Pros & Cons
Pros
Filter for 25 gallon tank for goldfish. I tend to lean towards over filtration on small tanks that hold a lot of shrimps.
Cons
No motor, not a sound, no filtration. When it happened a second time after roughly the same amount of use, it seems likely that the quality of these filters is either poor or highly inconsistent.
It sounds like niagra falls. Will be reaching out to tetra for assistance. Ordered 8/21 & was delivered 8/26.
Filter is too short for most tanks bigger than 10 gallon. Bottom of the intake is 5 inch to 8 inch too far from the bottom of the to extract fish wastes. Overall the intake inlet and outlet are too close.
Highlights
Quality
Works very well easy to assemble easy to clean
Very good filter easy set up
Stops filtering before the water level goes below the line
I was having filtering problems i had an undergravel filter and a biofilter my tank was terrible and my fish kept getting ick
Price
Works great for a great price
Great value for the longevity and durability
At walmart a 10 gallon filter was 40 and i found it here for such a better price
Overall its great for the price and it works
Competitiveness
Also this says it is supposed to be quiet its no different than any other filter
Tried another filter brand and was very noisy and it did a poor job
It also does not fit on my tank with my lid but it is a different brand lid

The pump after around 10 years stopped working so we got this tetra brand fish filter to replace it

The only problem with that is that the instructions were vague and i didnt understand for 20 mins what pump pieces to use for my tank
