Whisper into the Night

by shopaholic_man shopaholic_man is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Pets, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Mar 18 '07
Pros: It is quiet and it cleans.
Cons: Filter changes can be messy.
Fish need a clean home. Their tank of water is their home, and you need to keep it clean so that they will thrive. This means partial water changes from time to time, but for day to day maintenance, a good filter system will keep your tank clean for ...

Whisper Power Filter:Whisper To Me Softly Baby

by hlbirk , Jul 16 '01
Pros: Low maintenance, quiet and gets the job done!
Cons: None
This will be written by me but with my 6 year old daughter narrating. She's absolutely fascinated with our 20-gallon tank and she does a great job of helping maintain it.

Why Whisper is better.

by theproductguy , Dec 28 '03
Pros: Easy setup, adjustable flow, filter pads available in bulk.
Cons: Instructions did not include a few vital facts to starting the filter.
This is a great filter because: Right out of the box its ready to go! It comes complete with a filter pad (good for 2-4 weeks on average, read more below) and all instructions. And it takes less then 5 to 10 minutes to get going. * Please note, to ...

Tetra Whisper Power Filter: Another Tetrariffic Product

by Dosite1 , Sep 20 '00
Pros: Quiet, durable, easy to clean
Cons: A little expensive
The Whisper filter, made by Tetra, may be the best of it's class. It can be a little more expensive than others though, and if money is no object, then perhaps one should consider stepping up to a filter wheel.

Long List of Flaws!

Pros: Low cost, low maintenance, and filters my aquarium very well.
Cons: Almost too quiet.
Tetra Whisper Power Filter is really as quiet as a whisper. I use one on my 10 gallon aquarium. It seems to filter my aquarium very well. It is not too expensive and is very easy to set up and operate.

First stuff:

by lowow , Aug 25 '00
Pros: no loud noise
Cons: changing filter with bow movement from fish
We all know our fish tanks get dirty from all the waste fish bring when they use the fish tank as their bathroom, and when their food gets the tank cloudy if you put to much food. If you have one of them filters that sit inside the tank its time for a...

Does its job, quiet, but PF60 width for 55 gallon tank unsatisfactory.

by remnat , Mar 19 '07
Pros: Quiet, keeps water crystal clear.
Cons: Water flow should be monitored daily.
When I went shopping for a new filter for a 55 gallon tank I was drawn to the Whisper PF60 which is supposed to handle a 40 to 60 gallon tank. Fortunately, I noticed the width of this model is 13˝ wide; too large for the standard 55 gallon tank if you ...

Nice and quiet . . . but a tight fit.

by big629 , Aug 20 '01
Pros: Quiet, easy to change media, seems good for goldfish
Cons: Slight cloudiness to the water, no room for additional media
From the moment I plugged in my Whisper 4, I was amazed by how silent the thing was. At the same time, I was also a little concerned about the flow rate, which seemed much lower than it should be for a filter a big as this one. A few months later,...

Make Your Fish Happy

Pros: quiet, reliable
Cons: none
Two years before I moved in with my boyfriend, he'd "rescued" a 30 gallon aquarium that came with a Whisper Power Filter. His plain garden variety goldfish thrived, despite the algae that was taking over the tank and murky water that was at...

Pros: Reasonably priced,widely available,easy to assemble.Does a good job circulating large amounts of water.
Cons: Uses "Carbon" filters instead of Bio-Bags.Filter and power unit must be carefully installed.
