Disappointing sponge filter for aquariums

This sponge filter did not meet my expectations. While it was easy to install it did not effectively filter my tank .The water remained cloudy AND dirty even with frequent water changes. Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I know that investing in better Pet Supplies is worth it in the long run. In this case, I would not recommend this product..

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Ineffective filtration

Horrible Filtration Ability

Through trial and error I found that this sponge filter is not effective for maintaining CLEAN water in my aquarium. The sponge was too porous and allowed debris to pass through, leaving my tank looking dirty..

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Poor filtration ability

I bought this to use as a spare and replacement filter sponge for my 20 gallon tank. Haven't used it yet but I really like the cascade filters and the bio sponge that came with it was awesome so I have to assume they're pretty cool too. I can say that the package arrived on time and well sealed, as described.

Pros
  • Cascade Hang On 100 Power Filters
Cons
  • Negative Gift
