Wish it had UV. 3-3.3 watts on a Kill A Watt EZ. It is a bit louder than my Aqueon 10, which is near silent, but maybe this is because it is right up against the wall? The sound isn't that bad, but since it automatically primes (if there's water in it) it's easy to turn on & off on a powerstrip. I could sleep with the sound no problem.
The oil-film processor is awesome. It automatically adjusts to the water level and quickly clears the surface! However I put a marble on it when feeding them floating food so it doesn't suck down their floating flakes (or you could set it up without the surface filter). Serpae Tetra are very fussy about top & bottom feeding & the top filter could get the flakes before they sink.
The filter sticks out the back just a few mm more than the Aqueon 10 and seems to do a much better job cleaning my tank. I keep the lid off for more oxygen. I didn't get a HOB (hang on back) filter with UV because it seems they stick out more, so I might buy UV separate. Eventually I might put foam in back because of the small vibration noise or move the aquarium forward more.

Good..It does the job, but it is as not powerful as some reviewers led me to believe. Best suited for a 5-10 gallon tank. Meh packaging and the filter came dirty. Not sure if it sat in storage too long or whether it was previously used. May end up ordering another to convert into a purely bio filter.
Edit: After a few months the filter started to sound really loud to the point where I only have it during the day. BE CAREFUL with the stability stand on the bottom of the filter. Swivel it enough and it will puncture a hole through the canister because they are just sealed with a dab of silicone. WTH! Could have flooded my floor and killed all of my fish.

Removed inserts (saved for later) and placed pillow fluff in 2 chambers, 1 a coarse sponge (Aquaclear Foam Inserts 3-Pack ), and ceramic media in the last. ( SEE PICTURE Yes... its thin BUT, perfectly doable)
Pump isn't loud At all and is plenty strong when adjusted to full open, I use mine mostly closed. IF theirs one thing i could change it would be the rigid Acrylic plastic used its the kind that cracks if squeezed, I would have preferred an acrylic like lexan or similar. Besides this i think for the Cost its Great, and not a big H.o.b. with too much Depth its like 2 1/2 Buy IT Kedsum did this one almost perfect.
