Penn-Plax CCF4BMK First Impressions

I would recommend these.

It was easy to assemble and very effective! Fish that are constantly swimming hard will tire and die from stress. Much better than the cartridges you get when you buy the filters. I rinsed and reuse same pad again 3 times and trashed later. Don't restrict air-flow around them as they do get quite warm. Keep your stocking of creatures low. So stock your tanks a few fish at a time.

Penn-Plax CCF4BMK Final Thoughts

Highly recommend.

I'm using this pad to HOB filters AC70 bottom and top of it’s sponge. I double the size and fold them and put the bagged carbon between the layers. My tank is 12x36 so I utilized 3 of the panels. These work great as pre filter sponge on my quiet flow 10. You can put power heads on the riser tubes to increase the flow through the filter. I use two layers of floss before the water goes to and through my chemical media. Make sure to select the Medium size from Tetra.
