Works fine, but it showed up with a piece of tubing jammed on the intake then hacked off. Obviously used. Thanks.

No, I do not recommend this product.

It works very well!!! It's very easy to install in any wall of the aquarium. My aquatic plants and fishes are happy in their Jungle Vallisneria River!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Would have been nice if the power head output would swivel to direct the water flow, but this one is static and only sends the water flow forward with no directional control. I guess for $18 you get what you pay for. Had I known this ahead of time I would have selected a different power head. Other than that it works as advertised.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Was looking at this to use on an undergravel filter in a 15 gallon column aquarium. Is it to powerful?

2 years ago
Yes, unfortunately. I bought this for the same purpose for a 10 gallon tank and ended up replacing it with the adjustable powerhead made by top finn. This turned my 10 gallon tank esentially into a toilet bowl.

Would this be too much for a 5 gallon tank, also I’m thinking about getting a water frog (African dwarf frog) and they can’t have strong currents or else it can harm them, would this keep a steady smooth current in a 5 gallon tank?

4 years ago
This power head would be far too strong for such a small tank- and for the frog. What purpose is the power-head serving? If it is simply for more water turbulence, a stronger filter would work as a better fix. Although would not benefit the frog unless you got alot of top floating plants to create a still-water spot.

Can I use this to upgrade the filter in my Imagitarium Frameless Freshwater Aquarium (SKU 2782157)? If not, can you point me in the direction of something that would work?

4 years ago
I actually came to this to see for any good answers; i assume so. The pump used for the frameless imagitarium SUCKS! Biggest downside to the aquarium. I am going to buy another just to remove back but increasing the flow may increase it. I say: experiment! Worst is you need to return the pump to the store for return. For science!

I am a little dumbfounded and could use some help/advice. I previously had a wave maker, what are the pros and cons comparing this to a WaveMaker, also how are they different? Thanks

This pump does not pulse like a wave maker has an air valve to aerate the water and its continuous water flow.

Has anyone used this for water changes? Like putting it in a bucket to pump water back into an aquarium?

6 years ago
Yes, I have and it worked great. Only downside was that the inlet for aeration got in the way of the tubing I used for water changes. I had to use a hose clamp to keep it attached.

Hi Carole100, We do not sell replacement parts for this we apologize, you will have to do some searching. Please see dimensions below: 2581101 Inner Diameter: 18.3mm The strainer portion that connects to the power head should be at least 7.7mm Long 2581099 Inner Diameter: 24.8mm The strainer portion that connects to the power head should be at least 16.98mm Long Thanks,

Can I add an airstone to this? If so what size tubing would I need?

Hi zookeeper123, This would be too strong for an air stone. We recommend using an air pump instead. Thanks,
