POLYBIO Poly Filter PAD 4 X 8

After having 3 bags of purigen break in filter I went back to using poly filter and get the same results of clear, cleaner water with no danger of microbeads polluting my tanks! Well made!

I tried EVERYTHING to solve my brown algae problem. Nothing worked. Every time I cleaned my 50 gallon tank, the brown algae came back. UNTIL, I found this product. It cured my brown algae problem almost instantly. Easy to use. No extra reactors or stuff like that. So easy, I just dropped it into my Tidal 75 filter after a good tank cleaning and I have never had brown algae since. It is a permanent part of my filter media.

Yes, all the previous positive reviews are totally correct...within reason! With this dynamite mechanical/chemical filter youll elevate your murky aquarium water to a pristine and super transparent state....for an astronomical fee. I would absolutely not recommend Poly-Filter for hobbyists with chronic multi-tank syndrome. I currently own 4 aquariums and will probably rarely if ever purchase this amazing product again due to the exorbitant cost per tank. Another problem with Poly-Filter is its lack of longevity. I inserted this in my Penguin 150 Biowheel for my 20XH tank with only 9 fish and 2 nerite snails on a Wednesday evening; and by the following Monday morning, it was utterly exhausted...thats just ridiculously swift. In all the time Ive used various mech filter pads, Ive never had to discard them in LESS THAN A WEEK! Keep in mind this setup is only 2 months new, with well established bio filtration and not even overstocked. My former mech filter was finally exhausted and my tank was surviving only on bio filtration for almost a week, hence my current experiment with Poly-Filter. Yes this is absolutely a WONDER FILTER/CURE; but at its rate of exhaustion, Id be out $45 a month on this filter alone and thats just for 1 tank....NO THANKS. For the ongoing future, Ill somewhat ignore Poly-Filter and resume using Value Pack - Poly Filter Floss for $9 every 3+ months. I plan on eventually doubling the amount of aquariums I own thus increasing my need for the ultimate bang for buck products.

I have a little 5 gallon tank and this filter really pulls out some gunk and helps keep the aquarium cleared and cleaner. It also last quite a long time. I will keep buying and using it.

Love this filters everything.

Good quality, works well.

My tank looked cleaner and my fish seemed happier

Product is as expected.

I had someone at a LFS who advised using these pads to remove all types of chemicals or medication after dosing is over. He called it the water change pads. I still do my water changes but these pads are great for removing anything else that remains in your tank. Just remember not to leave them in and remove them after they turn that dark dirty color.

Love this stuff. It does what it says it does. Just wish it wasn’t so expensive.
