Small mesh bag with zipper?

Centerline · Nov 20, 2017

Does anyone know where I could score some small, fine mesh bags with plastic zippers? Something like the size of Purigen bags would be perfect. I have a small tank with a media tray and want to maximize the flow through it so bags. Trial and error shows that a flat foot print and evenly distributed media seems to work best.

Thanks

These may be bigger than you are looking for.. but are like the purigen bags

You could probably fold it over to fit

I got these to put Pond Matrix in - perfect for that:

I've just gotten back test results from Triton. Turns out I have traces of Tin in the water. Checking these zipper bags I see that the zipper teeth are nylon but the slider is painted metal. I'm going to switch to drawstring bags. Aquatic Experts on Amazon has some that look good. 3" x 8" or 8 " x 12" with fine or 'high flow' mesh.
