Is there anything wrong with cutting up foam rubber and putting on the intake of an aquaclear to prevent shrimp and babies going in...when cleaning my aquaclear 50, I found 8 shrimp in there.

Yea, I saw them today at the petco...did not look at the price but assumed they were over $5...I will look tomorrow when passing by.I use aquaclear foam inserts cut to fit over intake pickup tubes and also cut into sponge filters.
They look like they work well...FWIW. Here is a link to what I use.
Aquarium Pre Filter; Filter Max intake filters for HOB, canister filters, etc.
Okay...I ordered them a few minutes ago and then got an email saying they are shipped...great customer service.They do work well. I reviewed them in the reviews section.

How often do you clean them?
Got them yesterday...they work great, easy to install but a little big in a 10g and a 20g but I like them.Once a week I swish them in a bucket with dechlorinated water. Their customer service is wonderful. You should be getting them Friday or Saturday.

With a handle like that, you must have spent a lot of time "Haze Gray and Underway". Are you a Boatswain's Mate? Hope I remembered the proper name of the rating. It's been some time since I've used the terminology. I'm sure I'm a little rusty.
