Seachem Laboratories 6500 55 gallon/208 L/120V/60 Hz Tidal Filter

These filters are top of the line. I have a 75 gallon tank with a Tidal 55 and a Tidal 75. The filters are virtually silent compared to most HOB filters. It glides effortlessly over the back and comes with an adjustable pin to ensure its level against many types of tank brands and sizes. The media capacity is like nothing else with plenty of room for multiple sponges and matrix to fit. It has an adjustable intake to virtually almost any level.For what you spend on this product you will get what you pay for. This blows tetra brand out if the water (no pun intended). The Tidals are reliable and long lasting products. The next step up would be canister filters in my opinion.

Ótimo Filtro. Pena que é muito caro os custos indiretos atrelados ao produto. Impostos e fretes e taxas.

Excelente

One of my local pet shops just replaced all of their AquaClear filters with these. So I decided to try out a 55 tidal just to see for myself.I'm running one Tidal 55, Aquaclear 50, and an Aquaclear 20, on my 75gal aquarium.Definitely a large improvement compared to the Aquaclear 50. A larger media compartment without larger outer dimensions. Greater water flow, and a lot quieter pump. The water outflow is lower in the tank too. Allowing you to have lower tank water levels. The intake is variable in length, and can be removed if you only want to surface skim.The filter primes every startup. Unlike the aquaclear filters. Which sometimes don't prime, even when full of water.The motor was a little noisy when I first installed the filter. But has become completely silent after a week of operation. It measures in at 32db average. Whereas my aquaclear 50 measures at 43db.The black plastic blends in nicely with a black aquarium background. But the bright blue dials stand out in the tank. If they were also black in color, it would definitely look better.Another minor downside is that the surface skimmer cannot be fully disabled. It's always drawing a little bit of water. This could be a problem if you have lots of duckweed. As the plant can be sucked into the filter, clogging the foam quickly.Overall, it seems to be the new top HOB filter. Same cost as an Aquaclear. With greater media capacity, quieter operation, greater water flow, and reliable self-priming.
