        It is Poly filter tied to the sponge filter.


        General maintenance comments:
        Poly-Filter turns color when removing medications.

            I see.. i thought it was some cycled biofilter material.. I guess the tbought is it will remove ammonia .

            I never quite figured out why fish shows dont use box filters with ammochips and floss.. seems these would be cheap and effective for a few days show...plus they are field exchangeable.

                  I've always wondered the same. Most US shows throw in a brand new sponge filter which does nothing. Might as well just use an airstone.
                  At my age, everything is irritating.

                    That's kind of funny. I've seen pictures and I guess I assumed that they were somehow supplying cycled sponges.
