Description

The sponge filters consists of a 5.5" long cubelifter and a 4" x 4" x 4" poret foam (30ppi) that is glued with silicone onto an unglazed porcelain tile. This filter is optimal for 5-15 gallon tanks. Over the years, we tested several sponges in our hatchery. We believe that this sponge (made by Swiss Tropicals) is one of the best sponges on the market. Simply because it doesn't clog quickly and it doesn't fall apart like other sponges. The poret foam that the sponge filter is made of is specifically manufactured for aquarium and pond use and has a much larger inner surface than other filter materials (about 1800 sq inch per quart of volume), which permits more rapid and superior growth of bacterial cultures.

Solid
By Elizabeth Morris from Ontario, Canada on October 06, 2021
These are great filters. I will continue to use these exclusively. Superior to the others that I’ve tried. The sponge material feels like better quality and I have heard from multiple fish keepers that they do indeed break down slower than many other brands made out of that kind of foamy material I’m used to. Solid sponges!

Wow! Works wonders on my snail tank
By Melanie from London, Canada on May 22, 2020
I have a 10g aquarium that has black worms and snails. Mostly ramshorn snails. There are a lot of snails in this tank.

The water is nice and clear and keeps up to the large amount of snail poop.

Best Sponge filter
By Myles from Edmonton, Canada on November 12, 2018
I have poret and ATI sponges... the Poret is far superior in quality. One 4" in ten gallon aquarium is all you need, I run 2 in 30 gallon, never have ammonia or nitrites... I moved away from the the complexity of canister filters. This makes filter cleaning a 2 minute job. Just squeeze it out once a month and your done.

I will never go back to power filters

Quality product
By Martin Proietti from Quebec, Canada on June 01, 2017
When you receive Poret foam you immediately see that the quality is far superior to other foams. If you are looking for a product that will last years ... this is for you
