Product Information

Full details

The Ciano Water Foam Large is an essential replacement filter media for aquarium hobbyists using Ciano CFBIO150 or CFBIO250 filter systems. Designed to effectively trap suspended debris and organic waste, this high-quality 30PPI foam sponge ensures clear water while acting as a foundational base for beneficial bacteria. While it provides excellent mechanical and biological filtration, it is a consumable component that requires regular replacement to maintain optimal aquarium water quality.

FAQs

How often should I replace the Ciano Water Foam?

For optimal results, the foam should be replaced every 90 days.

Can I wash the foam in tap water?

No, you should only rinse the foam in used aquarium water to protect the beneficial bacteria colonies living on the sponge.

What is the PPI of this foam?

This foam has a density of 30PPI (pores per inch).

Will this fit a non-Ciano filter?

No, this product is specifically designed for the internal dimensions of Ciano CFBIO150 and CFBIO250 filters.

Does this foam provide biological filtration?

Yes, its structure serves as an excellent base for beneficial bacteria that help maintain your aquarium's nitrogen cycle.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water flow through the filter

The foam may be saturated with organic matter. Remove and gently rinse in old aquarium water, or replace if it has been in use for 90 days.

Water appears cloudy despite using new foam

Check that the foam is seated correctly in the filter housing to ensure water is passing through the sponge rather than around the edges.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Specifically engineered for Ciano filter compatibility
  • Effective at removing both coarse and fine debris
  • Promotes healthy biological filtration
  • Easy to install and remove during routine maintenance
  • Maintains optimal water flow rate due to 30PPI structure

Cons

  • Requires regular replacement every 90 days
  • Not compatible with filters outside the CFBIO range
  • Single-pack format may require multiple purchases for larger multi-tank setups

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To install, ensure your Ciano CFBIO filter is unplugged. Slide the existing foam out of the filter media compartment and discard it. Slide the new Ciano Water Foam (5.4 x 5.4 x 24.5cm) into the designated slot, ensuring it is flush with the filter walls to prevent water bypass.

Compatibility:

This product is strictly compatible with:

  • Ciano CFBIO150 Filter
  • Ciano CFBIO250 Filter

Care:

For the best performance, rinse the foam in a bucket of used aquarium water—never under tap water—during your monthly maintenance to remove excess buildup. Replace the foam entirely every 90 days to ensure the biological integrity of the filter.
