Nice little filter. When I received it, the box listed it for up to 15 gallons. Even with it turned all the way down, the flow was too strong for my 5.3. It also makes a low rattle/hum when working so not the best option if you want something really quiet. It would probably be great for a 10 gallon though.

Fluval products never disappoint. This is a very powerful submersible filter a notch or 2 above the Zoo Med turtle 318 for small setups. What makes this unit nice is that the sponge filter chamber can be substituted with small bio-balls as a filter substrate. I'm using this for small juvenile single turtles and works great. Best of all, super easy to clean rather than the clumsy canister filters that are a pain to clean with all those small parts and tubing, etc.

I use it to break up the scum that builds up on the surface. my last one worked for years until a snail blocked the impeller and burned it out.

I move this filter from one tank to another. It's great to use when when your regular filters aren't getting the job done. Also good for smaller tanks and getting oxygen levels up.
