Review: You gotta have the poop bag! - Look !!! If u want less maintenance. Less test strips or none @ all. You need this poop bag. This can be changed every 3 weeks or. Rinse it every 4-5 days and get 6 weeks out of it. But if you struggle with green water. Brown water, nasty water. And no matter what- you can’t have crystal clear water. You need good filtration. And these poop bags. No sun light u will get algae bloom always. And UV bulbs for the filtration tank to kill algae as it grows.. that’s it crystal clear!water all day long. Water changes barely never. No algae and the poop bags keep the nitrates low !!! Check each week the bag and filters. Easy…. I literally change the water 30% every six weeks and clean the filter and bags every 2 weeks.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This ammonia remover is a great component to include with a Fluval canister filter
*by G***S on July 19, 2025*

This ammonia remover is a perfect component to include with a Fluval canister filter, we have the Fluval FX4 for our red eared slider in a 55 gallon tank and this helps keep the water crystal clear for extended periods of time. If you've always struggled keeping a turtle tank clean, a canister filter with this ammonia remover is definitely going to save you a lot of time and headache. You should also consider adding the biological material remover along with this product.
