Marineland Magnum 350 ok as only filter on 55g?

I’ve been using a Tetra EX70 on my 55g tank for 2 years. When we woke up yesterday, my wife and I smelled a sort of electrical burning smell. A couple hours later, the filter started sputtering and making weird noises. We rushed out to buy a new filter and the guy at the LFS recommended the…
