I had been looking for filter floss for my 5 gallon aquarium for a couple months. My local stores didn't have any available. I didn't realize how large a roll this is when I added it to my cart. But it wasn't cost prohibitive and won't go bad and now I don't have to worry about running out any time soon. It comes in a plastic bag that is made from a reasonably thick mil plastic so it won't tear easily and will keep the floss free from dust and debris in storage in my basement. I like that - because of the dimensions - it enabled me to cut a longer piece than I previously had in my filtration. I'm happy with the quality of the floss too. The piece I had before was more delicate and came apart easily when I rinsed it. This floss is a bit more dense and holds its shape when being removed from the compartment and when being rinsed. It does a good job catching small particles and debris. The water clarity has improved since I added this to my filtration set up. Read more

This filter floss works great at keeping my fish water crystal clear. So you can see by the picture I showed you what it looks like before and what it looks like after. It just collects everything. It's thick but it's not tight woven It's kind of like maybe something that would be in a soft cheap pillow. It really really collects a lot of stuff and once it turns brown I swap it out. On the bottom I put a thick Koi pond filter pad for support because it's heavy and stays strong on the very bottom. Then I'll put some classic filter that's blue and white or pink and white. Then I'll put a 50 micron polishing pad. Then on all that filter media I put about 4 inches of the filter floss. The filter floss pretty much catches All the gunk and fine particles so by the time it gets to the polishing pad there really isn't much left. So everything underneath the polishing pad stays completely clean and I don't have to change that out hardly ever. I constantly change out this filter floss because it really catches everything. And my micron pad actually lasts a lot longer using this. I tried using it in one of the back filters on a 75 gallon tank and it didn't seem to hold up very well because it was just way too soft so it'd be just like one big blobby mush of filter and dirt because like I said it's kind of like a cheap pillowcase stuff inside. This does not keep its shape. But that's a benefit for me because that's exactly what I want. I want something to scoop up all the goop and kind of flow in the filter. I always keep lots of this on hand. I have three 10,000 gallon Oase filters. Sometimes I just can't clean them all at the same time so if I notice one is collecting anything on the top I'll stick some of this filter floss in there and it will collect anything that's coming up. So I use this for all kinds of different situations. But this is the one that I keep purchasing over and over and over again. I do recommend it for external filters. I do not recommend it for hang on the back of your tank filters. It doesn't work and then when you go and pull it out all it does is let the goop just falls right back in and it's all over in your tank. One other thing is I feed my baby koi and my young fish flakes and the little particles that float all over the place that they don't get this filter media will clean all of that up. Plus You can pull it apart without using scissors. So you can actually get the piece you want without having to cut it of course it's not perfectly square around but that doesn't really matter.

Good value and really supplements filter media well to maintain clear water. Read more

I gave up commercial filter pads with the charcoal. Started to use Bio Sponges and Ceramic rings for my filtration. This has worked wonders. To supplement, I wrap this filter floss around my bio sponge. It works wonders. My water is crystal clear. Those folks nagging about the size being wrong, don't let that detract you from getting this floss. It is amazing value. You get so much you it will last you quite a bit. It's also nice and thick but still effective at collecting particles. I just think some people like to nit pick. I saw that huge bundle of floss (which I wasn't expecting) and was happy. Who takes a ruler out to measure this stuff??? Buy it, your fish will thank you and you'll enjoy watching them through a nice clear aquarium! Read more

Excellent filter for fish tank. I use it to replace the bio-bag with activated carbon which makes the water always cloudy. For a 20 gallon fish tank, a cut-out piece makes the water clear after 1 day and it can last for 7 days. There are about 70 pieces cut out from the roll, so it can last for a year. Read more
