smm333 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I bought this easy clean 3 gallon aquarium because I loved the look of it. I wanted a nice nano tank for least killifish. I have more plants on the way, and it is currently just cycling with a sponge filter from one of my other tanks in its built in filter area on the side. I want the least killi to breed, and the built in filter has slits for intake. Typically I put sponge over my HOB intakes. Anyone have any ideas on what I could use to cover this on the side?

Flumpweesel Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Just cut a piece of foam to size (ppi 20 or30 ish) cut it sightly to wide and wedge it over the intake it will act the same and the pre-intake sponges. Cut a couple though so you can keep it covered even when you are rinsing the sponge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 You can usually fit sponge behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnebuns Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I use ladies nylons. They work really well for internal filters! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble I'm having is that the whole end is built in as a filter. I can remove the media through the top, but the filter box is a part of the tank. There's no way to wrap something around the intake. I could probably cut something to the size of the tank and put the bottom under the rocks, but I'm not sure how to keep the rest secured.
