Aquarium Bio Sponge Filter for Breeding Fry, Betta, Shrimp, Nano Fish (Up to 10 Gal)

Sponge filters are a versatile and efficient filtration solution for aquarium owners. These filters use air bubbles from an external air pump or an integrated water pump to draw water through a sponge media, providing both mechanical and biological filtration.

The key features of sponge filters include:

Mechanical and Biological Filtration: Sponge filters trap floating debris and provide a surface for beneficial bacteria to grow, effectively keeping the water clear and clean.

Easy Setup and Maintenance: Sponge filters are straightforward to set up, requiring only an air pump and the filter itself. Cleaning is as simple as rinsing the sponge in aquarium water every 2-4 weeks.

Safe for Fish: The gentle flow of water through the sponge media creates minimal current, making it safe for delicate fish, fry, and shrimp.

Recommended Tank Size: These filters are well-suited for tanks up to 10 gallons, making them an excellent choice for small aquariums, betta tanks, nano tanks, and hatcheries.

The sponge filter kit includes three filters, each measuring 2.0" in diameter and 4.75" in height. The air-powered design ensures a reliable and efficient filtration system, with the air chamber producing tiny bubbles that increase the water's oxygen solubility.

One of the benefits of sponge filters is that they can be easily cleaned by gently rinsing the sponge in aquarium water, rather than using tap water, which could disrupt the beneficial bacteria. It's recommended to replace the sponge every 3-6 months as the pores become gradually clogged with debris.

Sponge filters are a popular choice among aquarium enthusiasts due to their simplicity, reliability, and versatility. They provide effective filtration while being safe for delicate fish and easy to maintain, making them an excellent option for a variety of aquarium setups.
