Juwel Poly Filter Pads

[SchottayB]

Looking at these, they are £3 for a pack of 5 on eBay.

This seller is selling a pack of 50 for £7.99, but they are not Juwel branded. They have sold loads and have no bad feedback.

Can't see them being any harm? Hard to resist with the price

This is what I was thinking? Something can't be right? Or can it? It's only Poly after all? You can buy a huge block for next to nothing, then cut it yourself?! Juwel just scammimg?

This is the question though Is it juwel or the cheaper people...they say if its too good to be true it prob is, so how can somthing that is £3 for 5 be so cheap for £50!

I use those from the same seller, no problems.

I use two at a time and rinse one/replace one every week. They're not as thick as the juwel but do exactly the same thing. I get all my filter sponges from that guy.

They won't, and if they do it's not the poly pads

I've heard alot of people buying big rolls of it and cutting it themself.
My LFS even sells it so u can cut it yourself, never priced it up though lol.

There isn't anything special about branded sponges and poly filter, you're just paying more for the brand name and a perfect fit.
