Hi Everyone I have a 28 inches ( L ) x 11 inches ( W) x 16 inches ( H) . It has water capcity of 16 gallons . The aquarium is 6mm ( 1/4 inch or 0.23 inch ) thick and has two side braces which I think are not necessary because there should be one brace in the center not two braces at the end...

That's a great idea. I'm thinking of doing it for the current sponge to be able to clean one half everyweek :)

what I mean by making this thread is the following : how to clean the sponge while maintaining benficial bacteria ? because the sponge is both mechanical and biological media.
