Equipment Review and Discussion :: Zoo Med Turtle Filter

[Brianthedog18]

Has anyone used this before? It seems too good to be true, it's an out of tank filter (so no noise) and all the 'reviews' say it keeps the tank very clean. And, it's really cheap! What do you all think?

I just changed filters to the zoo med. I bought two and put them at opposite ends of the tank. It is very quiet, and easy to clean. However, it doesn't work any better then my old filters did. I still have to clean 50% of the water a few times a week. It does create a nice waterfall effect that keeps the water circulating better then my old filters though. It's a toss up.

Did the Zoo-Meds have a greater tank rating/GPH rating than your previous filter?
