5.0 out of 5 stars There's Nothing Like a Whisper, March 14, 2011

I've been buying Whisper aquarium products for a number of years and I have to tell you I couldn't be happier with them. They ARE the quietest products on the market. Put them on/in your fish tank and they run so quietly you won't even know they're there. And this power filter lives up to its name. It's super quiet and it filters the water just as it should, leaving it crystal clear (unless you have a bacteria problem and then the only cure for that is to treat your tank). I especially like the design of the bio bags. If you want to add more charcoal or some ammo chips to take care of an ammonia problem, just open them up and add them to the bag. I give this product an A+.

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic Whisper Power Filter, October 19, 2010

The Whisper 30 is dependable power filter. I use it in my 20 Gallon regular fish tank. I have 9 medium sized gold fish in it. It handles the load of cleaning well, I have to clean the filter once, and once in a while twice a week. Replacement parts are available & the motor runs cool, even under heavy load. The Whisper 30 is a durable filter & lasted where other brands have failed for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars STILL LOUD, January 7, 2012

I have used these filters for over 25 years. Have tried others...thinking they would be quieter, but, alas, NO, they aren't.
I use the 20 Gal. filter on my 10 gallon tank to keep things more clear.
Only negatives: it is still a loud motor...even more amplified by the fact that my tank is in a display bookcase, but one gets used to the ambient sound.
It is no worse than the motors on a Cats water fountain (since they are the same motor)...and those of you who have live bearing, small fish, such as guppies...will need to use a small hole type of cover over the bottom intake...as it can suck up the newborns, as well as African Frog eggs.
All in All...it is a GOOD Filter and only got 4 stars because of noise factor....I wish they could figure out a way to dampen it down some.
CAN'T beat the price at AMAZON compared to other outlets !!!
