Always great and also a secret to high end filtering!

I had tried everything to clear up my tank. This is the only thing that worked! I am so happy with this purchase and will be buying again.

I use these in my modified Fluval Flex 9-gallon tank, and they’ve been fantastic. When I first set up my tank, the water was a bit cloudy. Being a bit of a perfectionist, I wanted to get it perfectly clear. After adding these pads to my setup (with a sponge filter as the first stage), the water became and stayed crystal clear.I replace the pads every month or two, and they keep the water looking great. If you’re looking for a way to keep your tank water clear and pristine, these pads are definitely worth trying.

The Fluval 470 takes a lot of filters. You can rinse some of them out and re use them once or twice to save money, but either way the filters are an expense that most people didn't see coming for their aquarium. I tried buying generic foam aquarium pads and cutting them to fit in place of the polishing pads, but you can tell the difference between the generic aquarium pads and the polishing pad in the clarity of the water. I've concluded its worth it to buy these special and replace them each time I clean the tank.

Items arrived promptly. Exactly as described. Exactly fit. Great durability. I would recommend this product.

I have a Fluval 304 filter that I've been using with a 50 gallon freshwater tank for several years. The 304 has 4 filtration stages, the first being a coarse foam. The remaining 3 stages can be filled with products that work best for the aquarist's needs. In my case, I use charcoal, an ammonia remover, the Biomax Bio Rings, and these water polishing pads (in order from bottom to top.) Since the trays for each stage is divided, it's possible to fit both the charcoal and the ammonia remover in the first tray. I've been using this filter in this configuration for several years, and it's worked perfectly for my needs.Some may say that using standard aquarium floss or knock-off polishing pads are equivalent to those produced by Fluval, but I've not had that experience. These are sized and shaped specifically to fit in the filter, and water flowing through the unit does not push them to the side or bypass the floss. The Fluval products are definitely more expensive, but in my case, the fact that they work well consistently makes it worthwhile to spend a little extra.

Works as intended, good price
