Product Description

Featured is a LED filter cartridge change indicator light that flashes when the cartridge becomes clogged with debris, providing a reminder that it's time to replace the cartridge. A great benefit of the Aqueon QuietFlow filters is the internal pump design that helps dampen noise, eliminates leaks and is self-priming, meaning it starts up automatically after cleaning or power interruptions. Higher flow rates also ensure a higher dissolved oxygen content for healthier, more active fish. There are five total stages of filtration–mechanical, chemical, biological and an additional specialty pad–for the cleanest, clearest, healthiest water. Stage 1 – Dense floss removes particles and debris. Stage 2 – Activated carbon removes toxins, odors and discoloration. Stage 3 – Patented Bio-Holster provides surface area for beneficial bacteria that remove toxic ammonia and nitrites. Stage 4 – Bio-Media grid supports additional beneficial bacteria establishment while adding more oxygen. It also reduces splashing making the return exceptionally quiet. Stage 5 – Specialty filter pad option for additional carbon, ammonia reducer or phosphate remover. All filters use Aqueon Replacement Filter Cartridges and Aqueon Specialty Filter Pads. QuietFlow LED Pro 10 – Medium cartridge. QuietFlow LED Pro 20, 30 and 50 – Large cartridge. QuietFlow LED Pro 75 – two Large cartridges. Change filter cartridge every 4 weeks for best results.

Aqueon QuietFlow Power Filters feature four stages of filtration – mechanical, chemical, biological and wet/dry – for the cleanest, clearest, healthiest water. Higher flow rates ensure higher dissolved oxygen content for healthier, more active fish. The internal pump design helps dampen noise, eliminates leaks and starts up automatically after cleaning or power interruptions.

Product Features

Higher Flow Rates

Aqueon filters have higher flow rates than the competition to ensure proper turnover for cleaner water and higher dissolved oxygen content, making fish healthier and more active.

Superior Biological Filtration

The patented biological grid has a large surface area to support more of the beneficial bacteria that eliminates ammonia and nitrates. A second wet/dry grid provides further biological filtration and oxygenation as the water returns to the aquarium.

Internal Pump Design

Since the filter pump is submersed in the aquarium, there is no need for priming at setup or when restarting the filter after cleaning or power interruptions. An internal pump also allows for virtually silent operation, continuous flow raters, less chance for leaks, and a much thinner profile.

Four Stage Advanced Filtration System

Stage 1: Dense floss removes particles and debris.

Stage 2: Activated carbon removes toxins, odors and discoloration.

Stage 3: Patented Bio-Holster removes toxic ammonia and nitrites.

Stage 4: Diffuser grid removes additional toxins while adding oxygen for more active fish. It also reduces splashing makes the return exceptionally quiet.

Customers like the value and ease of cleaning of the pet supplies. For example, they mention it's great for the price, the replaceable charcoal inserts are not too expensive, and it does a great job at keeping water clean. That said, some appreciate the filter.

Great Filter!

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2022

Style: 50 Power FilterVerified Purchase

Fikter is slightly loud but way quieter than my failing Aquaclear. I was skeptical at first, as the filter clogged within 24 hours. Turns out that's just how bad my previous filter was. I rinsed and reused filter for 3 days before I changed it. This thing picked up that much more suspended solids than my aquaclear, water was crystal clear. I'm on week 2 of my next cartridge and it's almost time to change, understandable as I have a heavily planted tank and there was a lot of debris. 2 thumbs up, I don't like that it's not as customizable as an aquaclear, but by God it will clean the water column.

Great Filter, Many Options & Great Value

Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2016

Style: 50 Power FilterVerified Purchase

We purchased the “Aqueon 06117 QuietFlow 50 Power Filter, 250-GPH” by Seller Aqueon for our 50 gallon fish tank / aquarium. This filter set will arrive with everything you need to install and run your filter. If you are somewhat new to having a fish tank / aquarium, you may wonder while you are browsing/purchasing your filter set-up if you need to purchase any other items not listed; don’t worry that you need any other parts, pieces or tubing, because you won’t need to purchase anything else.

The set arrives in quite a few pieces that are very easy to put together:

• Filter Housing (the main filter container);
• Filter (or Cartlidge) with a convenient finger tab on top (this finger tab is priceless when you are removing your old filter and replacing it with a new filter!);
• Biological Cartridge Holder (the plastic piece that holds the actual filter inside of the filter housing);
• Filter Pump (attaches to the bottom of the filter housing);
• Filter Tube Plate (attaches to the bottom of the filter pump);
• Filter Tube (attaches to the bottom of the filter plate).

• Filter Cover (Suggestion: don’t put the cover into place on the filter housing until you have the entire filter housing, etc. together and inside of the tank with the full set up!).

If your fish tank has a somewhat large lip around the top don’t worry – ours does as well and the filter housing should fit around the top of the tank – although you may have to tilt the housing to install it. Chances are, when you tilt the housing you may have to reattach the filter pump and tube, because they probably will fall off. Not to worry, it only takes a second to push them back on.

Before you actually plug in the filter, I would suggest that you pour some non-chlorinated water into the filter until it is full, then plug it into the electrical socket. Basically this ‘primes’ the filter so that it does not run without water inside of the housing and burn up the pump. The chances of this happening is small, if the pump only runs for a few seconds without water – but why take the chance?

[NOW you can put the cover on – once the filter is running and water is starting to circulate]

In case you are wondering why we bought a 250 gph (gallons per hour water flow rate) filter for our 50 gallon fish tank / aquarium – we did a lot of research prior to purchasing the filter. We decided to populate our fish tank with Mollies; these fish are community fish that are live bearers. They apparently do not like a high flow rate in their tank, so we settled on a 250 gph filter. Typically, you would look for a filter that is 4 to 6 x the # of gallons in your tank = the GPH filter you should look for. So, in our case, a 50 gallon fish tank is: 50 (gallons) x 5 (average gph) = 250 gallons per hour (gph) water flow.

We have had our new Aqueon filter up and running for just about 2 months now and everything is running great! If you have live plants growing in your tank, they may occasionally loose a leaf with will suck up and cover the bottom of the filter. Just remove the leaf and everything will be fine. I would not let a bunch of leaves to accumulate on the filter tube.

I was very pleasantly surprised when I went into a local feed store here in our town to see that the price that we paid here on Amazon for the filter and replacement filter cartridges (biological cartridges) was much cheaper than it was in the store! Great for our budget!

Thank you for taking the time to read our entire review. We hope that you found this review helpful and we have answered any questions you may have about this product.

We hope you have a blessed day!

The air pump is built solid. the air flow control is easily adjusted and steady. the accessories were excellent and allows for multiple arrangements. Only complaint is the noise level, it is advertised as being 'quiet' and it is loud enough that I built a carpeted box to put it in to cut down the sound in the room.

I swapped out the old and things seemed to get better - for a week or 2

Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2014

Style: 50 Power FilterVerified Purchase

I purchased this filter to replace an Aqueon 30 Quietflow filter that had stopped working on my 29 gallon tank. While it was working, it kept the water pristine and I expected the same from this filter since it was from the same manufacturer but stronger. That didn't happen. From the start the Aqueon 50 did not clean the water as well as the 30. It left particles in the water at all times and was much louder. I also noticed that only after a week the water smelled awful! I called Aqueon because I noticed that some of the water was bypassing the floss and just going right back into the tank. I was told that the floss that I had might be too dense to allow proper flow. I was sent a couple new floss cartridges. I swapped out the old and things seemed to get better - for a week or 2. The floss seems to clog quickly even with swishing in old tank water to clean once a week during water changes. I called Aqueon to ask what their recommendation was to try and quiet the impeller and they said that it was a stronger unit so of course it would be louder. I lived with the buzz for another couple weeks until today when I noticed that there was quite a bit of debris floating around in the tank and the fish were resting on the gravel. I am still 3 days away from the weekly water change. Since I do not want to change the tank water twice a week, I will be changing to another brand of filters. Maybe I just got a lemon but I also had problems restarting the filter after turning it off during the water change. It is suppose to be a self starter. I'm very disappointed in this product.

Ive had 4 of these for one tank which I set up in 2016, so plan on buying a new one every 2 years minimum. Everything is fine, I unplug it to do a water change, and the motor just won't come back on or it tries and fails. I would like to swap brands but I have 20+ of the filter inserts.

This filter is fantastic. I’m using it in my 40 gallon. Easy to clean easy to replace the filters and I like the fact that there is that second small filter inside that also helps remove algae. It is quite quiet. My only complaint is that there is no way to turn down the intensity of the stream. Other than that it’s awesome.

The long propeller part falls off when filter is dirty. I installed it less than 3 days. The attached piece is a big issue. This is the second one with the same part issue.
I repurchase this because I already purchased the filters
I don't get how greedy the manufacturer is
This is best filtration system once working
So upset
If it falls off when I am not home it will scare my axollotas

Leaks and is super loud after 2.5 months

Reviewed in Canada on August 6, 2023

Style: 50 Power FilterVerified Purchase

Well, I was super happy with this filter for the first 2 months of having it. It was very quiet and very effective.
After about 2 months it started becoming very loud and no longer quiet. I read that a dirty impeller may be the cause, so I took it all apart carefully and cleaned it all. Impeller wasn't even dirty, honestly nothing was really dirty. It still makes a terrible noise that's now distracting to have in our living room.
While doing a water change yesterday, (under 3 months), I found that it has a crack where the motor is held on. I'm assuming from the vibration during use? Anyways, it's spewing water out if it and all over the place. It's such a pain because I'd really like to replace it with something that won't break in 3 months, but I had already bought a years supply of filters for it which would then go to waste...
Absolute waste of money

I bought this to use with a brand new Aqueon 75 gallon standard aquarium as an addition to my canister filter. It DOES NOT FIT. The rim of the tank is too wide to get the filter to sit low enough to the water to work correctly. This is best suited to a rimless tank or one with a rim of 1/2 inch or less 3/8 inch would be best. The reason for the new Aqueon tank is due to trying to press this one down on my original tank which cracked it. The impeller housing also has very small clips that hold it to the main body. These will break if your tank is too wide. I found this out and had to return the item.
