Why Replace Filter Sponges?
Filter sponges collect debris and waste over time. As they become clogged, water flow can slow down and filtration performance may decline. Replacing worn or dirty sponges helps keep your filter running properly and supports clearer aquarium water.
Because sponge media can also hold beneficial bacteria, it is best to clean and replace sponges carefully. Avoid replacing every piece of established biological media at the same time when possible.
How to Use
Install the replacement sponge into your compatible Sicce Aqua Filtra 10 or Aqua Filtra 20 filter according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure the sponge is seated correctly so water can flow through it properly.
Rinse sponges gently in old aquarium water during maintenance to remove debris while helping preserve beneficial bacteria. Replace sponges when they become worn, torn, misshapen, or difficult to rinse clean.

Maintenance Tips
Rinse sponges every 2–4 weeks in old aquarium water, or whenever water flow begins to slow. Maintenance frequency depends on stocking level, feeding, plant debris, and overall aquarium bioload.
Replace sponges every 2–3 months, or as needed, depending on wear and filter performance. Do not use soap, detergents, or harsh cleaners on aquarium filter media.
