Protect your smallest aquarium inhabitants without restricting your filter’s performance.

The Stainless Steel Filter Intake Guard fits over your filter intake to help prevent shrimp, shrimplets, fry, and other small aquatic animals from being pulled into the filtration system. Its fine stainless-steel mesh allows water to flow through while providing an added layer of protection around the intake.

Especially useful for shrimp tanks, breeding tanks, and planted aquariums where tiny inhabitants need extra protection.
