Skilter 250 Power Filter
The Aquamaster 250 power filter is designed to be an easy-to-use filtering system that cleans the aquarium water with mechanical, chemical, and biological action. It has a flow rate of 250 gph for fresh or salt water aquariums up to 55 gallons.

The Aquamaster is easy to operate. The unit simply hangs on the back of the aquarium. It has been designed to be self-starting and maintenance-free. It is is manufactured of high impact plastic for dependable use. The Aquamaster 350 also has an extra large filter box that leaves plenty of room for additional filtration media to supplement the Bio Matrix Filter Cartridge. If you feel additional chemical or biological filtering is needed to balance your aquarium's needs, the Aquamaster 350 is designed to give this type of versatility.

The Aquamaster 250 provides three stages of filtration as it passes through the Supreme Bio-Matrix cartridge. First, it is mechanically filtered by the dense polyester filter material. It then passes through an activated carbon medium that is specially designed to be an effective chemical filter. Finally, the entire cartridge, surrounded by its unique clam-shell style frame, acts as an efficient biological filter. The snap-together cartridge is easy to replace and allows for either partial or total change of the filter media. This assures uninterrupted bacterial filtration.

I'm going to have to disagree Brad . Have you used the unit personally? I havn't but from the discription it sounds like its an okay unit and for a price of $34.99 it wouldn't hurt to try it. In essence its a HOB aquaclear 55 with a small skimmer built it.

It depends what goldie is using it for, if its for a nano then it would work excellently, just replace the filter floss with live rock rubble and you have all 3 types of filtration occuring in one cheap set up. Little fast to just shoot it down with out knowing the intended use.
