[shadow1345]

i plan on breeding angelfish and i wanted to use a sponge filter so i look up on websites and i found one i would like to buy and it is the PENGUIN REVERSE FLOW BY MARINELAND and i found out that it doesnt come with a powerhead and i am confused if i have to buy a powerhead seperate the buy the PENGUIN REVERSE FLOW BY MARINELAND and the have to buy the kit for it?

any advice would be fine
DIY plan are fine
websites would be best if it came with sponge, powerhead, etc.

I was looking into sponge filters myself and I think they're supposed to be attached to air pumps running air stones. The site also said that a sponge filter could be hooked up to a powerhead.

I have a couple of those kits, and I think they only fit on penguin power heads. I used them for a while on a setup that had a reverse flow undergravel filter. I currently use the sponges from them to cover the HOB filter intakes on my fry tanks.

is that just the plug in or is that an actual filter?

That's the actual filter. You need an airpump, an airline and a standard airstone to run it. I have those, too.

Edit: Of course, you can also use a powerhead.

no it has a plug in on top for the air line. you could hook a power head on it. i have a couple over the intake of my canister filters.
