Sorry about that, I never tried any of yours yet.

I've always used the Hydro sponge filters.

Oh...and I have one (1) of the wayne ng ones. VERY similar to the hydro's

Buy the Hydro-Pro Sponge filters!

If i get the hydro-pro should i get the one for up to 40 gallons even though it will be used in a 20 gallon tank?? I just figure the larger it is the better the cleaning power.

they are kind of bulky at that size and take up good space in a 20 gallon. either way you should still clean them often to avoid bad bacterial problems. I would go with a smaller one

I received one from Dan from my shipment 3 months ago. Works good as advertised. I like how the internal design works, no need for airstone. However, it is a good a idea to take it apart once in a while to clean the internal parts.

Durability? I've only had it for 3 months and it is working really well. Time will tell.

Stackability might be an issue? Dan can answer this one.

Plus! The box is really fancy. I guess i'm a sucker for Wayne's Fish!

David's Foam filter looks similar to Dan's. However, I can't say much because i have not tried it yet!

HOwever, David sells an overhead Wet/Dry filter that works really well.

Marte, Yes these can be easily stacked and used in your tanks. Next order I will send you another one..

Ray,

Although similar I believe they are superior to the Hydro Sponges. Here are the differences:

• Internal fittings that have a rigid tube that pulls water from bottom of filter as compared to the Hydro that pulls from the top unless you use an air-stone
• The plastic is softer so it will not crack like the Hydro Sponges
• Snap design prevents the fittings from coming apart like the Hydro Sponges
• Sponge is denser allowing for more nitrifying bacteria

Who is it that sells the overhead wet dry filter???? thanks.

do the waynes filters only come in one size(4x4.5)? if so is it ok for a 20 gallon high?

[Elite Aquaria]

Yes only one size...I use one in each of my 20h breeder tanks and 2 in my 75 gallon tanks.

Looks like the Wayne is the same as mine. Only with his name on them.
