Is this a decent pump?

I needed a new filter an am new to this and I purchased this one. I wanted real advice and not amazon reviews on it. Any and all advice greatly appreciated. Thank you

What’s your tank size/stocking? It really just depends on what you’re aim is with the filter. If you just want biological filtration, any filter I’d pretty much okay for that.

If you want a cleaner looking tank, this could be a little small. This depends on the size tank/stocking.

A tank with one Betta will typically stay cleaner than a tank with 6+ schooling fish.

For the record, I’d recommend Aquaclears or SeaChem Tidals for HOB filtration. Again, depends on size tank.

Well it looks like a well made filter that they put some thought into. Looks like it will hold enough media for the size tanks it good for. Has a dial to slow flow for smaller tanks and I guess when fully open will work for a 30g. It just isn’t saying the flow rate. Hygger does seem to be making some nice products for aquariums. I have one of there heaters and a light and both work great.

Awesome thank you so much, I have heard hygger makes good products. I'm always iffy with amazon reviews because I know they give people products free to say it's a good item. I'm new to aquariums but I wanted to make sure it was a filter that had trays I could change the bio media in and also one that didn't have disposable filter cartridges. I have a 10 gallon but plan on upgrading when I learn more along the way
