Filters Corner & Sponge

Aquatop CAF Classic Aqua Flow Sponge Filters make maintenance of your home aquarium more convenient than ever. Sponge filters have been hobbyist, breeder, and hatchery favorites for decades, providing simple, efficient biological and mechanical filtration with less maintenance than traditional filters.

• A simple, classic, economical aquarium filter
• Tested by breeders and hatcheries for decades
• Less maintenance than traditional filters
• Fast and easy cleaning

Aquatop Classic Sponge Filters feature specially-developed foam material that supports the colonization of beneficial bacteria, providing mechanical and biological filtration. The bio-filtration process breaks down toxic ammonia and nitrites, preserving a clean, healthy habitat for your fish. CAF sponge filters are weighted and easy to install with an air pump or powerhead (sold separately), which provides airlift for silent operation. CAF filters may be used as stand-alone, breeding, or secondary filters, and will fit most external or top filters to act as pre-filtration units.

Directions: When performing routine maintenance, save a portion of removed aquarium water in a fish-safe container. Disassemble the sponge filter and separate the sponge from the hardware. Use the saved aquarium water to clean the sponge. Squeeze it, shake it, and rinse it out in the fish-safe container. When the sponge looks clean, reassemble the sponge filter and reinstall.

Aquarium Solutions Bacto-Surge Foam Filters provide exceptional biological and mechanical filtration, using the highest quality foam sponge available to provide ample surface area for beneficial bacteria. A unique air dispersion design pulls water through at a higher rate for thorough filtration

• Exceptional foam sponge quality supports efficient bio-filtration
• Large surface area supports increased beneficial bacteria populations
• Helps break down aquarium waste and remove suspended debris
• Ideal mechanical and biological filter for small-to-medium tanks

Bacto-Surge filters feature higher foam density per square inch to provide maximum surface area for the beneficial bacteria that eliminate organic waste from your aquarium water. These filters also feature a unique air dispersion design that maximizes uplift to pull water through at a high rate, meaning more water runs through the filter in less time. Locking internal connectors prevent separation during use, and a heavy base keeps the sponge filter firmly secured.
