The sponge fits perfectly on my AC30 filter. It has kept small fish safe and reduced debris in the pump. Easy to clean and lasts longer than the old sponge I used.

Works well as a pre-filter. I noticed less algae buildup near the pump after installing it. A simple upgrade that makes maintenance easier.

I use it in a saltwater tank and it handles the debris well. Rinsing it every two weeks keeps it effective without losing performance.
