Tetra Whisper Internal Aquarium Power Filter with BioScrubber

This filter has worked better than any I have EVER purchased. 2 giant goldfish in a 30 gallon tank. This filter is reliable and works well I have had fish for 30 years and this impressed me! Thank you

This pump/filter is great. It is very quiet and doesn't splash water everywhere like outside pumps can. It is a little big for a 20 gallon tank, would not recommend for anything smaller than 20 gal.

I initially ordered this filter in March 2021. I had it replaced after it broke during the summer, and the replacement just died as well. I'm not happy with this filter at all, it just stops working for seemingly no reason. The gaps on the intake are also large enough that it sucked up and killed two of my smaller fish. It's easy to put together and install, but I can't say anything positive beyond that. Going to toss it and try something else!

It works well although I take filter out to rinse every other day to extend the life of filter and the water in the tank. So the filter last longer and I don’t have to clean my turtle tank more often. Save time and money and less garbage made too!

turtles love it, and they keep playing under the waterfall. i like the sound of the water too (:

It’s a good filter for its price but disappointing in some areas. It may not be visually pleasing depending on your tank, it looks a bit too big for a 10gal. It is decently quiet and if you have a fan or something else, it’s drowned out. Kinda disappointed that the 5-10 gallon filter has a speed adjustment and this one doesn’t. If your on a budget it’s a pretty good filter.

I was really worried about the size of the whole thing but it cleaned up my foggy water and has kept it crystal clear since!

I feel like it takes up a lot of space but it’s working well and my fish and snails don’t mind it

If you don't mind getting the original foam filters and not the updated BioScrubber filter, they work like normal. They self start back up if you have a power outtage, no need to prime back up. All ten are working perfectly as new and as long as the intake slots are submerged with water, they are strong enough to pull water the rest of the way up to keep water flowing if you want to do a partial water change and not have to turn them off. Great for fish with high oxygen requirements. I ordered ten of the Tetra Whisper Internal Aquarium Power Filter with BioScrubber, 20-40 gal. All ten of them had the original foam filters instead of the BioScrubber filters. I had a large shipment of fish show If you don't mind getting the original foam filters and not the updated BioScrubber filter, they work like normal.

I had a large shipment of fish show up the same day my filters showed up, so I couldn't risk returning them and trying to find ten replacements locally on the same day. I contacted chewy customer service and they could not send me the missing BioScrubbers to complete my order, but wanted me to do a return and reorder. This was not feasible due to my fish needing them immediately. Just bad timing for getting not what I ordered. … more

I've had this filter for a few months now and I must say that it has done an AMAZING job at keeping the water in my turtle tank crystal clear. I was a little skeptical when I bought it but over time it has proven to be one of my best purchases ever for my little friends. Happy Turtles, Happy Life!
