Juwel bioPlus Course Filter Sponge is a coarse-pore filter medium for mechanical and biological filtration in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Designed for use as part of the JUWEL filter system, it is suited to aquarium keepers who need dependable water flow through a high-surface-area sponge medium.
