Penn-Plax CFU29 First Impressions

Works well.

Work perfect on my shrimp tank to keep them out of the filter. The filters fit fine and I was happy to see that some carbon packs were included. But a small simple rubber band fixed the issue quickly. I use two layers of floss before the water goes to and through my chemical media. I have been using an Aquaclear 50 on a 20g long planted tank. Right now I am letting the filter work it's magic. You can cap off the ones you don't want to use.

Penn-Plax CFU29 Final Thoughts

5 gallon enchant tank.

It comes with the filter bag, bag frame, and charcoal media all separate. This filter system doesn't come with everything to you need. I have found you really have to scrub the outside to get everything cleaned out. I had to rinse the sponges after about 2. But a small simple rubber band fixed the issue quickly. My pad collected yellow cloudy color also all waste. Fun to modify your filter and clean tank as well.
