Fluval Genuine 307/407 Canister Filter Media Quick Clear Polishing Pads

This was advertised with slightly damaged packaging and I am glad I bought it because the pads are in perfect condition. These pads work really well.

good product

Great product and price fast delivery

I've always used these polishing pads in my 305 filter along with Opti-Carb, carbon, biomax and other media, and the job they do is amazing. As well as the 305 external, I also have a U4 internal filter and still the amount of muck these pick out as a result of my two fantails is incredible. It is like an easy way to pick up/throw away pure mud when it's time to change them. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars is I find when they are dirty/ready for changing they can substantially reduce the flow of the filter almost to nothing; in the beginning I almost lost my boys to this because I couldn't see the reduced water flow in the tank and so thought my filter was functioning normally. But basically it's then like switching your filter off and the water quality rapidly deterioriates. I solved that issue by taking some good advice and putting a plant into the flow that moves about, so I can now see any impact. But even with this issue, I wouldn't take them out and be without them - whilst it makes you pay attention to your filter regularly, for goldies that's no bad thing. And I always look at the mud trapped in them and think without them, all that would be in the tank with my poor boys. My advice is these are a means of keeping beautiful sparkling water for conscientious fish keepers who properly maintain their filters/water quality. But if you're buying them because you're lazy with your water and filter care and think this would be a good way to buy you further time between changes I'd advise against them. If you're not good on your tank/filter maintenance you'll be more likely to miss the reduced filter flow, which could rapidly be fatal to your fish. Personally, I couldn't be without them (and I think my boys would say the same thing!)

Fluval filter polishing pads x 6, good for clearer water, reasonable price

Very happy

It does the job as a key part of your filter media.

Great value for money. Dose what it says

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.

Excelente material

Works as expected. Good quality from a high end brand.

Jood
