Questions
What is the dimensions (size) of the various filters? Aqueon Ammonia Cartridge Mini Pad, 10. What about 20, 40 etc?
- Hi there! Please give our Aqueon team a call at 1-888-255-4527 so that we can provide you with more information on our cartridge mini pads!
Helpful?
How do these spongy filters actually work to reduce/remove ammonia ? Are they made of some kind of special material?
- Unless they have beneficial bacteria in the filter themselves can only reduce the amonnia or convert it to nitrites and nitrates
Helpful?
Is this suitable for a quiet flow 20
- No. 20s have their own pads.

Hello, I have Marineland filter size C.
- Please contact the Aqueon Consumer Care team at 1-888-255-4527 so we can learn more further information and properly assist you.

Does reducing the ammonia levels impact the cycling process at all? For instance, if this neutralizes the ammonia, does that prevent the bacteria from growing and converting it to nitrites?
- No, these pads do not take the place of benificial bacteria that converts the amonnia to a less toxic forms such as nitrites and nitrates once your amonnia is at 0ppm and nitrites are at 0ppm then you can be sure your fish are safe and these pads do not do that, but could collect the bacteria that need to grow in large colonies to combat the amonnia and convert them so you will be wasting your money buying these if you think they will help complete the cycling process.
Helpful?
How often should you replace these pads?
- We recommend replacing every 2-3 weeks.
Helpful?
What size pads for 40L tank?
- This product is designed to be used with a filter, so the size of tank doesn't determine the size of pad. You need to determine what filter size (10,20,30,50,75) you have and then purchase the appropriate pads. Unfortunately, only knowing the tank size of 40 Long doesn’t tell us which filter you have. If you give us the Aqueon Technical Support Team at 888-255-4527, we can help you figure this all out.

All of my levels are good according to my water test strips, but my water still becomes very cloudy. Any suggestions?

I just purchased Imagitarium Ammonia-Reducing filter media cubes from Petco and there are no instructions for how to use. I have a 5 gallon tank with a submerged Built-in filtration system how many cubes do I use and how do I put them in my filter? Please provide the instructions thank you for your time.
how do I change the ammonia, nitrates in my aquiarium
I’m trying to cycle a 10 gal fish tank. I have been adding your biological booster for a month now and nothing is happening. The ammonia is holding steady at .5 ppm and I’m not seeing any nitrites. Is there a way I can test to see if there are actually live bacteria in the booster. I’ve checked everything else I can think of.
I recently got my goldfish (very small) and I put him in a 5 gallon tank (new tank with conditioned water and filter). He swims around very fast and up and down the tank walls. When I feed him flakes, he chews really quickly and then spits it out. I can’t tell if he actually eats anything. The ammonia levels are a little high (3.0) so I put in some ammonia fixer. All the other tests seem normal. Is there anything else I can do?
Is this tank big enough/small enough to hold goldfish fry (these fish will not be in it we are just cleaning up there other tank)
We are new to having aquariums, we really didn't realize so many things played a factor with the water. We currently have a 10 gallon tank but want to increase to a 29 gallon tank. We currently buy gallons of water but with the 29 gallon tank we really don't want to have to do that. We have well water with a salt filter. My levels from to tap was nitrate 10, nitrite 0, hardness 0, chlorine 0, alk 100, ph 7.. is my tap water safe even with the salt filter.
I just got a betta that has fin rot. He is in a 2.5 gallon until I can find my ten gallon. I'm worried about him surviving the nitrogen cycle as it is a new tank. I want to ask the pet store if they have an established aquarium so I can transfer their beneficial bacteria. I'm not certain that's a good idea. In a tank that small, I don't know when I should do a water change, especially since it's a brand new tank that hasn't ever been cycled. should I just wait and see? Do I have options?
All of my fish died after using a product purchased at Petco called ACUREL-F. How do I get their water safe to put in new fish?
I just got home from PetSmart to have my water tested and they said it was safe to transfer my fish into my new 29g with better filtration. But when I put them in there, I noticed they have red/lilac gills, signs of ammonia poisoning, and I'm thinking it's from my old 10g with poor filtration, but how can I be sure?
Going to be bringing a few guppies home, probably all females for simplicity sake. We have the 10 gallon tank, master test kit, heater, filter, some Omega One guppy food, and the proper decorations. But I would like to know any tips on how to safely bring them home in my car. (We still have to cycle the tank, so no rush.) We will be getting them from an actual pet store, definitely no Walmart or Meijer fish as those tend to be much less healthy.
is a 10 gallon tank good for 7 betta fish
We have four cardinal tetras, three glo danios, three glo tetras and a albino Cory cat. They are all the type to only get an inch to two inches long and so we have them in a twenty gallon tank. Have gravel and silk/plastic/resin/and live plant/decor and proper filter/heater/air. Also have changed filter once a month, siphoned 25% water/debris out every two weeks using water conditioner but don't know why we have murky water and how to remedy this...
