instructions, LARGE, barely fits in a 10 gallon tank Lasts 4 months

UPDATE ***Four months of work, dead dead. Doesn't draw water and doesn't run at all. Now I need a new filter and a new location. It's her favorite place to sunbathe and I have to clean it up because he's dead. Waste of money, look elsewhere! Absolutely no instructions, can't figure out where to put the cable. I threaded it through the top but now the top doesn't sit flush because there is no cord hole. In the pictures the pump isn't actually installed so I can't figure out where it is. I've…

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Tip for new turtle owners

So you want a turtle. Congratulations on purchasing one of nature's finest poop machines! You may have realized that you need a bathing area and filtration, which led you to this product page here. So the question is, can this filter handle your little defecation wizard? I use it, but only for hatchlings. This filter will never be enough to deal with an adult turtle's massive fecal attack, and don't expect it either. However, I still recommend some modifications for your children's toys. First,

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
