Looking for Sponge pads

[enderg60]

build a few reactors and I need some sponge pads to hold the media.

I need 6 pads 9"x6" x 1" thick

Anyone know where to get some?

anyone?

Not sure how it will work but..... I needed some for my BRS Dual reactor and refused to pay the shipping charge for a couple dollars worth of stuf. So.......last night I picked up some "Register Filters" fro Lowes. I fold one pad twice and then used a razor kife to cut through all 4 at one time. I think it will work and it was only a couple of bucks.

ok checked out the register filters and they are too small and WAY to thin so BUMP

Check I the lfs that stock filters for their made stumps and just cut it down. Some of the hvac filters have oil in them.

been asking around and no one seems to have any larger then 5" wide and I need 6"
