Zilla Aquatic Reptile Internal Aquarium Filter

I’ve had this filter for nearly a week and can say it has helped with keeping my turtles tank clean longer. I must add I also use other agents that aid in its water staying clear as well. My favorite part is the silence of the filtering. My turtle seems to love the filter as well. It moved to lay right under the filtered water when I placed it back inside its tank. If you have an aquatic turtle or any turtle you know how fast their tanks can get dirty. I great filter is a must. I received this product from a CashBack program. 

This filter works great and I like how it conveniently suction cups to the wall of the tank. The filters are also easily replaceable. The filter fits well in our 40 gallon tank that is about 1/3 of the way full of water.

I love this filter! It’s heavy duty, it filters quickly, and it’s very quiet! It sticks well to the glass so you don’t have to worry about it falling off or moving around. I have a large turtle who is very active and he has no problems. The color is neat because it blends into my tank background well. It definitely gets the job done!

This is good for a 40 gallon tank. Also, included are suction cups and hanging clips that make installation quick and easy. A protective grate is in place to prevent the animal from entering the filter. It also helps with getting rid of odor, waste, and debris.

So throughout the years of owning my turtles I've gone through quite a lot of different water filters. This one was by far the worse one of all the bunch, it doesn't pick up any waste at all. Everything just ended up at the bottom of the tank, never getting sucked into the filter. The only semi positive thing about the filter was that it's very quiet, but that doesn't outweigh the function of the item.

I bought this for my 20 gal turtle pond trying to replace a Repto filter and give my turtle more room. The Zilla is a bit short and due to the shape of the pond I could not secure it to the sides, turtle liked to use it for a step sending it to the bottom. I moved it to a 20 gal fish tank where I have been using 2 Auqa-Tech filters. The Zilla needed to be set further down so it could be secured to the glass making me lower the water level a few inches. After a day's use alongside 1 Auqa-Tech, the Zilla could not perform as well. My fish are large and need the fuller tank so the Zilla has been set aside. The Zilla would probably be fine in a tank with a lower waterline and small fish or small I bought this for my 20 gal turtle pond trying to replace a Repto filter and give my turtle more room.

I've had two of these for two different tanks, I believe they are 20 gallon tanks and they work pretty well. I've consolidated to two 20 gallon tanks into a 55 gallon tank and now I have them both in the same tank and they are still working. I need to replace the one because I've had it for a few years and it's starting to make noises and such. I have two turtles in the same 55 gallon tank sand the water stays pretty clear for around a month and a half. Then we pump it the water and replace it with clean water. I'll keep buying these.

This filter worked pretty good for my 20 gallon tank. I’ve used others before and this one I would say is comparable to others. I do think next time I will be purchasing a larger one because it might take better care of my 20 gallon.

I was skeptical after reading some of the other reviews, but I actually like this filter. It was very easy to setup and works great. I received cash back for my purchase for participating in a cash back program.

We have bought these filters multiple times because turtles are dirty, really dirty and these seem to work really well at first. They are an inexpensive filter but they don't seem to last long for us.
