The Skilter 250 power filter is designed to be an easy-to-use filtering system that cleans the aquarium water with mechanical, chemical, and biological action. It has a flow rate of 250 gph for fresh or salt water aquariums up to 55 gallons.The Skilter is easy to operate. The unit simply hangs on the back of the aquarium. It has been designed to be self-starting and maintenance-free. It is is manufactured of high impact plastic for dependable use. The Skilter 250 provides three stages of filtration as it passes through the Supreme Bio-Matrix cartridge. First, it is mechanically filtered by the dense polyester filter material. It then passes through an activated carbon medium that is specially designed to be an effective chemical filter. Finally, the entire cartridge, surrounded by its unique clam-shell style frame, acts as an efficient biological filter. The snap-together cartridge is easy to replace and allows for either partial or total change of the filter media. This assures uninterrupted bacterial filtration.

5A really good filter  Oct 04, 2008
By W. Currie
I have several tanks and several different filters. This one works great. Mine is old and still extremely reliable. Easist to clean and requires little maintenance of any kind. Filters are easy to clean and re-use. My skimmer tube is plugged and not needed. Self starting always which is a must.. Never a problem.

I have less trouble with this old unit than with my other pumps. When power goes I have to check the others, often fill them and mess with them to get them restarted. Not this unit, it alway re-starts.

You need something you can depend on to restart and this one is most dependable and quite. Simply one of the best

1Worst power filter ever made.  Sep 19, 2005
By Ben D. Aster
This plastic abortion doesn't even fit together correctly, much less filters an aquarium effectively. The skimmer does little more then makes a bunch of noise while sucking air into the impeller, and disturbing the intake of water; thus decreasing filtration.

Do your fish a favor and just get an emperor biowheel filtration system.
