Fluval Filter/Light Cube with Transformer and Media Replacement for Fluval Chi 19L Aquarium Kit

I bought this filter to replace the filter that came with my Fluval Chi. The first part of the review will be for the filter I ordered off Amazon and the second review will be for the filter that it was supposed to replace.

The replacement filter:

When the filter arrived it made a rattling sound when I took it out of the box like something inside was broken. When I plugged the filter in the water pump didn't work making the unit useless. It was returned.

The original filter:

After only having my Fluval Chi for two moths the tab on the filter door that keeps the filter media inside broke off. This caused the filter door to sometimes fall open when it was in tank and also open every time I pulled the filter out of the tank to clean it. This let all of the fish waste that has been trapped by the filter to go back into the tank. Soon after the tab on the filer door broke the light on the top of the fountain stopped working. Then the light switch that controls the light for the tank broke off....

All in all I was very disappointed with the quality of this filter (I'm starting to feel that way about all Fluval products). Fluval is usually considered a superior brand in the fish keeping hobby but this product did not live up to the Fluval reputation. I would not recommend purchasing this filter.

My tank's cube fell apart and I didn't want to have to purchase the entire set up. This new cube works great and saved me enough to buy extra filters, too.

I first tried to find a Fluval light for my tank but all in all this is made for it and instead of buying the light you get the entire full filter new. Works fine for both me and my fish!

I am so pleased with the filter/light cube for our fish tank. I could not find it in any pet store. Thanks Amazon!

I am pleased with the ease and speed of the amazon service. However, the product itself seems to be of less quality than the original filter/light cube I had.

Issues with original: the light switch broke and the light was stuck on which causes to much stress for the fish and the algae was growing like crazy.

Issues with replacement: the box does not sit perfectly horizontal (it tilts forward) so that the water does not flow over all edges evenly and the strength of the pump is not as good and thus the water is unable to flow up into the rock basket and create a waterfall at that level.

If I was that handy/skilled I would take the good components of both cubes into one so it worked as it should.

Many thanks,
