I've never used one of these filters but I think you can replace the carbon with biological media

ive bought a few things off ebay. the latest was the 2 submersible pumps for my sump and i found that if you deal with a seller that has a high rating the product they deliver is what they advertise. also if you use paypal they have a safe guard system for smaller purchases.

just so happens i got brought lots of sponges for my fluval fx5,,,
go to any fish shop and see if they have pond filter sponges<usually large,,,,,then cut them down to size, you do not need to buy actual fluval sponges,,,,
