I replaced the sponge in my Ocellaris 3000 UVC filter and noticed a significant improvement in water clarity within a week. The filter runs smoothly and the water looks cleaner without any noticeable change in flow. Great for maintaining a healthy tank environment.
Caroline Gray –
The sponge fits perfectly in my 3000 model. It’s easier to install than the old one and holds up well after several weeks of use. I appreciate the fine pore structure which catches small particles that were previously slipping through.

Used this in my established aquarium. The water clarity improved noticeably, and the bacteria colonies stayed stable. The two pads included are sufficient for a medium-sized tank and easy to replace when needed.
