Fluval U3 Underwater Filter Poly/Carbon

Used in a turtle tank. I should get a stronger filter as these are expensive and must be changed frequently.

I used this filter in my small turtle pool for about 2 years. Then it just stopped working all together. It was regularly cleaned and never treated roughly. I would never waste my money purchasing this type filter again. I even replaced the filters as needed. What a waste of money. I now use a different companys filter system and all works fine.

Water flow is great again. Thanks for the new filter. I tried cleaning the old filter several times but still doesnt work good.

Turtles are messy critters, especially if you feed them a varied diet with some plants. Differently, give a turtle a live feeder fish, and its gone in seconds without a trace. However, turtles need plants in order to be healthy, despite the mess. Roughly, half of the plant they will eat, and the other half they will rip to shreds! This makes it such that turtles need a foam filter to catch the larger particles, which in this case are stirred up by the Fluval U3 water jet for easier collection via the Fluval U3 holster. Without Filter Foam Pads and a Fluval Underwater Filter, it is difficult to be vigilant to get waste particles siphoned. It is such that in my experience more waste particles will settle bottom of a tank without Fluval Underwater filtration. What is great about these pads is that they can be washed and reused many many times. They dont need replacing every time, just cleaning. I rinse them until they come clean when I siphon/clean the tank.

As expected

Item installed easy and works great.

Keeping the tank clean good product

This is what i expected and is a great price compared to the pet store. will be buying this again in the future
