Turtle Tank Filter Internal Power Aquarium Filter Low Water Level Biofiltration 290GPH Large Fish Tank Filter for 30 to 55 Gallon Aquarium Turtle Shrimp Frog

This filter came fully assembled, ready to go right out of the box! No assembly required! I have a 55-gallon turtle tank with about 30 gallons of water. I love that I can adjust the flow with this filter to make the water go faster or more of a trickle. It has four suction cups on the back, which means I can adjust where I need it in the tank even if the water is too deep to set it on the bottom. It is fully submersible, but I prefer to have the bottom of the filter up off the bottom of the tank to prevent clogs. It has space in the back of the filter to add your own mediums as you want to. Pour a little beneficial bacteria starter into the filter and you're ready to go! My turtle can be a bit of a monster when it comes to tearing filters off and away from the glass, but she hasn't managed to move this one - excellent little suction cups in the back. Overall, I love this filter. It's quiet, it's sturdy, all parts are reusable, it came fully assembled, and it works!

I recently ordered the Turtle Tank Filter Internal Power Aquarium Filter for our 40-gallon tank, and overall, I’m impressed with its performance. It’s designed for tanks with low water levels, and this feature works perfectly for my turtle setup. The filter handles 290 GPH, which is more than enough for my 30 to 55-gallon aquarium, keeping the water clean and clear for my turtles, shrimp, and frogs.Pros:Powerful FiltrationLow Water Level AdaptabilityBiofiltration FeatureCons:SizeNoiseThe 290 GPH filtration system efficiently cleans the water, removing debris and maintaining water quality. It’s perfect for larger tanks. The filter is specially designed for lower water levels, which is ideal for turtles that need access to both land and water in their habitat. It’s great for amphibian tanks, where water levels fluctuate. The biofiltration system ensures good bacterial growth, which helps maintain a balanced ecosystem in the tank.The filter is a bit bulky, so it takes up more space inside the tank than I’d prefer. If you have a lot of decorations or plants in your aquarium, you might find it challenging to place the filter without crowding the tank. While it’s not extremely loud, the filter does make a noticeable low end hum. It’s not bothersome during the day, but if your aquarium is in a quiet room or bedroom, you might notice the sound more at night.Overall, despite the size and slight noise, this Turtle Tank Filter has done an excellent job maintaining water quality in my aquarium. It’s efficient, handles larger tanks with ease, and the low water level functionality is perfect for turtle and amphibian tanks. It’s a solid choice for anyone with a larger tank needing reliable filtration.

I expected to have to refresh the water so the filter would start on a clean base. Within a day the water turned cloudy, and I figured maybe it needs sometime to work so we changed the water a second time and more intense cleaning. Now 3 days later our water is filthy and filter works more as a waterfall than an actual filter. I’m disappointed because the reviews were misleading. I’m embarrassed to post but to show what the water looks like as of today I will post a picture.Note our tank is about 30-35 gallons and water level is a quarter full.

This a great filter for my low water turtle tank. It's very quiet and is doing a great job. I just wish the cord could be a bit longer. I have it in about 9" of water in the turtle tank and it's working great, in conjunction with my Whisper reptofilter, they both Keep the tank really clean with weekly water changes. Which you must do no matter how good your filter works. too me its also a quite soothing white noise late at night when the house is quiet, it just sounds like a waterfall and can be peaceful. It stays in place with the suction cups. so if your tank is a low water design, this is the filter for you. I've also tried it in an aquarium full of water, it doesn't have to be used only in low water aquariums, it works well in either situation.

I got this for my turtles. This is an absolute must! While waiting for this, we went without a filter for a couple weeks and the water got so disgusting within about 2-3 days where I had to clean ALL the tank. Since having this filter, I’ve only had to basically spot clean. It’s so powerful that it definitely does the job, you can adjust the power as need be, and I only have it on a low setting. I know my turts are much happier and I definitely am too

I would have given this 5 stars if the suction cups worked well. This is meant to sit on the glass and filter the water up through the bottom. I had to set something underneath this to keep it from sliding down the glass, completely submersing the filter. Other than that, it works well and worked right away. 6/10

We have tried a few turtle filters by now and some do really well in some aspects and fail in others this one seems to do pretty good all the way around.-It came in well packaged and in great shape.-It is very simple to set up. I really appreciate the four suction cups on the back to hold it to the tank's side. We have had some that either come with nothing or just two and then the filter gets “played with” and ripped apart.-It is great for low water levels and can run with just over an inch of water.-The filter itself is extremely quiet, we actually don’t notice it at all over the sound of the water.-So far it does a great job at keeping the water clear.Whether you have a low or high water level situation this filter is a great option.
