7” x 14” Filter Pads – Mechanical Filtration for Lobster Tanks and Seafood Display Systems

• Small filter pads provide mechanical filtration by capturing debris and organic waste before it circulates through the system.
• Keeping debris out of the system is critical to preventing cloudy water, ammonia buildup, and declining tank conditions.

Mechanical filtration is the first step in keeping lobster tanks stable.

In real-world service work, these are changed when:

• water flow slows down
• debris is visible
• tanks start to look cloudy

Neglecting filter pad changes is one of the most common causes of tank problems.

• Install where water first enters the filtration system.
• Replace at least weekly or whenever flow is reduced.

• Do not allow pads to fully clog.
• Reduced flow can stress pumps and filtration systems.
• Replace regularly to maintain stable tank conditions.
