Product Information

Full details

The Juwel BioPlus Fine Filter Sponge - M is an essential biological filtration medium designed for aquarium owners using Juwel Bioflow filter systems. Its primary benefit is providing a massive, chemical-free surface area for beneficial bacteria to thrive, ensuring clear and healthy water. Note that while highly effective for biological filtration, it requires regular maintenance or replacement every 3 to 6 months to prevent clogging and sustain peak performance.

FAQs

Can I use this in both saltwater and freshwater tanks?

Yes, the Juwel BioPlus Fine sponge is fully compatible with both freshwater and saltwater aquarium environments.

How often should I replace the sponge?

For optimal filtration performance, it is recommended to replace the sponge every 3 to 6 months.

Does this sponge contain any chemicals?

No, the sponge is produced without the use of chemicals to ensure no residue enters your aquarium water.

Can I wash the sponge under the tap?

No, you should never wash filter sponges under tap water. The chlorine in tap water will kill the beneficial bacteria living in the sponge.

Will this fit all Juwel filters?

This is the M-size sponge. Please verify your filter system size, as it is designed for compatible Bioflow systems in models like the Rio 125, 180, 240, and Lido 120/200.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water flow through the filter

The sponge is likely saturated with debris. Gently rinse it in a bucket of tank water to clear blockages.

Poor water quality or ammonia spikes

The bacterial colony may have been compromised. Avoid using tap water for cleaning and consider if the sponge needs replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Promotes healthy biological balance
  • Chemical-free manufacturing
  • Optimized for even water flow
  • Compatible with a wide range of Juwel tanks

Cons

  • Requires regular 3-6 month maintenance
  • Not a mechanical pre-filter for heavy debris
  • Size specific to M-sized filter housings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply slide the M-sized sponge into the designated slot within your Bioflow filter basket. It is compatible with many Juwel models, including the Primo 110, Rio 125, Rio 180, Rio 240, Trigon 190, Vision 180, Lido 120, and Lido 200. For care, rinse the sponge during routine aquarium maintenance using only water removed from the tank; never use tap water, as the chlorine will destroy the beneficial bacteria colonies. Replace the sponge entirely every 3 to 6 months to maintain optimal water flow and filtration capacity.
