Fluval A228A1 First Impressions

Easy install.

Plenty strong to support the rocks and gravel in my tank without sagging. You can cap off the ones you don't want to use. I purchased these for an aquarium at school. I will always buy these here on Amazon for the price savings. The filter material itself is good quality material too that doesn't break open. We rinse the filters 2x a day and they remain in continuous 24 hour operation. I have a Top Fin 10 power filter and these cartridges fit perfectly.

Fluval A228A1 Final Thoughts

I have 2 tanks.

Better than branded media filters cartridges. If you have a nano tank with filter these would be perfect for that setup. Any floating debri will get caught in a sponge intake on the reverse power head kit. I double the size and fold them and put the bagged carbon between the layers. These work great as pre filter sponge on my quiet flow 10. It includes 12 mesh filter bags& 12 packets of charcoal. I had to rinse the sponges after about 2.
