Can anyone comment on the quality of the Cascade 700 for a 55 gallon tank?

Any opinions would be helpful. I have read about the XP 4, Fluval, and the Eheim debate, but I am currently looking for economy.

Thank you
Victor

You should have at least cascade 1200 for up to 150 gallons for your 55 gallon turtle tank. Generally, your filter should be capable of 3x OR MORE filtration than the size of your tank for turtles or else you will be doing water changes every day.
