AquaClear A615A1 First Impressions
A THUMBS UP.
I can hear it 3 rooms away grinding away. Worst case is that the motor could burn out. They are easily found from mom-n-pop pet stores to large chain stores. All in all, I highly recommend this filter and I'm a extremely happy customer! Just rinse them out once a month, don't throw that beneficial bacteria away. A canister or in tank filter is ten times more work and messy. However, lately I've purchased the Aqua Clear 70 and 50.

AquaClear A615A1 Final Thoughts
No effect.
I recently upgraded from a 10 gallon aquarium to a 29 gallon. A canister or in tank filter is ten times more work and messy. Clean the foam insert apparently it pulled a lot of dirt and needs cleaned. It wasn't producing much surface agitation. Get it and take heed to what I wrote. Get it and take heed to what I wrote. I eyedball everything and put it together with a look back at instructions.
