AQUANEAT 3 Pack Bio Sponge Filter for Fry, Betta, Shrimp in Small Tanks (up to 10Gal)

Product Description: Sponge Filter

Functionality Overview
A sponge filter operates by using air bubbles generated from an external air pump or a built-in water pump to pull water through a porous sponge material. This process not only filters debris but also promotes beneficial bacteria growth.

Maintenance Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended to rinse the sponge every 2 to 4 weeks. Instead of using tap water, washing the sponge with water from the aquarium can prevent the loss of beneficial bacteria. Additionally, replacing the sponge after 3 to 6 months is advisable because the sponge's pores may become clogged with tiny particles over time.
