only £42.99 plus extras for all the chemicals etc.

As I have not seen this before I thought I'd do a post regarding it and will follow up on my progress installing it etc.
BTW it is for a 24x12x15 tank.

the whole thing is made of sponge
 
I hope it works better than their website!

So its a giant sponge filter... how is it going to be "100% maintance free"??
 
ok added to the tank
did not silicon in place as it ws a very tight fit

now comes the big test, dealing with the sludge build up, you buy a chemical to eat this and add it monthly. we shall see what happens.
 
Goodluck! It sounds somewhat of a dodgy idea to me, but ive neva seen em down here in Australia. How will u clean them. Surely the chemical wouldnt get rid of all the material build up. Keep us posted Wolf!
 
Sounds like a recipe for huge nitrate problems and eventual pH crash, i wouldnt let one of those things near one of my tanks!!!
 
I knew you wouldn't like it CFC. :p
 
looks awsome Paul :thumbs:

looks very natural to me :nod:

I take it it just sits in your tank, no air pump or anything. Hmm... I can't see it working, but we might all be suprised.
