The Bio-Wheel Penguin Rite-Size C Filter Cartridge by Marineland mechanically filters water through a pad of double thick poly-fiber, trapping debris and waste particles before the water is chemically filtered through Black Diamond Premium Activated Carbon. This pre-assembled cartridge is made with a patented ribbed backing to ensure even distribution of activated carbon and maximum water-to-carbon contact for crystal clear and clean water. The Bio-Wheel Penguin Rite-Size C Filter Cartridge slides easily into place, providing superior mechanical and chemical filtration and making replacement fast, dry and effortless.

I have been using this type of filters for quite some time and Chewy has the sizes that I have needed and these are great filters
The price for these was such a great deal, I bought 8 six packs, for a total of 48!!
I've been using the originals that came with the filter for a while, washing them as needed. Those are too worn out so I ordered this new oem set. Not only is it a crazy good price! But the product seems to be improved over the original design, the blue filter material looks thicker and more durable than the originals did when they were new. I highly recommend if you have one of the penguin models that use these size C cartridges
Love these filters they work really well and are easy to change and the filter these go is super easy to clean also
Spraying out every week really helps and no need for a new filter every water change.
I'm actually using these in a similarly sized, other than recommend, over the side filter brand. I originally purchased them in a thrift store and found the size compatible. I purchased these as a special deal (item qualified for gift card.) The Chewy price makes them a quick, economical cartridge. While the padding and charcoal are thin, they cover a wide area. For a long time I was rinsing out a thick filter pad that I cut to size, along with a charcoal pad cut to size. It's a lot more work and these make filter media changes easy and fast. I change them out about every 7 - 10 days, let them drain and toss; they can collect a good amount of debris. Will keep purchasing.
So glad I found out about Chewy. These are Much less from them than the chain stores
The filter works great and everything was delivered the next day! Will be ordering again
Product is great but when chewy puts it at bottom with heavy items it gets smashed
Chewy has managed to keep the cost of this product close to pre pandemic rates. These are the manufacturer's filters, not some knockoff. They fit perfectly in my QT tank filter.
