Fiters for small tanks

[Tony Terceira <terceira at ride_ri.net>]

i have some wonderful small blue filter, they are about 3 inches round, 
three inches high, they have a white plastic center and provide a fine 
stream of bubbles with little air pressure.   One problem,  I have not seen 
them available in more than 15 years !!!

         The sponge filters of today are very efficient, and very inexpensive.

There are very small sponge filters made by AZOO and sold for a few dollars 
at thepetwharehouse, now Dr foster and smith.  they are very 
efficient................   trouble they use a heavy zinc washer,  remove 
are glue a piece of tile to hold down,  the most efficient I have seen.  I 
also us PVC Tees,  small Jehmco ..  many options available......

I Sill think dollar for dollar you can't beat the sterile containers which 
are almost 2 1/2 gallons have a wonderful locking top, drill two holes in 
the heavy top one for airline and one for feeding., theystack and cost less 
than $3.00 at Wal Mart.................  a great tank for many purposes, 
they are very durable.  Rubber made make a great 8 quart container, almost 
square  and has a great lid................   raise fry in them often.
