01AQUARIUM FILTERS & PUMPS
Gentle filtration for delicate aquatic life
A quiet presence at the bottom of the tank, this black sponge filter works without the turbulence that often unsettles sensitive fish. It sits unobtrusively among plants or substrate, maintaining clarity without disrupting the ecosystem.
Ideal for breeding tanks, maternity setups or homes with small species like dwarf cichlids and guppies, it offers a gentle flow that prevents fry from being drawn into the intake.
02FUNCTION
Dual-stage cleaning for clear water
The unit handles both mechanical and biological tasks simultaneously. As air is pumped through the system, water passes through the porous sponge material, trapping solid waste particles while hosting beneficial bacteria. This dual action promotes gas exchange, raising dissolved oxygen levels throughout the tank.
04DETAILS
Compact footprint with simple setup
Measuring 4.5 inches in depth and 8.0 inches in height, the filter occupies minimal space in smaller volumes. Installation requires only an airline connected to an external pump; the pump and tubing are not included. The package contains one sponge filter unit, ready to serve as a primary or secondary filtration source.

About this product
A sponge filter uses bubbles of air from an external air pump,or an integral water pump to draw water through the sponge.As water is drawn out through the lift tube or pump,it is replaced by water entering the sponge.Sponge filters provide both mechanical and biological filtration.Most sponge filters are reasonably efficient filters for small volume tanks.These filter are excellent for small size fish like dwarf cichlid,guppy,killifish etc.,or for hatcheries,maternity tanks,and fry tanks,as the filter produces minimal current and has almost no way to suck the fish through the filter.Also,the air infusion chamber produces minute bubbles which increase the oxygen solubility.
