Turtle Sheldon is a messy little guy

Seriously, his tank got cloudy SO fast! enter the Turtle Clear Filter, a total lifesaver. This thing’s a beast, it keeps his water crystal clear with almost no noise..

Totally worth it even with my clumsy hands.

My betta kept flaring like it was mad at the world, and the water smelled funky even after cleaning. I tried the filter and honestly it fixed the mess fast. Flow

My betta kept flaring like it was mad at the world, and the water smelled funky even after cleaning. I tried the filter and honestly it fixed the mess fast. Flow is gentle so my betta still glides around, not getting tossed. Installation was easy but I did spill water LOL!!. Now the tank looks clear, fish is calmer, and I am not stressing every morning

Didn’t work!

I bought this for a 2.5 gallon tank and it did not keep the water clean at all. It may have even caused damage to my betta due to stress because shortly after installing

I bought this for a 2.5 gallon tank and it did not keep the water clean at all. It may have even caused damage to my betta due to stress because shortly after installing this he was flopped over on his side. (I stopped using it and am feeding him less and he’s thankfully ok now!) Chewy customer service was helpful and replaced the initial filter I was sent in case it was defective, but the replacement was no better. This thing simply would not keep the water clean.

Very efficient and easy to use

On the quiet side. Easy to assemble easy to use. Easy to wash too. But I added a sponge on the intake pipe so that my betta fins don’t get sucked in.

Doesn't fit plastic framed tanks

Won't it over a tank plastic frame. Lid was cracked don delivery. That wasn't a big deal. Even if it did fit it struggled to work properly even when filled with

Won't it over a tank plastic frame. Lid was cracked don delivery. That wasn't a big deal. Even if it did fit it struggled to work properly even when filled with water and placed in water to clean or in the tank.
