This is not my first experience with a marineland filter. I used to have a 37 gallon eclipse aquarium. Those were the aquariums where everything that was needed to maintain the tank was contained in the hood. I never had a problem in 12 years. I decided to go with this filter since I had a positive experience previously. Early on it seems to be working as advertised. I bought a top fin 55 gallon aquarium on sale. While I was ok with the aquarium, I didn’t want to use the components that it came with. I bought this filter. The one negative which is no fault of this product, is the cutouts on the top fin hood are designed to fit their filter. This penguin 350 is to large. I had to cut the hood to make it work. You can’t really tell though, and the filter is working great. I have had no issues with it being to loud. It works great.

Great price. Came on time. I was worried about some of the negative reviews. This pump is not for a tank with very small gravel or sand because it will make the horrible noises some of you describe. Because of the rotors in the filtration part of the pump small pebbles get in the setting and make horrible grinding noises. My tank was a mess when I got this pump. My old pump was not working very well so I had to make a major clean up. I had a lot of particles in the water. I have big gravel in my tank but there are some small pebbles in it so when a big clean up is done they go in the water. The first night I had the pump going it started making a screeching sound. I was to tire to fix it. Following morning it was running quietly. In the afternoon the noises started again. I stopped the pump and I pulled it apart. Sure enough in one of the rotors a couple of very small pebbles were stacked on the material of one the rotors. I used a small pair of pliers and carefully got the pebbles out. Since then no problems. This pump cleaned a very messy cloudy water in about 2 hours (60 gallons). My tank is nice and clear and my fish are much happier. I think a better description of the pump is necessary so people can make better choices according to their needs. Also the maker should review the pump design. A mesh placed on the intaker part of the pump could take care of the noise problem for those customers who need to use small grave or sand

I have a 80 gallon fresh water tank. This filter is perfect! I checked the price for this same filter at my pet stores and they were about $50! So we r definitely getting a good deal on the price. A lot of ppl r saying it’s very loud…but I do not have that issue. I would say if ur is loud to maybe check the mechanics of the filter make sure everything is fitting snug n its spot. Also when u set it up make sure u put some water n the back of the filter b4 u turn it on. Where the carbon filter goes (behind each wheel) there r 2 slots come to find out u r NOT missing anything it is like that so that u can put 2 carbon filters for double the filtration power.

Great filter only noise you hear is from water, which if your water level is high enough is very minimal. besides the noise of the water is quite soothing. Sometimes i lower the water level so there is more aeration. that is one of the greatest thing about a hang on the back besides the ease of use and maintenance. there is only 3 options this kind, a sponge filter which doesnt filter as much particles but uses less electricity and doesnt need to be replaced as often and provides unparalleled biomedia as well as not providing a current which is good or bad depending on the fish. guaramis do not like current while bala sharks do for instance. or a canister filter which is very difficult to maintain and expensive. however canisters are the best filters. i use 2 of these filters on my 125 I highly recommend them. plenty of room for media and other filter additives which sponge filters do not provide. I have it stuffed full of purigen and poly filters. another downside of sponge filters is they take up quite a bit of space in the actually tank itself. I hope this helps.

The Marineland penguin 350 is a great filter. I had originally got one for my 75 Gallon tank housing an Oscar. Oscars are very messy fish, especially during feeding. After a year, it is still performing wonderfully and keeping my water crystal clear, while also keeping ammonia and Nitrite levels at zero. I was really impressed and decided to buy a second penguin 350 filter for a combined filtering flow of 700gph.Overall, I like the 350’s slim back design, and be able to add up to 4 cartridges. I use Marinelands refillable cartridge for extra carbon on the extra slots. The bio wheel really works once you get an established bacteria colony growing on them. I still have my original wheels on the year old 350 with no issues whatsoever.With the 350’s inexpensive price point, you can’t go wrong with this powerful filter.

SIMPLE INSTALLATION. I RECOMMEND GETTING BIO-WHEELS WET UNDER RUNNING WATER BEFORE DROPPING INTO THEIR SLOTS. I DONT KNOW WHY MANY THINK THIS IS A NOISY FILTER….MINE IS VERY QUIET…WHEELS SPIN EFFORTLESSLY AND ZERO SPLASH DUE TO THE SPLASH GUARD DEVICE THAT COVERS THE OUT TAKE FLOW. I DO RECOMMEND EXTRA MEDIA CARTRIDGES TO ADD DIFFERENT MEDIA TO REDUCE AMMONIA AND TO POLISH THE TANK WATER BUT THIS IS TRUE WITH EVERY FILTER I HAVE EVER OWNED FOR THE 40 PLUS YEARS I HAVE HAD AQUARIUMS. I HAD THE FILTER UP AND RUNNING IN LESS THAN 20 MINUTES AND THAT INCLUDES THE REMOVAL OF A RUNNING FILTER THAT WAS BEING REPLACED. SO FAR…AFTER 3 DAYS….I AM IMPRESSED THAT IT WORKS AS IT ACTUALLY SHOULD! SO THEREFORE…A THUMBS UP. CURRENTLY ON A 55 GALLON TANK.

I recently upgraded from a 10 gallon aquarium to a 29 gallon. I have always used Marineland filters and been happy with them and their quality. After lots of research and advice from aquarium experts, I decided to purchase the Marineland 350. I was worried that it might be too much for my aquarium or that it would be loud. To my surprise, the Marineland 350 works amazingly in my aquarium and is pretty quiet! Of course the sound all depends on how much water is in the aquarium. (The lower the water level, the louder the sound.) I have my aquarium filled to the top and it’s pretty quiet. As for performance, I couldn’t ask for a better filter. I really like that the Marineland 350 gives you the ability to use 4 cartridges at once. My fish are definitely happier and my water is crystal clear. The Marineland 350 at Petsmart was priced at $79.99 and Amazon has it listed at $29. The filter arrived within 2 days and was the exact same as Petsmart’s. Really happy with the money I was able to save. All in all, I highly recommend this filter and I’m a extremely happy customer!
