Description

The Tetra® Whisper® IQ Power Filter with Stay Clean™ technology keeps aquarium water clean and clear. This quiet filter contains a soft barrier between the motor and the filter that serves as a sound shield to minimize noise. The bio- scrubber cultivates aerobic bacteria to remove toxic ammonia and nitrite, and the smart path spillway oxygenates the water and agitates the surface. With a self-priming, submerged motor and adjustable intake to fit your aquarium’s needs, the Tetra Whisper IQ Power Filter is perfect for use with both freshwater and marine fish. Works with easy-to-change Tetra Whisper Bio-Bag® Filter Cartridges with Stay Clean technology – helps reduce buildup on aquarium glass, bind small dirt particles to make them easier to filter and stabilize pH levels to prevent crashes, meaning easier aquarium maintenance for you. Tetra Whisper IQ Power Filters are available in a range of sizes to fit your aquarium. This Tetra Whisper IQ 60 Power Filter treats aquariums up to 60 gallons (300 GPH). Convenient color coding makes it simple to choose the correct size replacement cartridge – use with size large Tetra Whisper Bio-Bag Filter Cartridges (blue packaging).

    • BEST FILTER FOR BETTAS
Size: 10-Gallon
Review Image by Catsofmany Catsofmany
Review Image by Catsofmany Catsofmany
I bought two of these filters despite a couple negative comments. I've had aquariums for 40 years with many different filters. I currently have a 5, 10, 20, 30, 55 and a 120 for tanks. The 10 gallon tank houses 2 Betta fish with a tank divider. One Betta lives with 2 cherry shrimp but the other is too aggressive to add tankmates. I run a filter on each side. Finding a filter that didn't blow the fish across the tank has been difficult. I've tried a few small ones but they failed to keep the tank clean and the filter cartridges were only an inch wide. I decided to take a chance and I haven't been disappointed. Granted, it's only been a few days. The adjustable water flow is perfect for the Bettas and shrimp. As you can see in one of the pictures, one shrimp likes to sit inside the spillway and obviously not a strong current coming out of the filter. The tank cleaned up beautifully in 24 hours. I did put the inch wide filter cartridge from the old filter into the new filter along with the new filter cartridge for the beneficial bacteria. The Tetra filter is super quiet, appears to be easy to clean and intake strainer is small enough not to suck up the shrimp. The other issue I've had with other filters is failure to prime when our electricity blinks which happens a lot in our town. The Tetra is self-priming so I no longer have to worry. I like that it also has a bio-scrubber (the green basket that cultivates beneficial bacteria). I certainly will update if there are any problems. UPDATE: 16 days...The filters are keeping the tanks clean and the self priming has been wonderful during the last power flickering. The only problem I had is the filters are just a bit too wide for my glass top to sit as far back as it needs to go. Using a pair of snips, I put a small notch into each side of the filter now allowing my glass top to slide into place. ... show more

    • It really whispers, so quiet, I love
Size: 30-Gallon
This is the most quiet filter that I ever purchased, it works well with my 20 gallon aquarium, compared to the first filter that came as part of a set with the fish tank, it was rather a noisy filter. So getting this new filter came as a blessing because my puppy chewed the cord of the first filter which caused it to blow out. I’ll give this new filter a few days to see how long the water stays clean ... show more

    • Quiet and reliable function, moves a lot of water.
Size: 60-Gallon
I've owned several Whisper branded power filters, as well as Rena external power filters, over the years and this is a review for the 60-gallon Whisper IQ. I actually have this 60-gallon unit mounted on a 75-gallon tank. From experience I think you can run a bit smaller filter and still get good quality water cleaning from the Whisper brand filters, and with these types of tank 'hanging' filters, you'll need plenty of tank wall real estate and can save some by going a little smaller. With my 75, I've got several feet of back wall space, but the 60g still takes a considerable width of the back wall. I really like the modular cartridge system. You can use Whisper's included activated carbon, or your media own to fill the disposable bags, I often rotate between activated carbon and zeolite. The 60-gal model uses two filter bags. Whisper sells bulk, I buy 12-packs of bags/media which are reasonably priced. The 75-gallon tank this filter resides in is home to a variety of community fish - tetras, gourami, guppies, mostly, along with live plants. Fish are fed once a day. The filter does it's job day in and day out. It's not so powerful as to instantly suck up all the flaked food that's put in the tank, nor have have any of the smaller fish (guppies) been injured or trapped by the pressure at the intake. Nonetheless, running 24/7, this filter moves and circulates a lot of water, and does it's part (along with the biologics) to keep the water crystal clear. Mechanical/motor noise level is minimal. The pleasant sound of falling/moving water is more noticeable than anything mechanical. The top of the filter is easily accessible through a removable top panel. Filter bags are easy to inspect and replace. The impeller has never jammed and the intake grate keeps large debris from damaging the impeller assembly. The top panel fits well and so far as I can tell there is no appreciable water loss through condensation occurring as a part of the filter's cycle. Happy with the purchase and wouldn't hesitate to purchase again, or a different model from the same manufacturer. ... show more

    • Great pump
Size: 45-Gallon
Review Image by Shane Shane
It's a pretty good pump, has a very minor downfall but the operation of the pump itself is flawless.... The only downside I am experiencing is the lid of the pump is often rattling and be annoying would be easily fixed with some type of sealer for the lid to keep it from being plastic on plastic and help seal the lid on more secure If not for that 1 minor flaw ide give it 5 stars it's easy to take apart and clean every single component 😌 and the pump itself really is quiet as you see it's in my room so I need to be able to sleep this pump is perfect 👌 I can make it almost like a really soft running creek noise and pass out almost instantly 😴😴😴😴 ... show more

    • SO QUIET
Size: 20-Gallon
I bought multiple different filters before trying this one, and they were always noisy and kept me up at night. I was so pleased when I plugged this one in and heard how quiet it was. It's a nice compact size and is easy to put together and install. Powerful suction, works great in my 30 Gallon.

    • Super Quiet
Size: 45-Gallon
We have a few different sizes of fish tanks. It works mostly in our 20 gallon tank but we move them around based on what fish we have and how many. It keeps the water clean, it let's you know when it needs cleaned out or changed. Will buy again!

    • The casing will fall apart at the pump!
Size: 20-Gallon
Although it is priced cheap, there is a reason for this. The casing that holds the suction and pump will separate and will start leaking.
