    I cut the filter to match my filter device and works great. My aquaria are heavy planted, and with natural wood, plush fish and snails so theres a lot to filter. I rinse the filter pads (weekly) and use them for 2 - 4 weeks depending on load. The water flow may be reduced before water getting cloudy or dirty looking. The filter rinses very nicely, doesnt lose structure as other filters when rinsing for reuse.

    If you desire to keep your fish tank clean and have clear water without cloudiness, these are the finishing touch. No doubt about it, the filters are easy to cut and the quality is superb!

    I have used many other filter pads in my reef aquarium, and these are the best by far! I have used blue, green, and red filter pads they all worked about the same. When I bought these, I assumed it was just going to be the same thing as well. I mostly bought them because I figured it might be better to use a filter pad that did not have any color dye. Wow, was I mistaken, these pads are way better. There are two layers, and the layers are different, one side is made to catch larger particles, and the other one is made to captures finer particles. You want the tighter weaved section on the bottom if not it will clog quickly and defeat the purpose of the pads. The pads last longer, during the standard period which it would require me to replace the pad, these pads are not even halfway utilized. My unfiltered water comes in from one side on my Nano tank and then runs over the pads. So now instead of replacing the pad once a week, my process is replacing the pad, then next week rotate the pad and then the following week replace the filter pad. I could even go longer than a week between the process how when I replace the filter pad, there is still a large section in the center that is clean. I have been using the pads now for about a month, I could not imagine a month ago claiming that I suggested a filter pad for anyone in the aquarium hobby how I felt like they all worked the same, but these filter pads are great, and I would highly recommend them. While I gave the five starts for easy to clean, I do not clean these pads. They are cheap enough that I can toss them when they are done. I mostly gave them five stars on this one because I was just amazed at how good the pads work.

    UPDATE: I’m still using this product and you can’t beat it. Best value for the money. Can’t help posting pictures of the Plecos Ive been using this filter pad for a year now and couldnt be happier. This filter pad is being used in the sump for my 220 gallon African Cichlid show tank thats running a Sicce Syncra 5.0 pump 1321 GPH. To answer the question Ive seen several times now, Yes this filter pad plugs up faster when you first start using it or if you over feed. Thats because its a dual density filter pad and its grabbing all the extra crap your other filter was missing. No, I dont work for this company and I really dont care if you buy this filter or not. If your on the fence its a great product and works well. Ive uploaded a picture to give you an idea of how clean my water is.

    I have 2 tanks. A 10 gallon that Ive had since the 70s (it is just fine; a few betas that live happy and healthy with a 20 gallon Aqueon filter) and a 40 gallon breeder tank I have for 5 big goldfish. Goldfish are pigs, and dirty. I was going through Aqueon 30 gallon filters like crazy. I have 2 hanging in this tank. I was even washing them off weekly and refilling them with charcoal and ammonia absorb every other week. It got to the point that I couldnt get the water clear anymore and I just didnt have the extra funds anymore to keep purchasing the boxes of filters I needed. I just got this roll last week. I put it in the filters Thursday evening and when I got up Friday morning, my water was crystal clear! I did refill the old, ratty, thin, falling apart filters with charcoal and ammonia absorb (kept the worn out ones for spares when doing water changes). Its been 4 days and no clouding in the pigfish tank yet. I just fed them an hour ago and the water is back to normal clear already. I dont care what anyone says, you feed the fish flakes and the water gets a tad cloudy. This is now my filter fluff. Mind you, I did try that blue and white filter stuff I got at the local fish store for a month. Nada, zilch, nugga. I now use that for cleaning the walls of the tank. One more thing. When I do my water changes, I water my indoor plants. I’ve had mega basil, oregano, parsley, mint and thyme all winter long (pizza and mojitos). The aquarium water also does wonders for all my other flowers, plants and trees. Don’t waste the aquaponics water!

    I cut out sizes for my caddy in my Nuvo 60 gal. Got around 8 or 10 out of one sheet. Absorbs very well catching the bigger particles on the more open rougher side than straining through the finer side of the pad. What is nice is that you can easily wash the pad and reuse. Washes out easily under a kitchen faucet. I try to change out pads daily. I am set for a long time with this purchase.
