## Description

The Tetra® Whisper® EX Power Filter for aquariums offers silent, multi-stage filtration for clean, clear water. The Tetra Whisper EX filter is designed to move your aquarium’s water continuously. The outflow maximizes water oxygenation while the motor operates silently. Unlike other filters, the Whisper EX directs water through multiple layers of floss to remove particles. The carbon inside eliminates odors, discoloration and impurities. The Bio-Scrubber removes ammonia and nitrates that are deadly to fish. Setup is fast and easy. The Whisper EX is ready to go right out of the box. Simply adjust the extension tube, place the filter in your aquarium and plug it in. The submerged motor begins filtering water immediately – no priming required. Keep your hands and floors dry with the cartridge carrier. Its round design minimizes dripping and makes cartridge changes cleaner and easier. Choose the Tetra Whisper EX Power Filter that fits the size of your tank, from 10 gallons to 70 gallons. This Tetra Whisper EX 70 filter works for tanks 45 to 70 gallons (340 GPH) and uses large Tetra Whisper EX Carbon Filter Cartridge refills. Since 1951, Tetra has developed the world’s most comprehensive body of fish food knowledge, and fishkeeping enthusiasts have looked to the brand for products and solutions that add ease and beauty to their home. Whether you're an experienced hobbyist or just starting out, Tetra has everything you need – from a large variety of quality fish food and innovative equipment to test kits and decor.

Review: Best choice filter - Immediately satisfied. I have a small 20 gallon tank with same filter but it’s maximum rated capacity was 20 gallon same brand /style. It was good but not enough filtration capacity. So I ordered this large 70 gallon capacity. It’s turning the water over through the filter pads in less than an hour scrubbing the water clean. I realized quickly that the small 20 gallon simply wasn’t enough filtering power. I have 5 goldfish so for 20 gallon that’s about maximum population so needed better filtration. I like the easy of filter media change out. No mess no time consuming maintenance. I did consider a couple of canaster filters on desertcart and thought that’s way to time consuming to open it up and rinse out the trays then reload it with 5 different filter media reseal the can and reinstall it. Way too much time involved I recommend this filter to anyone not interested in spending several hours. It’s overkill for my size tank and so it should really to a great job filtering out contaminate. The pickup intake tube goes to the bottom of tank nicely thus drawing water through the filter from area where the most debris are present It is very quite as a plus consideration
Review: Easy to assemble and it does not make loud noise - I just assembled it and it was really easy! Great design, and no noise at all! The quality is great and functions perfect for my 20 gallon fish tank. Great size. Totally recommend it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this come with biobag and carbon filters or do u have to buy some ?**
A: Your initial purchase of the filter includes the Whisper Bio Bags ( 1 of them for the models 20, 30 and 45, 2 for the 70) and the Bio Scrubbers (again, 1 for the 20, 30, 45 models and 2 for the 70).  You should replace your cartridges on a monthly basis, but can rinse them in between changes.  The Bio Scrubbers should literally last forever, unless you lose them or damage them somehow. Wash these off in a bucket of tank water with a toothbrush.

**Q: Does it have a warranty**
A: Yes, it comes with a 3 year warranty on all manufacturer's defects. This does not include normal wear and tear or abuse, of course, but Tetra has a very liberal warranty policy.  If you need warranty help, call 1-800-526-0650.

**Q: Could you add a sponge filter to the intake so it becomes Fry friendly?**
A: Yes, you sure could!  You could use sponge media or filter floss.  Just be sure to clean or replace it whenever it becomes clogged.

**Q: Is this filter effective for turtles?**
A: In order to use this filter for a turtle aquarium, your water level must stay ABOVE the minimum water level line at all times, which means it needs to be within 3-4 inches of the top of the tank.  This is a problem with most turtle tanks unless you have a Turtle Topper. Otherwise, it will work well for a turtle tank.

### ⭐ Great filtration, but unbearable noise levels
*by A***R on October 13, 2017*

I have a hexagonal tank that is tall and thin, meaning filters for rectangular tanks with the same size rating can struggle to create good circulation in the bottom half of the tank. I sized up to the EX 20 to get a higher flow rate. This unit does a great job with both mechanical and biological filtering and my entire tank is turning over much better now. Also, it does not create too much current for my tiny Oranda goldfish, which can be a problem with more powerful filters since they tend to be poor swimmers. My only drawback is that this thing can be LOUD, and I mean LOUD, if it isn't situated exactly so on the back of your tank. There is a small rubber bump on the bottom of the housing that helps balance the back of the unit against the rear glass, but it also creates a vibration point. I ended up sticking a tiny piece of craft felt between the bump and the glass to help dampen the noise, and so far so good. I also put a narrow strip of felt near the top edge of my tank since there is a lip that sometimes vibrated against the housing. Overall, quality seems good/ sturdy construction and it was very easy to set up and clean. UPDATE 1/15/2018: Filter has become unbearably loud, even with my DIY sound dampers. The filter itself is now making a loud rumbling noise that I can't fix. I have tried disassembling and cleaning all of the moving components several times and adjusting how it sits on the tank, but it doesn't help at all. Something is wrong with the powerhead itself and it has become so loud that it interferes with watching TV in the living room and I can hear it when I'm trying to sleep. I've taken it apart and there is nothing visually wrong with the unit, and I use large gravel substrate that could not be sucked into the filter to damage it. I'm outside the return window for amazon, but I did register for the Tetra warranty and I will be returning this thing ASAP. Extremely disappointed that it deteriorated so quickly.
