Enhance Your Aquarium Filtration with Fluval Edge Pre-Filter Sponge - A1387 Review

Update: I've had this in my tank for a while and can visually see how much work it's doing. It does an excellent job of filtering out feces and dirt that would otherwise get caught in the filter itself. This helps that I don't have to clean the filter mats in the device as often and the components get slimy or dirty from deposits. I clean it about every two weeks by taking it out, squeezing it out and hitting it on the edge of the sink. Don't skip the last step if you want to remove anything…

I have a 30 gallon aquarium and have used an Aqua Clear 70 filter for 10 years. The filter doesn't get dirty and my little fish and frogs don't get sucked into the filter.

This, along with the drain-blocking Aqueon plastic bottle, makes my aquarium safe for even the tiniest ghost shrimp. My cock tail is no longer sucked into the filter. Oh I have a rock…

I tried it on our filter system. Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter, 30 to 60 gallons. I placed it on the underside of the intake pipe after removing the basket. When I got up in the morning, no water came out of the filter system. I saw a tiny stream. The pre-filter sponge seemed fine to me, but when I touched the bottom where the intake pipe hole is, there was a lot of dirt. I removed it and of course the dirt went everywhere. As a newbie to the fishing hobby, I'm wondering if I made a mistake…
