Hang On Filter

[hirowen]

Hi Guys,

I'm just curious, do you all always change the HOF filter cartridge? Or do u all DIY the filter media yourself?

Thanks

Can be washed! And I use my own filter wool on top of it

I see. How do u arrange your media? My shop only sell the filter but nvr sell cartridge. Haha. And my HOF is the small version for 1.5ft tank. The reservoir is not very huge, I afraid by putting my whole cotton wool n ceramics will cause the water to overflow.

For my case, I add those black sponge filter (looks like those black air sponge filter) at the inlet and the fill the HOF full of bio media. Careful not to obstruct the propeller.

So u don't use the cartridge actually?

I am using the same filter as you.

How big is your tank?

I managed to stuff like 2 pieces of sponge into it to act as filter media. Not efficient but it get things done.

My tank is 1.5ft. I remove the carbon cartridge and put in my own ceramic ring and thin slice of cotton wool. Haha. Lets see how the result.
