Hamburger Mattenfilter, or Hamburger Mat Filter, HMF, is a very popular biological filtration originated in Europe.   

 

Favored especially by breeders and hobbyists who maintain a larger number of tanks in a dedicated fish room for its easy maintenance.

 

The most powerful biological filtration

 

Reticulated open cell sponge provides more surface area than any existing types of internal filters for beneficial bacteria to colonize to break down harmful waste (ammonia and nitrite).

 

Air-lifting driven water circulation helps aerating the water

100% safe for even the smallest fish fry and shrimp baby.

Installation is easy –

• You can install the sponge at either the side or the back of your tank, feel free to trim the sponge to the right size with a utility knife
• You can run the outlet of air lifting tube either on the top of sponge, or through the sponge (need to drill a hole)
• Connect the air-lifting tube with an air pump and tubing (air pump and air tubing are not included)

Maintenance is easy – rinse the sponge with aquarium water every 6 to 12 months, or when it is dirty and clogged.
