## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it consume a lot of energy or as an usual device?**
A: I use two of them in a large tank that holds an 8 inch amphibious turtle and never noticed any change in my electric bill.

**Q: does this work with sand on the bottom of the tank?**
A: I have bare bottom tank but u suppose it would if your sand was settled and your raise the filter so it's not sitting I'm the sand.  I have read over the forums that sand can clog just depends on your set up.

**Q: Do you have to buy specifically tetra fauna medium filter cartridges, or is there a different brand I can use?**
A: My filter takes the large bags, not medium.  I think any similar size filters would probably work but these filters are a very good value on Amazon--much cheaper than purchasing in my local pet store.

**Q: 220v or 110v ??**
A: 110v
