I suppose any sponge would work, could even use a rubber band maybe. I like your idea though, since it doesn't involve adding anything else
i wouldnt use a rubber band...these sponges are like 2 bucks a pack. have you ever smelt a rubber band? i have no idea if they use chemicals....plys the sponge will give you more beneficial bacteria.

Plus it doesn't take but 2 months under water for that rubber band to rot off.i wouldnt use a rubber band...these sponges are like 2 bucks a pack. have you ever smelt a rubber band? i have no idea if they use chemicals....plys the sponge will give you more beneficial bacteria.
Aquaclear inserts are where it's at.

NOTE: Don't trim the zip ties. It leave a sharp edge that fish scrap themselves on if they bump into them.

If you look around in the fish store, sometimes you can find tube shaped sponges that you can just slip over the filter intake. Azoo sponge filters are one, there is at least one other.
You can get foam pipe insulation that is porous - sometimes it has a skin on the surface, but sometimes you can find the kind that doesn't. It is safe for aquariums.

I get it, after someone uses this fish safe foam, you get to say your "fish are all gonna die"You can get foam pipe insulation that is porous - sometimes it has a skin on the surface, but sometimes you can find the kind that doesn't. It is safe for aquariums.
