I love it. works great.

First I put a sponge from Fluval edge pre-filter on the intake. Prefect fit don't settle for cheaper or other knock offs even longer time and results in a more refined pre biofilter. I have a 10 gallon so it is set on low, or now. with some manipulation of slim foam pads for cushioning from minute vibration directed to the glass and rim of the tank. even a small chunk of rubber for the leveling part. a tad of Vaseline on the shaft and O-ring and i replaced the carbon with matrix from Seachem. Positioning the lid correctly results in a quiet non vibrating or loud operation. I sleep next to it all i hear is the ambient water quietly pouring in smoothly, It's been smooth ever since the first priming of pump. I got a 2.3w 5v 220 liter/hr inline pump I am going to squeeze the 1/2 tubing on the side of the telescoping intake where it first comes in when its set set on high the output will still be as low as 10gal flow, as the intake sucking out of the top of the filter where it first comes in will divert through an-inline UV 3watt passing though thermo-electric Chiller and finally out putting in the old Aquaclear 10 HOB filter with that pump removed. I squoze in a Ehiem filter from a skimmer perfect fit in the intake to direct flow as I flipped the upholster and added the rest of the Seachem matrix and added Fluval Biomax to both filters along with the c-nodes staked in the compartment more towards the top with the nice trickle rain simulating effects and aerobic help with breakdown and the result. Beautiful. Clear water, I even got Purigen and haven't used it yet, planted, not fully completed cured cycled tank but good added Seachem Stability and Dr Tim's one and only nitrifying solution., but still so freaking clear. It came chipped from shipping the downpour part was easily superglued with advanced hobby glue.Read full review...

Filters for fish tanks

This filter does not clean as good as the tetra Whisper EX30. The Tetra filter really cleans better in a much shorter time. I would use this filter (Fluval) only on tanks with a small number of fish. It's fine for keeping the water clean if it's not prown to getting dirty.Read full review...

Finally, a filter that keeps working great!!

I have been through Tetra's Penn Flex's filters and finally wised up and did research on the best filter. I trusted the other 2 because I had success with them before. Every current review I did, for filters 30 gal and down said Fluval was, by far the best. They weren't lying. My other filters I had to clean about every 2 weeks. I have 4 tanks so this was getting old. Since I have bought these, they are still running like I just set them up. In fact, they run better than those other 2 when the other 2 were brand new! I never heard of this company, before I did research, but they have a new customer, for sure!!Read full review...
