I have an Eclipse System Six tank (6gal) which uses carbon filter cartridges.
Unfortuneately all supplies of this type of cartridge are out of stock here in Australia at present.
I am desperate to change my filter and have been advised by 1 store that I can just lay some of their foam on top of my existing cartridge for the time being. Is this ok or should I try to rig up a makeshift filter using carbon granules and the foam or just the foam.
Another option maybe to use the shorter System 3 cartridge and a piece of foam to make up the difference in the length.
Please advise your opinion on the best option.
I have 5 cardinal tetras and 1 clown loach in the tank. The tank is in the 15th day of the cycle.
Thanks,
Louise
