Anyone got one of these
If so what do they think
I have just purchased a Juwel 120 with a standard box filter and was thinking of getting a powerhead for extra current, but have just seen these which look pretty cool

these are excellent filters ive used 2 for years and my cherry shrimp youngsters used to reside in the sponges of them and when cleaning i would collect about 50 new young every 2 weeks they are very good and have a venturi attachment.

I like these and have used them in the past, though changed to fluval internal canisters in most tanks. Depends on what is needed for your set up!
Must admit I am quite happy with the Aqua One FilterAir 30,60,90 and 136 etc... link below..

Aqua One Filter Air - Sponge Filters... and now I am running these additionally in two tanks ready for my move,
just to give me extra filtration and get the sponge's cycled.

I am doing this in preparation of using them in two breeding and grow out tanks after I have moved home.

They appear much more basic, but I find them ideal to add a power head or air line to the top of them,
and they do not trap fry quite like my Fluval Plus internal canister filters do (minus the ladies tights..lol).
