Does this filter come with everything needed to set up and start aquarium? Would it work for a 40 gallon breeder size tank that houses 4 goldfish and 2 algae eaters?

The Marineland Magniflow 220 Canister Filter comes with everything you need. It filters 200 gallons per hour and is suitable for tanks up to 55 gallons.

Any tips for quieting the waterfall? We have a turtle tank so the water does not reach the top of the aquarium and the water has to fall which makes it noisy.

Answer by ChewySep 23, 2021
You can raise the water level in the tank since turtles generally love deeper water for swimming and use a floating dock for basking. The other option is to remove the diffuser from the outlet and attach vinyl tubing to the outlet tubing. You can find this by the foot at a local DIY hardware store’s plumbing section. You will need tubing that is 5/8 inches ID.

Is this a quiet filter? Do you hear it when in the same room?
