RE: Sponge material

["Stuart R Scott" <scottyflag@enter.net>]

I use a company called Consolidated Plastics to buy bags and tape for my
business. They are a packaging and shipping supplier. I don't see foam
sheets in the catalog but they might know where to get it. Their phone
number is 800-363-1000.

Also a thought is the foam they sell in sewing shops like Joann's fabric.
They use it for pillows and upholstering and things. That's where I buy
filter floss ( polyester fiberfill ) in 1 LB bags for about $ 3.50. They
also have quilt bating ( also polyester ) that can be cut and wrapped for
cartridge filters.

Subject: Sponge material


I haven't yet completely given up my UGFs, as they continue to function well
in several tanks.  I am only having trouble with plant roots getting
entangled
in the plate.  Some of my computer components come with protective sheets of
the same sponge material that sponge filters use.  Anyone know where I can
get
a sheet of this stuff to cover my filter plates?  I've looked all over town,
and since I don't know the actual technical or trade name for the stuff, a
web
search is pretty unrewarding.
