BOX sponge filters

[karlopa]

Anyone care to share where I can purchase them from? Looking for something about 5x5x5

The first person I would ask is Bill...

He is a sponsor of this site and will give you 10%.

I checked with Jehmco and Kensfish, and neither of them carry a 5x5x5.

Could you go with another size?

I'm trying to get something that is rated for 55 - 75 gallons (box) besides the regular stuff that Jemco has. No offence, I already have stuff from him but just want to keep some fishes from hiding under the sponge filters. I have seen 4x4x4 but think they are too small for these tanks. The real reason why I want the box sponges is with the box up against the background they can't hide.

Get one of the big round sponges and cut 1 part of it to 90º |_ then push it to the corner; sort of like a bow front corner tank.

Thats a good idea.

If your fish are hiding under or behind your round sponge filters, that makes me wonder if they don't have somewhere else to hide. If they don't have sufficient hiding places, they will be living in a constant state of stress, which is not a good situation. You don't need to see them all the time, and they need to get away from each other and you and any other movement outside the tank so be sure they do have places to hide.

It's just a holding tank.

They still need places to hide!

Thanks. Forgot to mention that it was resolved a while back.

I know you found some already. Just wanted to share the link. I'm using them and they last a lot longer than the round ones.
