Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this filter for its exceptional quiet operation, crystal clear water results, and easy maintenance. Reviewers consistently report barely noticing it running and seeing dramatic water clarity improvements within days of installation. Many highlight the intuitive setup, adjustable flow rate, and sturdy components that hold up well over time. The combination of reliable performance, quiet operation, and strong value makes it a trusted choice. A few mention minor concerns about cartridge costs or fit issues, but these are vastly outweighed by enthusiastic recommendations from satisfied users.

Poor online service and inventory control

Was shown that Petco had it in inventory. Then they canceled the order. I didn't want my money back, I wanted a 400 GPH filter system for the clearance price stated on their site. Their site needs real time inventory

No, I do not recommend this product.

This filter is an absolute powerhouse, featuring a 100 GPH motor that effortlessly cleans a 10-gallon tank in no time. You’ll be amazed as debris is quickly pulled into the filter. The innovative design, specifically geared towards making water changes easier, is truly brilliant. I successfully completed a 50% water change on my 10-gallon tank with no issues—honestly, I could have gone up to a 70% change! My only minor complaint is that it doesn't use a standard filter. However, I’m considering doing my own experiment by filling it with bio-rings and a carbon-filled bag, so I don’t have to rely on their specific filters. I’m confident this will work just fine and it’s definitely a more eco-friendly option.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Questions

1 - 5 of 5 Questions

Is this filter loud?

  1. Thanks for your question! The Aqueon SmartClean Power Filter is designed to operate quietly during normal use, and many users report that the filter is barely noticeable while running. As with most aquarium filters, you may still hear some water movement or a slight motor hum depending on your setup and water level. Keeping the aquarium filled to the recommended water level will help minimize the sound of returning water. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our consumer care team at 1-888-255-4527 or at https://www.aqueon.com/about-us/contact-us. Thank you and have a great day!



will this work for large mouth bass and blue gill?

  1. Great question! Our experts at 1-888-255-4527 can provide all the details you need.



will it work with a red-eared slider

  1. Thank you for reaching out! For the best assistance, please contact our team of experts at 1-888-255-4527. They’ll be happy to help!



The "Water Level" line looks pretty high on the filter (almost at the filter discharge height). The water level will drop below that line almost immediately when using the smart clean tube to remove water from the aquarium. Won't this damage the motor?

  1. Our customer service representatives can provide specific guidance about the safe operating water levels for this filter model and confirm whether the design accounts for the water level changes during cleaning operations.
