Looking for sponge filters

[georgedv]

I am looking for sponge filters for 10, 20L, 20H, 29, 55 gal tanks. Can anyone suggest any brand/models and a good source?


Thanks

I like the ATI band. There are cheaper "knock-offs", too.

Thanks Mike, that is a good brand...can you suggest what models w/respect to tank size...and a good place to buy them from?

thanks again

I buy mine locally (I support local dealers whenever possible) & use filters 1 step up from what it recommended: 20 gal. size in 10 - 20 gal. tanks, etc. In my grow-out 29H, I use pond sized sponge filters. With slow rates of water turnover, it doesn't hurt to "supersize" your filters.

I also like to support locals but.... If I have to purchase in volume as it seems you do I would use HydroSponge filters and I would purchase them from www.jehmco.com They ship same day and give quantity discounts. Its where I get all of my fishroom stuff from.

Thanks for all the info. just ordered a bunch for the tanks going into the new fishroom.

I will head out to Lowes or HD and see what I can find in pond filtetrs as Mike suggested....I like this idea....could save some bucks!!!


again thank you
