A worthwhile investment

I double the foam blocks in my AquaClear HOB filters and place ceramic rings on top. You don't need charcoal unless you're specifically using it to remove drugs or other chemicals. So if you double the foam blocks, you get a much larger biofiltration surface. I also wrapped some foam around the filter inlet. This gives you even more surface area for your beneficial bacteria. In addition, it acts as a pre-filter to keep most dirt particles and other things out of the filter compartment. Thisโ€ฆ

  • Ease of use

Adjustable, cheap to run, very quiet

This item is slightly more expensive than similar filter pumps, but you may or may not have different filter options depending on the situation. You may or may not use charcoal, or you may or may not use an ammonia remover. You can use a filter sponge or polyester wadding. You can purchase packaged filter products or create your own. You are not limited to using patented filters with a teaspoon of activated carbon in a plastic insert. This filter will likely save you money in the long run. It's

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Expensive

Perfect for our AquaClear 30 filter unit

Our 20G tank has been rotting for almost a year. When the pump ran out of water to pump, we just turned it off and it stayed that way the whole time. When I finally decided to eliminate this biohazard, to my great amazement there was still 1 small fish in the remaining 2 inches of water. My guess is that he survived on the remains of his fellow tankers and what grew there. I put it in a pyrex bowl when cleaning. Now the aquarium is washed, disinfected and filled with good water. It's like newโ€ฆ

  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

On 08/02/2019 I bought a Revain Aquaclear 30 HOB filter. I bought these Aquaclear 30 foam liners on February 24th, 2019 to use two mechanical sponges. It may not be visible in the photos, but the sponge that came with the filter has a slight yellow tinge, while the 3 pieces of sponges are completely white. The biomedia bag that came with the filter had a hole in it so biomedia crumbs were all over the inside of the filter box. IDK if this or something else caused the yellow cast. As theseโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great design

  • Crumpled packaging

Kill fish. This activated charcoal is unlike store bought.

WILL KILL YOUR FISH! This Aquaclear filter charcoal is different than the one that came with the filter I bought from PetSmart. The outside looks more like mesh than fabric. The one on the right in the picture of the old one. I thought I could trust this product based on the reviews and because it comes in official Aquaclear product packaging. I was wrong. Ever since I put it in and let the old one work in the filter at the same time, everything has been fine. After a few weeks I removed theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • No productivity
