It works great. Looks really cute in the 2.5 gallon tank.

The media could not be loaded.Our tank came with a bulky top filter that took up a lot of space and was too strong for my betta. This one is quiet and cleaned up my tank after a 50% water change in about 5 mins. Happy customer

So, these work as advertised and are an awesome value. I will state that I think a 3 gallon, for one filter, at least on a long-term basis is too big. I use these in my 1 and 2 gallon planted shrimp and snail jars that would be otherwise unfiltered. I have a 3 gallon critter keeper I use for separating plants, extra snails, shrimp etc before bagging them up and giving them away to friends and family and one of these filters is just too small for that.Now, if you do need something bigger but not as big as their next size up, you can search for bio filter sponge. They are like tiny round version of a box filter. Half a sponge and half gravel in the bottom. Loads more powerful for a 25% increase in size. However, that isn’t what I needed, and these fill my needs wonderfully.Just understand what you are buying. I can’t stress enough how small these are. Which again, makes them prefect for some uses such as my case. Tiny snail species and shrimp. Maybe two of these filters in a small Betta tank, but I’d still be more comfortable going up a size.Just another note: these have a very fine pore structure to the sponge, so they need frequent cleaning. This is the norm but if you prefer a coarse sponge, this isn’t. (I use both for different applications.) Neither a positive nor a negative just preference.Having said all that, if the larger ones are anything like the smaller ones, I wouldn’t hesitate to order them.Huge value for money.

I love these mini filters. I have 2 Betas in their own turle/container. And these filters with the flow adjustments is perfect. And keeps the water clear for about a week and maybe beyond. I still down half a water change every week to make sure my beta gets everything they need.

First off, it is pretty loud and makes big bubbles. I personally find the sound calming so it isn’t really an issue for me, but some people may find it annoying. It keeps my 3 gallon tank clean though. Sometimes, my fish will swim into the bubbles and get pushed up to the top of the tank, but he does it repeatedly so I think he might enjoy it lol.
