Hey there. Currently I have a aqua 65 and am wanting to add an hang on filter. The only problem however is that I am worried that one may not be suitable as it may not be able to rest correctly on the rim of the aquarium. I will let the pics do the talking but do you think it will be possible to fit one at the back of my tank? It seems that the one section that may be thin enough may be too narrow and that the rim may be too wide. So are there any hang on filters that are good for wide rim tanks?
 
 

 
 

 
 
Many thanks for any help given 
 
 
 
I would recommend taking a ruler to a store and asking if they would unpack a filter you're interested in for you to measure it (or if they have them on display to measure those). 
 
Where in the world are you? There are limitations based on country to a degree. Hagen in the UK is an example.
 
I fixxed my problem with a little file. Ground down the area on the filter that were rubbing so it would sit flat and tight on the edge
