Bio Sponge Filter — 4 Pack

Details

Four air-driven sponge filters with uplift tubes. No impeller, so nothing can pull in fry or shrimp, and the sponge itself becomes the biological media once it colonises.

  • The standard filter for a breeding or shrimp tank. There is no intake to guard because there is no impeller — the reason experienced breeders use these and nothing else.
  • Biological, not just mechanical. An established sponge carries the bacterial colony. Rinse in tank water, never under the tap, or you restart the cycle.
  • Four of them. Seed a new tank instantly by moving a mature sponge across from an established one.
  • Needs an air pump. Driven by air, not mains — the pump is sold separately and is not included.

Questions about this light

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an air pump?+

Yes. These run on air, not mains power. Any small aquarium air pump with airline will drive one or two.

How often do I clean them?+

When flow slows, usually every two to four weeks. Squeeze out in a jug of tank water — tap water kills the bacteria.
