Jackson Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 My fluval 30 I think is biting the dust . I have a sponge filter in the tank as well . So I see the ACO is big on sponges and I have one . But should I just replace the hob with a sponge, and keep the sponge I have in now as well . The fluval isn't that old to be breaking down , but isn't keeping the flow rate .I messed with it this morning while doing a water change . It's a 10g tank .

There was no debris in the basket or housing best I could see . How more do you clean it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0walana Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 rinse out your sponges, they get clogged with gunk. also make sure the impeller isn't gunked up as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
