AC prefilter sponges

[Jennie]

Where to buy them that fit WELL on the AC filters. I've picked up several and either the opening is too small or too big?

i use a mag drive sponge prefilter, the smaller one not the massive ones. they fit perfectly on my ac 70/110. the fluval edge sponge prefilter will fit perfectly on the small aquaclear.

Jennie,
I just take a replacement aquaclear 110 sponge...cut in half and use a scissors to make the hole for the intake pipe... takes 5 minutes.

I was using the Fluval 2 foam sleeve insert for my AC 110 or Filter Max 2 Pre filters from Kenfish.com


or the Fluval Edge Pre filter sponge and ebay has some yellow color ones too.
