Hello everyone
Quick question for the experts
I have an internal filter that is very noisy and not the best quality i think: marina i25.
Any suggestions for a better,less noisy one?
Does the tank size matters..? Mine is in the small category

Thx in advance

Hi

Yes tank size matters. Can you post volume in litres or gallons, or length, width and height of the tank only (not including lid), please?

Ive had a couple of the "fluval+" series, both are very quiet and easy to maintain.

Have since moved over to allpondsolutions externals (one HOB, one canister). Not the same quality but the HOB is silent and the canister is not audible with the cupboard door closed. Not the same quality as the fluvals but they are very cheap.

To be honest you'll be wasting your money buying a different filter for that tank. With your two goldfish you need to get a much bigger tank urgently so save your money towards the upgrade
