On the topic of prefilter sponges for HOB and canisters, I always had the mindset that it kept the junk in the tank and prevented the filter from doing its job, which is to suck up all the stuff. Also, I was told that it would decrease the effectiveness and strain the motor.
I have only used them on my power heads or tanks with fry.
I have seen some video and posts where folks swear by them and the benefit of added beneficial bacteria on the medium.
Thoughts, opinions, experience?
Also, if you use them, can you give recommendations, show pictures, etc?
