Bio Sponge Filter Foam Sponges Pad, 7.5" x 4.7" x 2.75", 2pcs

Highly compressed and took almost 2 weeks to return to stated dimension. Looks like it will work great as a replacement filter for a pump that I can no longer find replacement for.

I love these. I bought them to set my aquarium air pumps on to quiet the vibration. Worked great

It arrived flat, in a vacuum-locked package, very surprising! It expanded perfectly in a couple of days just by sitting on my counter. I'm using it around the pump in my outdoor water fountain, to keep the bigger leaves and such away from the pump. I bought the 7.5" x 4.7" x 2.75" and that is exactly what I received. I cut it to fit my pump with an x-acto knife and was easy enough to cut through the thickness. I will be ordering another one as I cut this one incorrectly (I should've measured twice and cut once), but it is exactly what I needed. I installed a simple $10 float and water supply hose to the fountain, so that I don't have to keep refilling it. I put the extra piece around the float to help keep debris away from it.

This filter foam sponge is a great addition to any fish tank. It does an excellent job of trapping debris and maintaining water clarity. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it can be a bit difficult to clean. The foam is quite delicate, and I found that I had to be careful not to damage it when rinsing it out. But overall, it's a great product that I would recommend to any fish tank owner looking to improve their filtration system.

Nice value and more than enough for my needs. Can cut to size needed and filters the water great. Should last a long time. I had more than enough for extra filtration. Water is so clear that I haven't even used the charcoal filter the my pump came with. All plants and fish are doing well and rarely change water

Bought this to use to fabricate a new foam air filter for my Devilbiss 6.5 HP air compressor. Cut to size and installed just fine with sharp box cutter. Same exact material as the old filter which was beginning to break down and decompose into pieces... Works great... Not what it was intended for but its the same stuff and works just fine. I recommend...

This is a value rich alternative to prepackaged OEM replacements. The only negative is that you have to cut to size using scissors. This material is so thick that it’s difficult to snip with great accuracy.

Work as needed. Easy to cut/trim. My return was not properly counted and I was charged for one that I sent back.

The Hipanda Filter Foam Sponges are a true game-changer for the discerning aquarist. This Bio Sponge Filter Media Pad is not merely a product; it's a guardian of aquatic equilibrium. Crafted from robust, high-quality foam, these sponges stand as vigilant protectors in the face of the relentless debris of the underwater world.

Upon introducing the Hipanda sponges into my aquarium's ecosystem, the transformation was profound. The water, once clouded with the detritus of aquatic life, became a pane of sheer glass, revealing the vibrant vivacity of my underwater utopia. So effective and enduring are these sponges that a single pack promises a biennial odyssey of filtration excellence. The sheer volume and the customizable nature of these foam sponges mean that one purchase equates to two years of serene, unclouded waters. These are not just sponges; they are the silent sentinels of your aquarium, the unsung heroes of your aquatic story.

I needed replacement filters for my Waterbox 35.2 AIO reef aquarium. Waterbox customer service is useless and couldn't point me to their replacements so I came across these. A bit to long but width and height is a perfect fit, actually I get 2 filters from one foam so bonus! This pack yields 4 filters when cut to size! Showed up like a letter so compressed but opened it up and they slowly expanded. An hour of leaving them be is all that was needed for them to expand. DO NOT WET AND SQUEEZE WATER OUT AND OUT IN CLOSE DRYER! The dryer will have chemicals from softener sheets and will pollute the aquarium. Just give them a bit of time and they will expand to form. Some say they are not good if expecting to replace your filters straight away. Well if you been waiting for new filters then what's one more day? Honestly these are great and will be buying more.

This is open cell filter foam and is intended to catch and trap larger particles. That’s not what I used it for. This particular foam doesn’t actually trap and hold water like a sponge. Water more or less goes right through it. So it was a perfect replacement for some foam standoffs on a North Face expedition tent I have that used exactly the same foam between the inner and outer tents.

To start off, I got these to make into microphone pop filters, so I can't speak to their effectiveness as an aquarium filter. That said, these things work great for my intended use. They come flat-packed, so once you get them out of the packaging just run them under warm water while wringing them around. In about 15-20 seconds they just inflate to full size. They're soaked now, of course, so let them dry thoroughly if you don't want tap water in them. For a microphone pop filter, they're very easy to shape using a sharp razor knife, and are extremely effective at reducing plosives. For my use case I do recommend.

Works great in my filter. Keeps the water clean.
