Clean, sparkling water is the mark of a healthy, thriving aquarium. The amount of filtration needed to maintain an aquarium depends on a number of variables. These include tank size, individual maintenance habits and fish population. Whatever your individual needs, Marineland brand has the filtration products you need to deliver on-target, advanced filtration.

Review: I have been using these power filters for almost 17 years. We have had several tanks. Recently bought two for my new 80 gallon shark tank. We now have the four bio wheels (which by the way are not supposed to spin all the time which means they’re working and you’re doing something right) and four bays to put extra media in if required. These systems are hardy and reliable. If you’re doing weekly water changes, rinse out to eliminate any algae/slime. The system gets louder as the water level evaporates. Always rinse charcoal media before placing in bay. I’d recommend this product and indeed all Marineland products. I don’t buy any other brand with as much confidence.
Review: Lo compré con muchas dudas por el comentario. Me ha funcionado bastante bien en un acuario de 26 litros con plantas naturales. Con limpieza de filtro y acuario cada semana o cada 2. El ruido, como es de cascada si dejan mucha caída hará ruido el agua. El motor en si del filtro es muy silencioso. El material filtrante que trae lo cambié porque no es de muy buena calidad. Le puse unas esponjas y canutillos.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The bio wheel on our filter (new) is extremely noisey - has anyone else experienced this?**
A: I can't take it anymore.  I had to remove the bio wheel.  The noise is not bubbles, not impeller, it is the wheel spraying water due to centrifugal force.  Remove it... silent.   I replaced my 20 year old Penguin 200 with the new one and HATE IT.  100% REGRET.  ZERO STARS.

**Q: does it come with the bio wheel and filter**
A: Just purchased the 200 size yesterday and it included one bio-wheel and one cartridge. Just thought I'd mention that since no answers have been posted in the last year and packaging may or may not have changed in that time.

**Q: How much clearance between the wall and the aquarium is required?**
A: I have 4 inches from the back of my Aquarium and the wall. There is 1 inch between the back of the Filter and the wall.

**Q: how do to maintence on 350 marine penguin power filter?**
A: I use a brass "jet" size nozzle  on my garden hose to clean the dirty filters.  Blast hose water thru from the opposite side of the blue side and it does a great job cleaning the filter.  If using tap water is bad due to killing bacteria, what happens when you take a new filter out of the box?  Is there living bacteria on the new dry filter.  I don't think so, and I have no fish health problems using my method and they can be washed 3-4 time before new replacement.  Just  my 2 cents after using this method for over 3 years.
