This filter was bundled with my fish tank. I have bought a new filter because I couldn't handle the amount of water that was leaking from it on any given day. No media is included, and the inlet pipe has been reduced by a few inches by the previous owner. The filter does run fine, it just allows a slow trickle of water to leak out of the canister, by the clips. It is also an absolute pain to get started (possibly because of this?). People have told me it could be the o-ring, or the plastic around the clips might have warped, or even the clips themselves. I couldn't tell you what the problem is but I can't be bothered trying to fix it.

Buyer must collect from Southall, West London, or arrange a courier independently.
