There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I don't regret my purchase....
The only drawback, which didn't warrant losing any 'stars', is that it doesn't work so well on my Brita filter. Oh well. No product is perfect!
I've bought several boxes of these and I'll continue to. I'd recommend.
Instead, make a slit in the filter media, remove the carbon, and then rinse off the built-up gunk with NON-CHLORINATED water every few weeks (you can use the water you siphon out of your fish tank during water changes). You can use these filters until the actual filter media starts to wear thin and break down. Not only will you have a healthier aquarium, but you'll spend less on replacement filters!
Remember to change your filter every 3 weeks and not to perform and other maintenance for at least 3-5 days to avoid disturbing the biological chemistry. Here is my schedule for the filter swap:
Week 1 - 10% water change.
Week 2 - 25% water change (suctioning debris from gravel).
Week 3 - change out the filter (remove just enough aquarium water to rinse the filter).
Week 4 - restart cycle at Week 1 (Week 4 = Week 1).
Note: I use Seachem Prime to treat new water for the water changes.
