A basic aquarium pump has may uses when it comes to “Do it Yourself” and the aquarium hobby.
This is yet another use for one! A cheap and simple sponge filter. In my opinion, every fish tank should have one.
As mentioned in the video, you would have an already cycled filter for almost any situation. Make yours today for your fish tank, and it could possibly save you some real problems in the future!
To clean this filter, it is best to do so during a water change. Drain old tank water into a bucket, and rinse/squeeze the filter into it. When depends on how much you feed and how stocked the tank is. usually once a week is best.
