Alex j Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Anyone have or had an aqueon mini bow 5 gallon that took the filter out that came with it and put in an hob or sponge filter? I'm considering doing that for better filtration and was just wondering... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I had a 2.5 I got for shrimp qt. I pulled it and used a coop nano. The nano worked better and did not share plants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex j Posted March 19, 2023 Author Share Posted March 19, 2023 What about the cover for the tank did it fit over the hob? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of these small tanks. I misplaced the filter in a move so i use a coop sponge filter for it. My thought was it's a smaller tank so a HOB might create too much current if it's too strong but one for the size should be fine. I only had larger hob's that wouldn't fit well so i chose the sponge filter making it into a shrimp tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
