Looking for at a black filter about 11/2"-2" thick, and can be cut in a strip about 1" wide and about 4' long** A: It's about 6"x6" square and 1" thick. I didn't measure, but that's within a half inch on the side measurements, and a quarter inch of the thickness1. So, no, you won't be able to get a 4' strip from it. You can buy filter material that is not cut down so small already, so that you can make custom shapes/sizes. I don't know of any that come large enough to make a 4', but perhaps a place that sells to professional aquariums would carry stuff that big. **Q: Do these contain carbon?** A: This product does not contain carbon. **Q: which kind of material is this foam? PU or Others** A: I am afraid I don't know the answer to your question, sorry! **Q: Can use with aquion filter** A: I do not know, they would have to be the same dimensions. ## Frequently Bought Together - API FILSTAR XP FILTRATION FOAM 20 PPI Aquarium Canister Filter Filtration Pads 2-Count (723A) - API BIO-CHEM ZORB SIZE 6 Aquarium Canister Filter Filtration Pouch 1-Count Bag --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/255484347-api-filstar-xp-filtration-foam-20-ppi-aquarium-canister-filter](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/255484347-api-filstar-xp-filtration-foam-20-ppi-aquarium-canister-filter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-10-11*
