Aquarium Sponge Filter (2cm–8.3cm)

Aquarium Sponge Filter (2cm8.3cm)

The Aquarium Sponge Filter provides reliable mechanical and biological filtration to help keep your aquarium water clean, clear, and healthy. Powered by an air-driven system, it creates gentle suction that traps floating debris while providing an ideal environment for beneficial nitrifying bacteria to colonise the sponge.

As water passes through the sponge, waste particles are captured while aerobic bacteria naturally break down harmful substances, helping maintain excellent water quality. Its gentle filtration makes it an excellent choice for breeding tanks, fry tanks, shrimp aquariums, discus tanks, and small tropical fish aquariums.
