"It's quiet and seems to be a better system because it don't have any place that it can leak outside of my fish tank, like my other system i had."

— Kelly

"The filter just stopped working. I'm sure it's servicable but the cost to repair it is more than a new one. Thats the issue I have had with the previous one."
