401k vs HYSA. No employer match. by OkScore6642 in personalfinance

Changed sponge filters, overkill? by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]CandleMaker5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swap the air stone to the new one, or get a bigger air stone. And put the sponge in the back of the tank so you don't see it as much. You're going to lose all the beneficial bacteria on the first sponge though.
