DIY Sponge Filter For Aquaclear filters

[Malawiandude]

I was trying to figure out easier way to make a sponge filter over the Aquaclear filters on fry tanks as i hated having to ziptie that blue bonded marineland stuff over intake and change it out ziptie new one on, i had some extra AC sponges from mini's i think, i simply cut so far down in the middle with scissors and shove the intake tube in and it's far away enough from intake so not very strong intake at all for fry sakes...I like it..hope this helps, takes like 2minutes to make.

Very cool...If I ever have a fry tank, I'll remember that..Looks nice and clean in there too, by the way

I use the Aquaclear 20 sponges over the intakes of my HOB filters. They only cost $1.49 and work great!
