TARARIUM Aquarium Filter Powerful 260GPH for 35-75 Gallon Fish Tank Small Pond Fountain, Wave-Maker Submersible Water Pump Turtle Tank Filter for Saltwater & Freshwater System

Not bad, easy to set up. A few reviews complaining about the air flow blowing their fish around and no way to stop/slow it. I just had to stop by Petsmart and purchase a new air line and an air line controller. I was able to adjust the flow of bubbles. Only 3 stairs because even though it wasn’t bad - it couldn’t keep my tank clean for more than a day or two.

This little fish filter is actually pretty awesome. It’s very quiet compared to the waterfall version filters and I like the current it offers. The fish seemed to really like it. It’s also very easy to clean although you do need to clean it a bit more often because it sits much lower in the tank

During my aquaristic journey, I’ve tried out different types of filters, most prominently HOBs. It was only that I decided I wanted to go with an internal filter for my 20G long full time, the reason being, I wanted a less cluttered look on the back of my tank, and I wanted to place the filter in a corner. I never enjoyed the look of the inlet pipe of my HOB being almost in the middle of the tank’s back wall. Now, this filter is rated for a minimum size of 35 gallon. It’s really strong, and I had to adapt the outlet pipe in order to make it work in a 20G long. Modification was easy with one of the three sponges that came with it enlarging the output and another smaller sponge I had laying around placed inside the larger sponge breaking and obstructing the flow of the output down to a gentle current that still reaches the end of the tank. Without these modifications, the current was too violent for the shape and size of my aquarium given the fact the filter is not recommended for sizes below 35 gallons. Nevertheless, I believe if the manufacturer added a flow control to this design, it could be the perfect application for a variety of tank sizes. The compartments are easy to detach and attach to the motor housing. I can only use two of the three compartments due to the smaller height of my tank. You can fill them with any media you prefer. No surprises here. Another boon is the fact my water changes now are done super easily. I attach a hose I already had from a different application, and easily drain the tank to the level I want to. While this is not vacuuming the ground, I have an Eheim gravel vacuum for precisely this need. In terms of operational noises, I cannot hear the filter at all. If this one lasts several or many years, I think I’ve found my favorite filter model at last.

Upon picking up the box, water drops were falling out. Opened the box and the inside was saturated with water, the instructions are all wet and unreadable. The filter was in a plastic bag half full of water, upon inspection of the filter it's missing 3 of the 4 suction cups.......This is absolutely unacceptable....

Easy to clean! Works really well. Made life easier.
