Aqua-Flo 12" Pond & Aquarium Filter Media, 72" (6 Feet) Long x 1" Thick (Green/White)

Great price for the medium filter you may need for your Koi pond or aquarium filter. It does the job it was promised and is a great size for most filters. It’s easy to make it fit. And cleans very well.

Does the job and works great.

Worked well

I've been using this product for my 75 gallon tank for years and won't use anything else, it's perfect. I wrap it around my filter's intake wand, secure it with two rubber bands and I'm good until the next water cycling. It catches all the gunk that would normally be filtered through my Fluval FX2. It works so well that when I opened up my Fluval to clean it there was virtually no gunk in there, and this was after a full year of not opening the Fluval reservoir tank. To keep your fish happy and thriving in clean water this filter material is a must.

So my cats are experts at clogging those tiny water fountains people normally buy. I had enough of taking apart & fixing them.So I decided to make my own & I am so glad I did.Begale 16 Quart Rectangular Plastic Wash Basins, 4-Pack Dish Pan, Gray:The base units, I kept 2 stacked within each other for strength to make a fountain for the cats & a second for the dogsTetra Whisper Internal Filter 10 To 20 Gallons, For aquariums, In-Tank Filtration:My powerhouse of a filter that offers a waterfall, circulating well, & raised well all in one.

I leave the charcoal for 2 months & or until it gets dirty, just changing the added filter belowAqua-Flo 12" Pond & Aquarium Filter Media, 72" (6 Feet) Long x 1" Thick (Green/White):I cut these so that they fold over in a 'J' fashion around the above filters, they clip along the top against the carbon's filter sack. I put the lined side against the back of the filter with the unlined side against the plastic post filter that comes w/ the tetra internal filter. I discard these every 2-4 weeks, leaving the charcoal to work its magic longer.The end result is a nice & big 3+ gallon pet fountain w/ a gently circulating deep well, a wide waterfall, & a small turbulent upper well for the pets to chose from. (each of my cats have their own favorite spot, dogs don't really care) I just have to use a scrub sponge to loosen up any.... pet slime... every couple months & change the filter when needed.

Worked great! Lasted over a year when cut to fit filter and cleaned to re-use.

My go-to filter Media! It arrived on time and the price was decent.

I will start with the shipping. Over three weeks, Indiana to Idaho. To be fair to the seller, that isn't his fault, I just want people to know that I waited for weeks. It seemed to drop off the face of the earth. Tracking said it sat 8 days in/near Chicago, but that doesn't account for all the other times it just...disappeared. Other things ordered at same time came in 4-5 days, so this was an anomaly, sure. I wrote to finally just ask for a refund (even AMazon said it looked like my parcel was missing) and...well, I got 'schooled' on "the new post office policies" and it sounded more like a rant than anything empathetic for a customer whose money you have for a product they've not received. And that IS on the seller. What he said is probably right (that the new post office general has decreed that parcels can just sit in distribution centers and wait, while they make sure letters get delivered on time) but it was more a rant about that, and less about customer satisfaction in SPITE of the post office's admittedly crappy service on this one. So I took a star for that.The other star I deducted for is that this is NO WAY an inch thick. Be prepared for the parcel to be FAR smaller than you anticipate. It's possibly a half-inch thick, then rolled snugly together (hence the smaller package). It arrives in really good shape, it looks like really nice stuff, and I think it will do a GREAT job. But I think the advertising is misleading. Perhaps if I put a piece in the dryer to fluff, it'd bulk up to 1" but I doubt it.I am pretty happy with this, as I do feel it'll do what I need, but I wanted people to be aware of the ACTUAL thickness and that shipping - if it's crazylong like mine was - will earn you a less than understanding reply.
