Marine Blue MB-201 Mini Aquarium Filter – Air-Driven Sponge Filter for Small Tanks & Bowls

Keep your nano aquarium or fish bowl crystal clear with the Marine Blue MB-201 Mini Filter. This compact, highly efficient filter is specifically designed for "all kinds of small fish tanks" and odd-shaped containers where traditional hanging filters just won't fit.

The MB-201 is an air-driven system that serves two purposes at once: it filters the water and adds vital oxygen. Featuring a high-quality biochemical sponge and an internal air stone, it provides gentle filtration that is perfect for delicate fish like Bettas, Guppies, and shrimp, ensuring a clean and healthy environment without strong currents.

Key Features & Benefits

• Biological: The porous structure of the sponge and internal media cartridge promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria, which break down harmful toxins.

• Perfect for Small Spaces: Its petite, cylindrical design fits easily into round bowls, small desktop tanks, and breeding boxes. It attaches securely to the bottom or side with a strong suction cup.

  Multi-Stage Filtration:

• Mechanical: The dense black foam sponge effectively isolates dirt, floating debris, and fish waste from the water column.

• Oxygen Enrichment: Powered by an air pump (sold separately), the internal air stone diffuses air into fine bubbles. This "good oxygenation effect" ensures your fish breathe easy and keeps the water from becoming stagnant.

• Gentle Flow: unlike power filters, the MB-201 creates a gentle water lift that won't blow your fish around, making it the top choice for fry (baby fish) and slow-swimming species.

• Quiet Operation: Engineered for "silent operation" (Shizune), letting you enjoy the peaceful view of your tank without annoying motor hums.

Setup & Usage Tips

1. Air Pump Required: This filter must be connected to an air pump to function (air pump not included).

2. Connection: Connect one end of the included airline tubing to the white L-shaped nozzle on the filter and the other end to your air pump.

3. Placement: Use the suction cup to stick the filter to the bottom or side of your tank.
