Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I have read a lot about filters in the forum. What do you all know about this one? Would you all recommend it?

Turtle Clean 501 Canister Filter

Keep your turtle’s habitat sparkling with Zoo Med’s new Turtle Clean 501. Clean water is essential to the health of all aquatic and semi-aquatic turtle species, and the 501 traps suspended particulate waste, removes odor and chemicals with activated carbon, and breaks down organic toxins with a biological filtration section. The Turtle Clean 501 filter is also great for vivariums, box turtle pools, and aquariums up to 30 gallons.

I think the key words there is "up to 30 gallons". This tells me it is not a very powerful filter, my Fluval is rated for up to 200 hundred gallons I believe.
