Description

• The Internal Sponge Filter XY-2835 is a popular aquarium filtration device designed for small to medium-sized tanks. Here’s a detailed description of its features and functions:
  

  Key Features:

  1. Sponge Filtration – Uses a porous sponge to trap debris, waste, and harmful particles while promoting beneficial bacterial growth for biological filtration.
  2. Dual-Function Filtration – Provides mechanical (trapping debris) and biological (hosting nitrifying bacteria) filtration.
  3. Air-Powered Operation – Works with an air pump (not included), creating bubbles that draw water through the sponge, ensuring efficient filtration.
  4. Compact & Submersible Design – Ideal for small tanks (5-20 gallons), breeding tanks, shrimp tanks, or hospital aquariums.
  5. Adjustable Flow – Some models feature a flow regulator to control filtration intensity.
  6. Quiet Operation – No motor noise, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments.
  7. Easy Maintenance – The sponge can be rinsed in tank water (to preserve beneficial bacteria) and reused.
