I want a powerful Hang on filter, doesn't need to be biological.

I have a 100 gallon fluval tank. and it has an opening in the back.


I tried putting a Aqueon Quiet Flow 55/75 Aquarium Power Filter and it didn't fit because the motor was too big.
So what filter would fit?

Why didn't the filter fit? You have regular glass tops?

the top is removable for the hang on filter slot in the back. The motor/propeller connected to intake tube of the filter was too big and it couldnt fit in the slot. I put the ruler there to show how long the slot is, which is about 1.8 inches.

do you have one? if you do, can you please measure the filter from front to back for the motor connected to the intake strainer, and the back portion of the filter.

I have one. It sticks out about 4 inches off the back of the tank. I really like the filter.
