Works as advertised

Works as advertised. One tip i have is to not throw away a cartilage after one use, just rinse it out under tap (I know it'll kill the beneficial bacteria but there should be a bio holster that you are putting the cartilage into, that already holds plenty of beneficial bacteria) and then plunge the cleaned cartilage into conditioned water to rinse out the tap. Then you can just put it right back into the water filter and it'll be good as new. I re-use one cartilage many times until I feel like I abused the heck out of one cartilage and it's finally due for a new one.

Repeat Buyer! Healthy Fish! Balanced Aquarium!

I have been using the Aqueon Filter Cartridges for several years now. I have found not to mess with success when I have healthy fish and a balanced aquarium. I attribute the longevity of my fish to their healthy environment created, in part, by the Aqueon filters. So easy to use! Sure you can make your own, but this is a breeze! I use the Subscribe and Save option here at Amazon for the best price around!

Excellent

I had an extremely cloudy, small aquarium and not matter what I did I couldn't seem to clear the water. Got these, rinsed one as suggested, put it in and withing a few hours the water was pristine! That was two month ago and I've never had to replace it yet! How's that for a great product?

This is my 2nd order of the Aqueon 06417 filter ...

This is my 2nd order of the Aqueon 06417 filter cartridge - small - for my small fish tank. Shipping was fast and it is now part of my every six month subscribe and save subscription. No issues with installing and using with small beta fish tank.

They filter.

Not really much to say. This is the cartridge that fits my filter. They keep the water clean and my fish aren't dead.

2/3 the price vs the Pet store!

These Aqueon filters work very well in our 1 and 2.5 gallon Betta fish tanks. Due to the small size of our tanks (and its one fish contents), the filter can get changed out around only once per month. The filters cartridges do an effective job when used with the Aqueon filter. They do not make excessive noise or smell funky during use. Changing the filter is a snap and the filter cartridge lays horizontally in the filter which allows for more effective filtering. Best part is, on Amazon they are 2/3 the price or 30% less expensive for a six pack than at the pet store!

Best for the Aqueon filter owner

This is the cartridge that is specifically made for use by the aqueon filter of its size. I have found that it really is the best one to use. I purchased a generic cartridge that claimed to be the same quality, but a better price. It wasn't same quality. In this case, and most cases, the cartridge made by the manufacturer is going to be best. Don't be fooled by the generic. They will cost you more in the end. Either by frequent changes, or poor filtration and loss of fish due to stress

Work well, Much Cheaper

These replacement filter cartridges work great in my tank filter. They are the OEM replacement so they should work like the original. They preform just as you would expect. There is not much else to say. The big key is that they are about half the price here as they are in my local store. These are the exact same item as you would pick up in a big box store, but these cost significantly less

Great Product and Good Price

I like getting these in bulk. They are often out of the larger pack but this works great for me. I have 7 large goldfish in one tank and they are messy. I have two pumps which I change every 4 weeks or so, depending on conditions. I've found I can actually take them out and rinse them off after the first week or two as it's just a build up and the filter is not really bad. This adds a little extra usage for me. I would recommend them.

Long-lasting and reliable

I'm using this filter on a tank with a red-eared slider, so there's considerably more waste production than what you find in most aquariums. I have to say it's impressed me. When using the Aqueon vs the ReptoFilter rated for the same gallon coverage, there is absolutely no contest. The tank with the ReptoFilter becomes cloudy, and I clean the filter. In a few days, it happens again. By the time the Aqueon needs to be changed, the ReptoFilter has been cleaned until it was falling apart and then replaced! They do cost a bit more if you use the Bio Bag Unassembled version of the ReptoFilter; however, it's more than worth the price when you realize the Aqueon will last 2 to 4 times as long! It's been over a month since the last time I changed the Aqueon filter, and the water in that slider's tank is crystal clear with no algae buildup.
