Aqueon 06078 QuietFlow 55 Power Filter, 250GPH

I had an other brand, same specs. did not keep the tank clean. and was hard to clean the Aqueon workes very well,and easy to clean.

I have purchased 3 of these filters over the past year. Replaced cartridges with 1" thick foam. Filter moves a lot of water. Filters used under heavy load conditions-well fed koi and large fish. No noise problem as tanks kept full. Enhanced filtration by stuffing filter floss in open areas. Only complaint is that intake tube falls off easily. Plan to solve this by gluing tube in place.

This filter works well, I personally find if your tank has enough water in it there is no water hitting water sound. When I do start hearing the water I know my tank needs a few gallons. That said my down side is the spinning propeller needed to be replaced after 5 months. I could wash it off and it would work, but it got really noisy. This is a 75 gal. tank but only has 7 small fish and I bought the Aqueon because the cascade 1000 was such a disappointment, so I have 2 filters on my tank. The point is it is not over worked. The frequent filter changes I solved with the Grab it dry dust and allergen clothes. they have no additives so wrapped around the filters helps the filters work MUCH better and they can be tossed in the washing machine and used over and over.

The water on water noise is really loud. It interferes with watching tv. It's not a pleasant noise either, kind of like the annoying drip of 1000 faucets. The filter media doesn't fit snugly into the holders resulting in a lot of bypass.. I've got a fluval filter on another tank.. totally quiet. Also the fluval has separately replaceable carbon sections and reusable foam for filtration... much better.

I had this review up about 2 months ago and I was asked nicely to remove it by Mark Tiger and I did remove upon the promise of a full refund if the product was shipped back, well I shipped the filter back 2 weeks ago and I've tried in the last 2 weeks to get ahold of this guy, but the only way to get ahold of him is to write a review. So here it goes, this filter is not quiet like advertised, it flows water way too loud. The innards of the filter are quiet but the water hitting water is a huge issue when I'm trying to sleep. Not recommended, and the customer service for this company is terrible.
