Best small filter I've ever used
Date: April 6, 2007
"I've had this teeny tiny filter on a teeny tiny 2.5g tank in my office for about 6 months, and it is fantastic. It's virtually silent and so efficient - the water is absolutely sparkling clear all the time.
It also has a very adjustable output flow for such a small filter, which is good because I have a paradise fish who likes to swim in the current of the filter, but doesn't enjoy a tsunami effect in his itty bitty tank.
I've kept tanks of all sizes since I was a kid, and I've used all sorts of filters, and I've never found a small one to beat this little guy. It keeps my tiny tank as clean as my canister filter keeps my larger tank. I've been very, very impressed."

AMAZING mini-filter!!!
Date: May 31, 2009
"I went to Petco and bought the Betta mini-bow 2.5g for my betta fish Tito. The filter it comes with is big and bulky and takes up too much space in the tank, and is also very loud. So i went to the store and bought the Red Sea Deco Art Nano Filter. It works just as good as it says!!! The water is sooo clear and sparkling. And best of all the filter is SILENT!! and it doesnt take up any room at all!! If you are thinking about getting this filter DO IT!!!! you will not be disappointed!!"

Good for a betta
Date: April 17, 2009
"At first I had a problem with this filter leaking, but merely twisting the two pieces apart and putting them back together fixed that. I also don't like that there isn't a place for carbon or zeolite, which I like to have in my filters. I think that is cheap. On the good side, the filter is SILENT, and I am very sensitive to noise. But, I can have the tank in my bedroom. I put it on the 2.5 mini bow, and it works really well and has a nice variable option. In my pic you can barely see it on the left, it takes up very little room in the water. I just gave it the 4 star rating because of the problem with the leak, which the package instructions did nothing to explain, and the cheap filter pads."

Great little filter
Date: April 14, 2009
"After reading all the great reviews on this website, I bought this filter for my 2.5 gallon mini-bow aquarium for my betta fish. The great part is that this hang-on filter is a huge improvement over the in-tank filter that comes with that particular aquarium. I keep the tank on my desk at work, so I was really worried about the noise bothering me or others. But this filter is absolutely amazing. Can't hear a thing and it's hidden from view. The bad news is that I was a little disappointed in the quality of the unit when I received it. There are no Petco stores in my area, so I have to do all my ordering online...inconvenient when you need to return a new nano filter that leaks everywhere! When I first plugged in the unit, I noticed a large puddle behind my tank. Water was leaking from the filter unit because it looks like the plastic pieces weren't assembled correctly. It took a day of finding the leaks and covering them with glue and sealant, but now it works great! Definitely a MUST BUY for the 2.5 gallon mini-bow tank."
