The Tetra Whisper internal aquarium filter is the ultimate in quiet, convenient 3-stage filtration. The dual-sided mesh of the Bio-Bag® catches debris and fish waste while the activated carbon absorbs odors and discoloration. Biological filtration is provided by the Bio-Scrubber. Bio-Scrubber's anti-clog design provides complete biological filtration with the convenience of less maintenance. Because the Bio-Scrubber has a solid back, water is forced to flow evenly over the bacteria-rich bristles. The filter is submersible. 

NOTE: The filter now comes with a clip to hold the filter. If suction cups are needed please contact Consumer Services at 1-800-322-1266.


This product comes in the following sizes:
Whisper 3i - 20 GPH
Whisper 10i - 80 GPH
Whisper 20i - 125 GPH
Whisper 40i - 170 GPH
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Low flow filter! I bought this filter for use in my Dwarf African frog tank. They love the flow rate, nice and slow. It does a great job.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Useless clip, useless filter I bought it last week and when I went to install it, found the clip will not go around the edge of my tank and product doesn't come with suction cups. Was instructed to purchase them from the website and I'm not paying $20 for 2 suction cups. That is more than the filter cost. POINTLESS. I can't recommend this to anyone unless you want to pay more more than the cost of the filter for suction cups.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Have to buy additional product I brought this product and had to return it. I tried to use the clip that came with the filter and would not work in my small rim. I contacted customer support. They said that this model does not come with suction cups and will have to be brought separate. I looked on the site said $2.49 for one plus S/H. I didn't want to spend additional $10 for a $10 equipment. I returned the item and brought another product.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not happy Spent over $20 on this filter for my 20 gallon long tank it makes a loud vibrating noise and gurgles water in the back part! It’s so loud I can hear it loudly across my room I can only imagine how annoyed my poor fish must be.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works Great Lots of negative reviews here, so I thought I’d chime in. This filter works great for my standard 10 gallon aquarium set-up. My last off-brand filter stopped working after 2 weeks and my aquarium started getting cloudy. I popped this filter in and the water was clear again within the hour. Time will tell, but for the purpose, this filter works fine. Can’t beat the price. It’s a little bigger than I’d like aesthetically, but if it works and my fish stay healthy, I can’t complain!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from 3i not flowing water in less than a month Bought a glo-fish cube aquarium from Tetra and it came with the 3i bubler filter. It worked fine for 29 days and quit flowing water. Replaced the filter and still no flow through the filter. Bubling is functioning just fine but now without filtration, the water is beginning to become cloudy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far the Whisper 40i has been perfect I bought several of these for my smaller turtle tanks. Wrapping the bottom with polyester media prolongs need to clean filter and protects the impeller from clogging. I recommend this particularly for Turtle tanks 20 gallon or less.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from WHISPER FILTER Just installed the whisper 3 and not impressed. It doesn't fit right in my tank I can not put the lid on, the motor has to be higher than the water level and the plug in has to hang ???. It just spits out water from the spout but the clear bubble part is going strong. Its not designed for my tank and I will find a more suitable one then return this one.
