Hygger Aquarium Cylindrical Sponge Filter (Small, Medium, Large) 🫧🔵
High‑efficiency biological & mechanical filtration for freshwater and marine aquariums
The Hygger Cylindrical Sponge Filter line is a versatile, air‑driven filtration system designed for crystal‑clear water, strong biological filtration, and gentle flow. These filters are ideal for betta tanks, shrimp tanks, fry grow‑outs, quarantine tanks, and community aquariums. The cylindrical design increases surface area, improving both bacteria colonization and mechanical debris capture.
All sizes operate using a standard aquarium air pump (not included).
Key Features
🫧 Dual‑stage filtration: mechanical sponge + biological media chamber
🔇 Ultra‑quiet operation (air‑driven, no motor)
🦐 Safe for shrimp, fry, and delicate fish
🧱 Weighted base for stability
🔧 Easy to clean and maintain
🌊 Adjustable airflow and direction
🪨 Includes ceramic bio‑media in the center chamber
Available Sizes
Small
Recommended Tank Size: 5–15 gallons
Dimensions: ~2.5–3 in diameter, ~5–6 in tall
Airflow Needs: Low
Best For: Bettas, nano shrimp tanks, fry tanks
Medium
Recommended Tank Size: 10–30 gallons
Dimensions: ~3–3.5 in diameter, ~6–7 in tall
Airflow Needs: Moderate
Best For: Community tanks, breeding setups, planted tanks
Large
Recommended Tank Size: 20–55 gallons
Dimensions: ~3.5–4 in diameter, ~7–8 in tall
Airflow Needs: Moderate–high
Best For: Heavily stocked tanks, grow‑outs, quarantine systems
How It Works
Air pump pushes bubbles through the uplift tube
Rising bubbles pull water through the sponge
Sponge traps debris (mechanical filtration)
Water passes through ceramic media (biological filtration)
Clean, oxygen‑rich water returns to the tank
Use Cases
Shrimp and fry tanks needing gentle flow
Backup filtration during power outages (with battery air pump)
Hospital or quarantine tanks
Breeding setups
Supplemental filtration for larger tanks
