If do like that, the water quantity in and out lesser or not? Thank you for info

flowrate will be lower...you can use black sponge , cut a hole in the middle. attach it to the intake pipe. im using nirox sponge only...rm1.60

I go see my lfs got sell or not, black sponge and fishman wool, the black sponge confim better?

black sponge better, IME. looks better.

something like this...

Actually I am using this type of material to cover my filter inlet. They come in a big rectangle piece (for filters) and is called "Filter wool" in their packaging. I cut it to the size where it fits my filter inlet, made an incision the middle and slowly push my filter inlet in the opening until all covered. Then I use the fishing line to secure the sponge to the inlet.

I went LFS find the sponge, but cannot find. Got one that is like equipment, not the sponge only but 8rm+. Tomorrow visit other LFS see got or not.

you can buy those sponge filter spare parts, then modify abit , maybe by making the hole bigger or making the outer diameter a bit smaller if they are too big.
last time saw at the petshop nearby kelana lrt...the one bro arrow promote saying they have a mass clearance sale

Try Pet Family, Taman Megah. Look for filter wool. Located near where they sell the rocks.

Or you can buy this type of sponge filter , remove the sponge to use with your Hang on Filter as what i did last time, one of my tank
with eheim hob still using one.


my hob with the sponge at intake.

sharing my CBS baby, they always hiding, now only got the chances.
Transferring/acclimating some fire red to dedicated tank as well.. phew really got lot of them, need to do few times.

the black/chocolate color, is that malaya shrimp?

It suppose to be Four season shrimp from sulawesi , but it do look like malayan shrimp but not as big.
some label it as Six Banded Black Bee Shrimp, still observing it. Maybe it is indeed Malayan shrimps,
in both case i still happy.
