Your 10 gallon aquarium stocks many types of small fish and you worry about an aquarium filter can cause damage to the fish, a sponge filter may be the best choice for you. XY-2831 Air Pump Sponge Filter can provide both aeration and filtration for your fish without any small fish, even a baby Guppy get stuck in it.

The filter works basing on an aquarium aerator (not included) which provides the air to operate the filtration in the sponge. The filter can perform both mechanical and biological filtration outside as well as inside the sponge where the helpful aerobic bacteria can colonize and degrade the toxic nitrogen (ammonia and nitrite) in water.
