Works well and easy to put together although I have had a lot of trouble with the bio wheel. It won't turn, I have to poke it until it turns usually.

Its better to have two filters then one especially in a large fish tank. This has exactly that, water flows well and has minimal noise.

Best For your Money
August 12, 2011
Same Quality As Emperor 400 but less in Money! it also has 4 slots for filter cartridge, They now also make Media Basket ,just like the Emperor !(sold Seperate)! The only differences between them is 1) Money,2) 50gph different,3) Emperor use spray bar to drive bio-wheel, but bio-wheel 350 use water outlet flows! 4)Emperor can adjust water flow
over all ,an Excellent HOB filter, just a bit downside on the noise!
