AzooMignon Filter 150 Power Filter

Filter worked decently for the first while but did clog rather easily, far faster than my other filters.Now that I've had it for a while it has stopped working almost entirely, I disassembled the motor as much as I could to clean it out and it still barely moves water, probably a gallon an hour if im lucky, huge waste of money, and no more silent than any of my other HOB filters

No hace mucho ruido como otros dicen y genial para un gambario de 20 litros, obvio tiene poco caudal justo para no mover mucho a estos invertebrados.

I bought this filter from Amazon as an upgrade to the Azoo Mignon 60 I used to cycle my aquarium.I have a small 5.5 gallon aquarium with live plants, driftwood, and Flourite substrate. Tank inhabitants are a single male betta, 2 apple snails, an algae eater and 5 glass shrimp. This filter is very small, but does a great job cycling the water enough to keep the tank nice and clear. I felt the original Azoo Mignon 60 was right at its limit in how much water it could turn over in a 5.5 gallon tank.The only modifications I made to this new Azoo 150 were to remove the sponge and carbon it came with and replace them with BioMax and AquaClear foam inserts (both available through Amazon). I dropped a small mesh bag with about 12 biomax pellets and cut the new AquaClear foam insert to fit tightly into the top portion of the tank. The AquaClear (sponge) is taller than the flow of water (if that makes sense). So that all water that comes through the filter passes through the sponge and the biomax at the bottom cultures my healthy bacteria.The filter is very quiet and has an easily adjusted flow knob so that I can turn the flow down when feeding and back up after and even to full blast if I have disturbed the substrate when moving plants around. I think it is an incredible deal for the price. I was also really impressed with how small it is. I wanted to make sure that whatever power filter I used didn't look like a monster hanging off the back of a small 5.5 gallon tank.Overall it does the job, looks really nice and is cheap enough to buy a replacement if needed.

Just really disappointed as I unpacked it. There were plastic chips throughout and it's clear that from the water flow it'll provide minimal filtration.

Great Little filter for betta tank! I bought a Fluval Chi 5 gallon tank. I am an experienced aquarium hobbiest and this is my first small tank, as a I just don’t have wall space in current home for a larger tank. The Chi tank is lovely, but the filtration is minimal, so I decided to supplement and added this after trying smaller in-tank “hidden” filters that just didn’t quite do the job. I was bummed to have to ruin the ambiance of the tank with a filter on the back and had to modify the plastic cover for it to fit—but in the end, superior filtration won over aesthetics. Had trouble finding this type of filter small enough to fit my tank, but this one did the trick. Minimal noise and the adjustable flow is great! I keep mine at full speed and our betta fish seems very happy and our water stays clear longer. Be sure to use the sponge on the intake if you have sensitive fish and remember the flow can be adjusted. I rinse and re-use the filter with non-chlorinated water and only replace it every two or three months if needed. Sponge can get rinsed, too. Gave it four stars on the noise and value because of the slight hum with the lid—but it is still a pretty quiet filter. It is quieter with lid off. The four on value is because the replacement filters are a bit more than they should be and they clearly come from China. If I could find a similar American made filter, I would buy that—but this is the only one I could find that fit my weird tank.
