{"product_id":"sponge-filter","title":"Sponge Filter","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eA sponge filter is a common choice for shrimp tanks, nano aquariums, breeding setups, and fry-rearing tanks, where gentle filtration matters more than raw flow. Unlike power filters, there's no intake that can trap or injure shrimp, fry, or other small, delicate livestock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRun off a simple air pump and airline tubing (both sold separately), the sponge's large surface area supports a strong colony of beneficial bacteria for biological filtration. Maintenance is minimal — rinse the sponge in old tank water every 4–6 weeks — and the low running cost and reliability make it a common pick among shrimp keepers and breeders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Aquatic Garage","offers":[{"title":"Small (up to 40L)","offer_id":49694955569375,"sku":null,"price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Medium (up to 80L)","offer_id":49694955602143,"sku":null,"price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Large (up to 150L)","offer_id":49694955634911,"sku":null,"price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0804\/8515\/5039\/files\/sponge-filter-e.png?v=1781675812","url":"https:\/\/theaquaticgarage.com\/products\/sponge-filter","provider":"The Aquatic Garage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
