The SUNSUN HW-3000 Canister Filter Sponge is a high-quality replacement sponge specifically designed for the SUNSUN HW-3000 external canister filter. It plays a crucial role in maintaining optimal water clarity by filtering out debris and supporting beneficial bacteria growth within your aquarium system.

• Designed to snugly fit into the filter trays of the SUNSUN HW-3000 model.
• Ensures full water contact and maximizes the sponge’s filtration efficiency.
