Guest oracleoca February 28, 2006 Share February 28, 2006 Hi, I am looking to replace the sponges (Foam filter block) in my sump. They measure 1.5" x 5.5" x 13" and they appear medium coarse in texture and are whitish in color. Where can I but these around here? I bought the originals from Life Reef when I purchased my LifeReef compact sump system about a year ago. Thanks Janie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedalpower March 1, 2006 Share March 1, 2006 The only place I've been able to find them is Lifereef. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikS March 1, 2006 Share March 1, 2006 Quite a few options. First check @ the local PetCo/PetSmart - the Aquaclear blocks should be close to that size (the 70's are 5-1/4" x 3-1/2" x 2"). You can order these & other filterblocks online. Also, MarineScene used to carry filter blocks - check in the "ask a vendor forum" (maybe others do). You can easily make up the length difference by putting 2 together. Size isn't relevant - simple to custom make. Take said block, rinse with water, and shove in the freezer for a couple of hours. Remove - when frozen you can easily cut/shape them to any size needed (they stay rigid). A serrrated knife works well, an electric knife is superb.
