User questions & answers

Question:	When using this to make better cat litter: If it's pebbles, wouldn't it get scooped out when you scoop the litter? Do you pulverize it before mixing
Answer:	Yes they can that is what I am using in my penn plex canister
Question:	We have marineland penguin power filter w/ multi-stage filtration. how much of this carbon do i put on a 50 gal. tank
Answer:	Yes, they fit both filters.
Question:	how much carbon should I put in my 40 gallon tank
Answer:	Activated carbon can remove odors and gases from the air, however you generally move the air through the carbon in order to do so, like you move water throught it in a fish tank. We have not researched this application with our carbon however and cannot recommend it.
Question:	can this be used in a water filtration system? (For people not fish
Answer:	We do not know what size the Sun Sun filter media trays, etc., are since we do not make that brand, however, this carbon is suitable for all brands of filters. The bags are pretty flexible and approximately 5.5" x 5.75". Hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	I want to return this bio wheel penguin 200 power filter.? i just wanted the bio wheel filter by it self
Answer:	I honestly dont think that's how it works. You'll have to return the whole item and find a listing for just the bio wheel.
Question:	Is there room inside for a water softener pillow
Answer:	Thank you for your interest in this Penguin filter, Biancat! Yes, you should have plenty of room for a water softener pillow. For more personalized assistance, please contact us directly via [email protected].
Question:	does it come with the bio wheel and filter
Answer:	Just purchased the 200 size yesterday and it included one bio-wheel and one cartridge. Just thought I'd mention that since no answers have been posted in the last year and packaging may or may not have changed in that time.
Question:	The bio wheel on our filter (new) is extremely noisey - has anyone else experienced this
Answer:	I can't take it anymore. I had to remove the bio wheel. The noise is not bubbles, not impeller, it is the wheel spraying water due to centrifugal force. Remove it... silent. I replaced my 20 year old Penguin 200 with the new one and HATE IT. 100% REGRET. ZERO STARS.

Answer:	It is just under 6 inches or 15 centimeters.

About Us

Marineland’s history is a story of innovation. This opens with Robert Sherman, a Cleveland entrepreneur and businessman who manufactured high-end lobster tanks for restaurants and grocery stores.

Marineland of the Pacific, was another oceanarium that had been operating in Palos Verdes, California, since 1954. By 1970, Marineland of the Pacific partnered with Sherman’s company to develop and market a line of filters, bubble wands and backgrounds that would be known as Marineland Aquarium Products.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use these in Aqua-tech 30-60 filtration systems
Answer:	Yes it does
Question:	Twice in 2019 i bought 6-packs of the c cartridges on amazon for about $7 a pack. why has the price of tripled
Answer:	i'll never buy another one of these aerators,after 3 of them i finally got smart and bought a 110v aquarium pump and a 110/12 volt converter. this setup is so much better you get more air flow and the aquarium pump is designed to run 24/7
Question:	Whats the actual measurement of the filter? Size from top to bottom, from side to side, I know what power filters it fits, but I need the measurements
Answer:	Just to give an idea since DVD cases can be different sizes, I have 7 shelves on each side with anywhere from 17-20 per shelf....so figure it could be up to 560. I can also fit 18 Xbox 360 games per shelf (a little more consistent in size). Hope that helps.
Question:	are you suppose to rinse the cartridge before putting it into the filter
Answer:	I had the same question. The Prepac manufacturer contacted me and here is their response: Capacity: 1173 CDs, 567 DVDs, 960 Blu-Ray discs, 336 VHS cassettes

User questions & answers

Question:	So...will this work with a timer
Answer:	Yes, I have had both of these that I've owned on an outlet style timer.
Question:	The light output is not mentioned. What is the lumen output and the color (in degrees kelvin)? thanks
Answer:	I don't remember and I don't have the package info anymore. Although I can tell you that I use it in my 29 gallon tank and it's a very sufficient amount of white light. Probably enough lumen to supply up to a 40 gallon tank. The blue night mode is very dim and tranquil.
Question:	I have tall 37 gallon marineland tank, led of which got worn out recently.Would like to know if this would fit my tank hood and does it come with any
Answer:	If you already have a Marineland hood with an opening for one of their lights, then this will probably fit. If you have just a plain glass top this will still work, but this light is designed specifically to fit Marineland aquarium hoods.
Question:	I have a ten gallon tank, is this the one that fits in the hood
Answer:	If you have a 10-gallon Marineland kit that came with a hood then it will fit. This is the same light that comes with the 29G kit and it is the same size (but more LEDs) then what come with the 10G. I wanted more light in my 10G so moved this one from my 29 to 10 and bought a Finnex Stingray and glass top for my 29.

User questions & answers

Question:	can these be used in the penn plax canister 100 filter canister
Answer:	For a 20 gal aquarium I would use the 100. The 150 is what I use on a 45 gal which is more than enough. These filters are good and have not had any problems with them. The only reason I replaced my filter was for the slight upgrade and I just changed my whole aquarium system.
Question:	Can I use carbon bags size for360 canister T size with S size also on box
Answer:	In my opinion, not well.It *might* work, but back filters aren't designed to lift water that high for extended periods of time.Also, turtles are so messy back filters aren't very capable of keeping up with them.I'd recommend either a canister filter or submersible filter, depending on the size of the tank.
Question:	Could I use this for removing oders in the air, not in a aquarium
Answer:	If the bio-wheel is not turning there are a couple of things you can try. First, try floating the bio-wheel in the tank water for at least a few hours then install it. Secondly, install the bio-wheel then remove the filter cartridge for a moment. Typically when a bio-wheel does not spin it is because of a flow rate issue.

User questions & answers

Question:	I have a brackish tank, can this be used for a brackish tank
Answer:	I believe they sink. I placed mine in a homemade filter that isn’t absolutely full yet they don’t move around.
Question:	I am reading up that people put this in a bag in the filter. Can anyone recommend what kind of bag they are using? Link if possible would be great
Answer:	I thank as long it has water moving over it then it will be fine
Question:	Is this just better in general than straight activated carbon? Like for any fish? thank you
Answer:	I would say 3 I only bought 1 and that filled one tray on the Sunsun HW-3000 and there the same size trays as the 704-B
Question:	Can u dump this in the back side of my filter and leave it as that
Answer:	You can put it in a sump, in the back section of an all in one tank, hide it somewhere out of view whatever you want. However it wont speed the cycle, it just provides extra surface area for bacteria to grow, doesnt actually contain bacteria. Use biodigest(a vial of bacteria) in combination with this and your cycle should happen quickly.
