Honestly I’d say it’s worth buying but only when they do the half off sale tbh but I wish it came with better instructions so I would recommend to watch a ton of different tutorials before you set it up and i didn’t know that you had to put the outtake fully submerged into the water, would’ve been helpful if it came in the instructions honestly or maybe it’s just mine that was being weird but it doesn’t make a lot of noise just a humming noise I guess. I personally prefer it over a waterfall noise. Also it can get super messy setting it up so make sure to have a lot of rags with you and use garden scissors to cut the hoses for a clean cut. Also buy bio media before setting it up because it doesn’t come with
This filter does an amazing job. But getting it to actually prime was a major effort. Don't give up! My filter is for a red eared slider and they are notoriously dirty. Because the water level is not to the top, the sound of the outflow water hitting the tank water is extremely loud. I'm still working on that. But very happy that this works so well.
don't waste ur money... very frustrating. i've read through the manual and kept trying for two months now and i am finally giving up. it does not work.
This was my second purchase of this product. I originally purchased the smaller version and could not pass this up when I saw the price. So far I am very happy with my upgrade.
Nice price and quite, moves the water at 200 gph. Use for both of our 75 gallon turtle tanks. Happy so far
followed the instructions to a tee and it does not work.
Only works some of the time it's a headache and wasn't worth buying I'm going to buy a different brand as soon as I can and will be to over joyed when I can finally break this worthless filter with a large object
I bought this filter to use as a gravel washing filter for my freshwater tank. It is extremely well made and works like a charm. I've read other reviews that complained about difficulty priming the unit but I usually fill it with tank water before starting and have not had any problem even thou I only use it to gravel wash. However the unit is so well made and reliable, I would have used it as my primary filter if I was at all unhappy with my Seachem hang on back filter. I highly recommend this filter for tanks in the 20-30 gallon size.
It was easy to put together but it is tall it was almost 12 inches high plus the hoses at least the hoses can move around it almost did not work for me I built the stand many years ago for my 55gal tank and it barely worked. I had other tank filters under it.
Having more than one aquarium and aquariums for many years I'm not a fan of this filter. Added media to the top 2 trays, set up correctly but does not keep aquarium clean and clear. My other tanks are perfect with no issues. Always over compensate filter size as well. Been almost a month running getting ready to change filters. Not impressed don't waste the time.
