Mine just came in today but I had a question..
Is this considered a canister filter? It kinda looks like one...

But I learned that canister filters have to be below the tank for gravity to circulate water AND the tanks should be filled to the top.
BUT in the picture, it has the filter on the ground with the tank..(My teacher has both the filter and tank on a shelf too)
And why is it able to work in half-filled turtle tanks?

Anyone use this? If so, can you tell me what size tank you have and how it's been working so far?
 
Does it come with instructions? I'm not familiar with it.
 
I can't open it until next week.lol you now parent things..

but canister filters have to be below the tank right? why does this one work?
 
?
