Oase BioMaster Thermo External Filter

Sponges are the best static biomedia. If you have spare media and can fit it in without disrupting flow then adding it won't hurt. I wouldn't run carbon or purigen permanently. Floss is more of a maintenance choice, either no floss and low maintenance or with floss and you change/clean the floss weekly/fortnightly as required by your tank.

Thank you. Filter came with some plastic media in a bag and in a basket. Would you suggest replacing that with Seachem matrix or just add some matrix to the same basket.

Would floss and/or purigen fit above the final orange sponge without interfering with proper seal of the lid?

Thank you!
 
Oase has an official online shop to buy replacement parts but it seems like this new pipe is too recent so it's not available yet. For the US site, their shipping cost is unreasonably high. $13 to ship a priming pump head or a prefilter tube 🙄
The new filter intake shaft/tube design is still nowhere to be seen! I want to try this new design with the increased number of holes and hole size. Come on, Oase!
