Description of 🐠 GUARDMAN Filter Foam Sponges: Bio Sponge Media for Aquarium, Fish Tank, Pond Filters - Cut-to-Size Open Cell Foam Sheets!

SIZE: Each pad is 9” x 9” x 1”. Each package contains two pads. Pads can be cut to fit to fit any aquarium, fish tank or pond filter. MATERIAL: The pads are made from a safe, high-density polyurethane. They are free of all dyes and chemicals. The pads are odor free and 100% pet safe for use in both freshwater and marine (saltwater) aquariums. These are an open cell sponge with reticulated design to provide better water flow and reduce clogging. They provide a safe & clean habitat for your fish and aquatic pets. SPECIFICATIONS: These pads are 30 PPI (Pores Per Inch). Independent testing has shown that this PPI rates highest in filtration effectiveness. 30 PPI is considered a coarse foam which provides a large surface area. The pads provide both mechanical & biological filtration, trap both large and small particles, and do not clog. USAGE: Each pad is durable, reusable and can be cut to accommodate various sizes and locations, indoor & outdoor. The pad can be used as a media filter or a pre-filter. Pads can be used wet or dry filters, sumps, canister filters, freshwater, saltwater, reef aquariums, fish tanks, shrimp tanks, aquaponics systems, turtle tanks, terrariums, water plants cylinder, and much more. CLEANING: New pads should not be washed, as washing will remove beneficial bacteria. After several months of use, clean the pad by filling a plastic bag or small bucket with water from your tank, very lightly swish filter sponge back and forth once or twice. A bio sponge filter will last the life of your tank and beyond.

Not what I needed. - Fish and Aquatic Animals

I was hoping that 30 ppi would work for my project. The pores looked bigger in the photos than they really were. It didn't help me.

Pros

Cons
  • Quality

Used to update the dog bowl filter.

I used this filter media to replace a very limited carbon filter in my pet's water bowl. The bowl pump now has better flow and is easier to clean.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • expensive

Highly recommended! These pads are very easy to cut and are a lot bigger than I thought they would be. They have no odor and seem to last a lifetime. Happy fish, happy wife, happy life!

  • Beautiful packaging
Cons
  • Security

Quality filter for filter accessories

This is a rigid foam filter. Exactly as described, it's completely odorless, very easy to cut/work with and of a much better quality than other filters I've had in the past. I'm happy and my fish are happy.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Weight

Great Dog Fountain Filters

I saved so much money buying these filter sponges instead of buying them at discounted prices to collect debris. I highly recommend buying these if you are using a pet fountain, they prevent debris from getting into the motor that is running through the water.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Modern

Excellent filter: Filter accessory

These sponges arrived intact and odorless. Easily trimmed to complement the filter contents that come standard with my aquarium. I'm already seeing a big improvement and will likely continue to add Biosponge or even switch to Biosponge entirely. The cleaning instructions in the display are very helpful. I definitely recommend it.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • There are cons

Chemical odor on fish and aquatic animals

When I first ordered the product I was a bit confused as the sponges were vacuum sealed. After I let them in the air, they rose very well. They have a bit of a chemical smell, but you can tell it's just a manufacturing process. Let her breathe and everything will be fine. I have these sponges in 2 of my betta tanks and they are doing great.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn
