9thdragon Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hello my friend's gf saw i have a shrimp tank and wanted to start so she got herself 5.5 gallon just to start with a hang on filter. I brought her the sponge and then i realize the holes are kinda big. what should i use to cover the filter so its shrimp safe. Her birthday is coming up too imma buy her a bigger tank =D but i need to fix this filter first =( Edwardnah and Johnnydok 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadenlea Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Is it a hang on the back filter? If so Han makes nice stainless steel filter guards. http://www.hanaquatics.com/ss-filter-guard/ If you want to go for a cheap fix, you can get fluval sponge filter guards on amazon. They clog easily though. High5's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
