Aqueon 06080 QuietFlow 10 Power Filter, 100GPH

Q: Do I need a bubble disk for oxygen or extra aeration, or will this filter suffice?

My experience says you should always use a bubbler in addition to your filter! I add a bubbler for extra breaking of the surface tension and gas release from the aquarium (which helps saturate more oxygen in the water). I've run these Aqueon filters without a bubbler, but the fish seem to be more lethargic with the filter alone. The bubbler is cheap insurance. I am currently running nine tanks ranging from 10 gallons to 180 gallons and have put a bubbler in all of them. On most of the tanks the bubbler is on a battery backup. If a power failure takes down your filter, a bubbler alone can keep a healthy tank alive for days.

Q: This looks like the filter I just got on a 10 gl tank, no info on filter, just "Aqueon" has a filter cartridge, I measured 4 x 4.5 what is size?

The filter is 4.5" wide, and 4.25" high.

Q: Can anyone tell me how tall this filter is from the very top edge of the tank to the top of the filter, I have very little clearance and need to know this info ?

The filter is 2-1/8 inches from the rim of the tank to the top of the lid. However, you will need a good six or seven inches above the tank to remove it for cleaning if the filter is left whole when you remove it. You could disassemble the pump from the filter while it is still in the tank and get away with just over four inches of clearance and remove just the tank portion of the filter for cleaning. For this kind of clearance problem a small remote canister filter might be a better choice.

Q: I have a small 5 gallon tank. Can this filter fit on that size tank?

When you say "fit", I think you mean fit the hood that comes with the tank. If the filter opening of the hood is more than 7" long by 2" wide, then the QuiteFlow 10 should fit it. Otherwise, you have to open up the filter opening. The intake tube inside the tank is adjustable and the filter hangs 3" down outside the tank. It's a great little filter. It has space in the filter to fit an extra carbon bag. After a year at this, the most important maintenance item is the weekly 10-20% water change.
