NICREW Internal Fish Tank Filter MAGI-200 Review | GREAT for small Aquariums
This great little internal aquarium filter from NICREW is similar to a lot of other small aquarium filters, it has a few key features which set it apart. Firstly it has a clear spray bar which makes it blend into the aquarium easier. Also it features a replenishable cartridge for chemical media, which many other nano filters simply do not have. This aquarium filter is very small and quiet making it perfect for small tanks in bedrooms.

    A others have stated, i believe the flow is way to strong. I put the Magi200 (5-10 gallon) model in my 29 gallon as a filtration assist and no matter where i pointed the spray bar below the surface it created a very visible current in the tank. Plants where moving in every part of the tank and my floaters started circulating around the top. I cant imagine what it would do to a Betta in a 5 gallon or even 10 gallon tank. Using the airator/power head attachment makes the current even more strong. However i will say that it seriously oxygenates the water.

    Just set this exact filter up on my 7.5 gal cube a couple weeks ago and am loving it. Super quiet and love that you can add your own media in the little compartment (I added Eheim SubstratPro to mine). I find the flow a little strong for such a small aquarium, so I put some course filter sponge in the vertical extension outflow tube that attaches to the spray bar and it works a treat. :)

    You never replace most filter media or you would remove your beneficial bacteria. You can just squeeze it out in tank water while doing a water change so it isn't too clogged with physical gunk, and put it back in. (Squeeze it out in a bucket of water you are removing, it will be very dirty)

    I have the same filter for my 10 gal tank for my betta. what I'd suggest is either upgrading to a larger tank or setting up your tank so most of the water flow is disrupted by your tank decorations to make it more gentle. My betta found himself some gentle spots he likes to hang around.

In big tanks it can work out because the herbivores eat slower than it grows but in smaller tanks the herbivores win. Finding that balance is hard 😉

    The air hose and valve go above the water level to add air to the out flow. With the length of hose provided you will need to keep it near the surface, I imagine you can put a longer hose on it but I dont know how that will affect the draw.
