HOB Question
I have HOB’s on all my planted tanks. Most are Whisper HOB’s (or whatever they are called now), and I also have some Marineland Penguin’s. Biowheels only on half of them.
The Whisper’s filter cartridge comes with the carbon that I always remove (thanks Lenny!). Can I just buy some foam cartridges (say for an AquaClear HOB), cut them to fit (skinny so that I can fit two in instead of one), and use that in the HOB’s? I like my AquaClear because of the foam sponge and never really replacing it after probably five or so years of use and am hoping to convert my other HOB’s to something like that.
Is this workable? Most of my HOB’s have two filter compartments but some only have one so I would have to take an established sponge from one of the others so that it is seeded to put into the single compartment HOB’s.
