What is the width from edge-to-edge (side to side) for this filter? I have a hex aquarium, so each side is only about 8 inches wide.

No problem. Width is 7 1/8". Once hung, depth from tank to back of filter is 2 3/4"

There is no problem in using a filter bigger than what you need. Every model has a limit, as long the model is for a bigger tank than you have is OK.

It's about 2 and a half inches from the tank to the back of the filter. I would give it at least another half inch or so for a total of 3 inches.

If possible, measure your current filter. It must be 20 inches long and no more than 2.5 inches wide. No wiggle room on dimensions

You can see that the front side of the filter forms an inverted "U" at the top; this "U" fits over the edge of the filter and supports it. The width of the "U" is approximately 13". I understand you to be asking will the filter support fit in a slot of those dimensions and the answer is yes. I don't see how the depth of the slot is relevant.

The thickness of your tank edge also needs to be taken into consideration. Thicker edges will make the filter sit higher. But if you have low clearance, you may also have a problem having access to changing the filter cartridge since it needs to slide upward and towards the front. Buy one at a local Petsmart and try it out. If it does not fit, return it for a refund. If it does work, still return it for a refund and buy on line to save some money.

The opening for filters is 15 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches deep. I have 2 hang on the back filters on it and they fit together side by side with adequate room.

not sure mine is wide open, but if you look up the filters you should be able to get a length of them. It is a great filter

The actual dimensions for these filters is - 1/4'' on length and width and - 1/8'' on thickness. For example, a 20'' x 25'' x 1'' filter is actually 19-3/4'' x 24-3/4'' x 7/8'' .

My tank is 12x24" & the top fits perfectly. I guess it depends on your filter. There are cord cutouts at each corner.

No this is for an itty bitty tank, maybe 1 gallon, and itty bitty filter. :)

Looks like 3 inches to me from the back of the acquarium to the wall this filter will need 3 inches. Hope this helps.

Hi Swan, Please read the dimensions of the product package: 9.8 x 5.3 x 2.5 inches for a double pack. In other words the product will fit any system tube with dimensions as 9.8 Long x 2.5 wide in inches each. Measure your old filter and see if it fits. Looks like it could fit, good luck. Ciao!

Judging from the description, I would say, no. But here are the measurements of the filter so you can judge for yourself: 3-1/8" across the bottom, 4-3/8" across the top and it's 2-3/8" tall. Hope this helps.

This filter is 4 inches wide. I'm guessing that the slot for your filter is not that wide, since you've been using 1-inch wide filters; but you can check. I change my filter once or twice a year.

That is hard to answer, as I do not not know the size of the intake on that model of filter. If it is any help, I can say that the inside opening on the sponges I received were roughly an inch across (I am going from memory on this). It does seem they would offer a bit of leeway in either direction, I just cannot guarantee that they would fit what you have.

The diameter of the opening in the center of the filter is 1 inch. The total filter diameter is 2 5/8 inches.
