You can also use small pumice stones or ceramic rings.

What type of glue have you used to stick the sponge? And will it affect the fish health?

[@madebykm]

I used this - amzn.to/44vumih
It’s safe for aquarium use.

सर पानी का TDS कैसे कम करें

[@Aquaquest682]

Bhai kya white color ka woh sponge use kr skta hun jo top filter mei use hota hai.. Jo ek do bar use ke baad replace kr dia jata hai??

[@madebykm]

Haan, but use baar baar replace karna parega, lekin black sponge replace karne ki zarurat nehi hai, wash karne se clean ho jata hai aur lifetime use kar sakte ho.

You can get it from aquarium stores or pet markets. It is also available on online shopping sites (amzn.to/3Zkj7GU). You can also use ceramic rings (amzn.to/3niLHeo) as an alternative.

Can we use kitchen spong instead of this and if we dont have air pump What to do

[@madebykm]

Use an aquarium sponge, it will work best and like all the sponge filters available in the market, this filter will also need an air pump to work, there is no other option.

Bro am suffering from green hair algae.give me one solution bro??day by day green hair algae growing fast.am trying to remove all algae my own next day again it'll happens. Am using pressurized CO2.give me solution ?? How green algae gone permanently ???

[@madebykm]

Please let me know the following:
1. Tank dimensions
2. Lighting (duration and wattage / lumens)
3. CO2 Rate (bubbles/second)
4. Fertilizers (type, dosage)

[@naturepetlovers1117]

@@madebykm1. tank size 3 feet bro(90*50*50)
2.Diy 2 (30watt bulbs)
3.co2 cylinder 3 or 4 bubbles per second
4.no liq ferts.only diy root tabs

[@madebykm]

1. Reduce the overall lighting for now (use a total of 50 watts of light), 10 hours / day. CO2 must be supplied at a rate of 4-5 bps as long as the aquarium lights are on.
2. Consider adding liquid carbon to reduce hair algae.
3. Use a good quality filter according to the size of your tank and increase the water circulation.
4. Weekly change 50% of your aquarium water.
Do these and see if the condition improves.
