"I bought the zoo med 501 for my 20 long tutle tank. Set it up very easy sometimes takes awhile to prime. Ran it and thought it did just ok until I read another reviewt suggested putting the charcaol bag on the bottom and the ceramic medium on top. Well I did and wow what a difference in the flow of water comming out of the wand its like a whole new filter, this think rocks. I almost returned it glad I didnt dont pay attention to the directions hwen it comes to the medium"

Great filter
Date: October 7, 2009
"I bought this filter about a week ago, and it has been the best filter purchase to date. I have a 3.5 year old red eared slider in a 30 gallon tank. This filter works flawlessly and makes cleaning the tank a breeze. Just make sure that you fill canister all the way to the top to prime (oops). All in all this filter works perfect for the setup I have. Great deal."

Great product
Date: September 21, 2009
"This is the 3rd brand of filter I've purchased, and the best. It keeps my turtle's water clean for over a week, and it gives her more room to swim around. I would recommend this to any turtle owner. Even though the price is a little bit high, it's an investment that is well worth it, because I found myself paying more for filter cartriges with other filtration systems than I payed for this."
