Can you???? These are amazing! Well thought out. Well designed. Sturdy. Best thing is you can use an old tank that’s just laying around and turn it into an amazing wet dry filter that rivals any sunp overflow filter on the market - DIRT CHEAP. You NEED THIS. Just buy it!!! Review: Durable but doesn't fit my tank - This is a pretty durable feeling basket, though the price is pretty excessive for what it is. Unfortunately it doesn't fit imagitarium 29 gallon tanks. I knew before ordering that imagitarium 29g are not quite standard sizes, but I at least figured this would wedge about halfway down into the tank. It almost sits on the inner rim lip, but not quite, so I can't even leave it like it is unfortunately, and will either have to remove the tank rim lip or find something else, probably a pond basket, which are much cheaper. I was willing to pay the price for something I thought I could use, and it is well made, but unfortunately it's just a little too wide. 4 stars for the inconvenience and price, otherwise it seems like a good product. ## Features - Size: 12"x10" Fit on top of standard 20Long, 20High, 29,30,55gal and other 12" US standard aquariums. It will also fit on top of Aqueon 10gal - Holds filter pad and other pre-filter media. Block majority of the fish waste before entering your tank / sump - 2.5" overflow drain prevent potential clog and overflow - Much cheaper but way more efficient and easier to maintain than filter socks. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Package Dimensions | 29.9 x 24.79 x 10.69 cm; 358 g | | Quantity | 1 | | batteries required | No | | Batteries Included | No | | Item Weight | 358 g | ## Images ![Aquarium Media Basket for 12" Wide Tank 20/29/30/55gal DIY Filter pad Sump Wet Dry Trickle Filter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81zmATcrYSL.jpg) ![Aquarium Media Basket for 12" Wide Tank 20/29/30/55gal DIY Filter pad Sump Wet Dry Trickle Filter - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81OVfLV0tPL.jpg) ![Aquarium Media Basket for 12" Wide Tank 20/29/30/55gal DIY Filter pad Sump Wet Dry Trickle Filter - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71DODyVM3TL.jpg) ![Aquarium Media Basket for 12" Wide Tank 20/29/30/55gal DIY Filter pad Sump Wet Dry Trickle Filter - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811ATVsEvvL.jpg) ![Aquarium Media Basket for 12" Wide Tank 20/29/30/55gal DIY Filter pad Sump Wet Dry Trickle Filter - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81K7sF+YebL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You need this! *by B***D on 21 November 2025* People who say these don’t fit β€” CAN YIU READ A Product DESCRIPTION that tells you what this fits?

Its doable, but the measurements are off.. ## Frequently Bought Together - Reefing Art Aquarium Media Basket for 12" Wide Tank 20/29/30/55gal DIY Filter pad Sump Wet Dry Trickle Filter - Aquatic Experts Aquarium Filter Floss for Fish Tank Filters - FilterFirst Aquarium Filter Pad - Media Roll for Crystal Clear Water, 3/4" - 1" Thick (12 Inch Wide, 72 Inch Long) - Aquarium Filter Floss 12 * 72 Inches,Dual Density Aquarium Filter Pad,Pond Filter Pad,Filter Media for Crystal Clear Water,Safe for Fish/Reef/Turtles --- ## 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.us/products/507622939-aquarium-media-basket-for-12-wide-tank-20-29-30](https://www.desertcart.us/products/507622939-aquarium-media-basket-for-12-wide-tank-20-29-30) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-05*
