Would it be possible to have a hang over tank filter, such as a Marineland Penguin and still have this fit right?

If you detach the small plastic strip on the back (easily done), I imagine that a hang-on-back filter would fit just fine.

yes. however you'd have to cut the plastic guard to fit your filter in the tank. measure how far the filter sticks out when placed in the tank and then cut the plastic accordingly.

Yes! i have two marinleand penguin 350's on each side. You have a separate piece of plastic toconnect to the back of the glass and you can cut out the perfect amount to fit it.

Yes, the top fits a 20 LONG tank lengthwise and widthwise doesn't cover the WHOLE top of the tank. There is enough space for a HOB filter. The top comes with a small plastic piece than you can cut and slide on the back to fill the gap in the back, leaving room for the filter or whatever else you have. Without this, your tank will evaporate water MUCH quicker than it would without it. Also includes a little mini handle than has adhesive to lift the front side of the glass to feed fish/add carbon/fertilizer etc.

yes those lids have a rubber or plastic piece on the end that you can cut to fit the filter or I just take that piece off and leave the back open. It leaves about an inch or two open in the back.

Absolutely, I have fluval C3 hanging on mine. You will have to cut the plastic extender strip but that's it.

Yes. Just trim the pack plastic strip to fit around the filter. Very easy to do.

The filter will fit on whatever tank from 36 gallons and up, smaller than that I don't think so.

Yes these grids will fit that filter. When changing them, turn the assembly upside down. It will make the task a lot easier.

It might. Just barely if so. You might want to aquire the dimensions of your tank and the filter itself before purchasing. Just ah thought. If not you can always send it back ya know. No harm no foul.

It looks like it would only fit on the side, and that would greatly detract from the looks of the aquarium, plus you have a built in filter, so that function would be overkill. I would look for a in tank UV light, or a different aquarium option.

I have the PF40, so I can't tell you anything about the PF25. I have had the PF40 on a 47G column tank and a 55G tank (barely fit the 55G). If you buy the filter rated for your tank size, it will fit. The PF25 is rated for aquariums up to 25 gallons. If you need it for a tank bigger than a 30 gallon, I'd buy a bigger filter size.

This filter has a "lip" that allows the filter to hang over the tank into the water. I hope that answers your question!

Yes, I used it as a freshwater tank. However, there are better alternatives for freshwater that are cheaper and give you much more tank space for the same footprint. I retired my Nuvo and went to a standard tank with a hang on filter. Also, small fish (I had the problem with a couple of loaches) can get into the filter through the overflow and it is next to impossible to get them out- there are almost no saltwater fish small enough to be a problem.

It comes with a clip where you can hang off the side of your tank. I actually have it placed on top of the filter in my fluval edge 6g.

More than likely. My tank has a very unique shape but holds fine. I did have to cut the strap off because i did not like the way it looked.

No this is for an itty bitty tank, maybe 1 gallon, and itty bitty filter. :)

If they live in an aquarium there's no reason it shouldn't work but unless it's pretty large tank (55 gal) full of water it's probably going to be too powerful. In that case you'd likely run into some problems with the height of the intake/discharge tubes as well. Also, you can adjust the flow rate using the discharge shut-off valve if it is too powerful but having to turn it down a lot will probably make it noisy and perhaps get easily clogged. There's a 250 gph version of this filter too that hangs on the back of the tank. http://www.amazon.com/Marineland-PC0250HSB-H-O-T-Magnum-55-Gallon/dp/B000260FVQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389730490&sr=8-1&keywords=marineland+magnum+250

if you mean a hang on back filter then no, what i would do is mount it to the front rim of the tank anyway that way it frontlights your tank not backlighting it.

It is possible, however I am not positive. I think that there is enough adjustment in the clamp that would allow it to go over the top. The thing that would concern me would be once you hook it up to the filter return, there is a little pressure on the hose that has a tendency to tip the skimmer. Not sure if the inflatable ring would be strong enough to keep this from happening. So it may not work properly. If there is a return policy you could always try it and if it don't work properly send it back. Hope this helps

yes it would... you would probably need to clean the filter more often if you use a lot of air... that is a big tank and this is a small filter but it would work... personally I would get a bigger one if I had a 60 gallon tank...

you can cut the tube on the side that goes into the tank. make it the length that you need. the slotted part comes off the filter tube and that is where you cut to make it shorter

Yes you should be able to do that. When you order a new tank like I did the filter replacement was included. Hope this helps you. All the connections on the new tank were the same as the old one. It was an easy swap.
