Fluval Foam 206/306 (2) fits 04/05 series
Genuine mechanical foam block sized for the Fluval 206, 207, 306 and 307 canister filters. Two-piece Bio-Foam (Fluval part A222) that fits the mechanical stage across all four models in this generation, since they share the same media basket dimensions.
Key features
- One part, four filters – the 206, 207, 306 and 307 all take the same foam block, so there's no need to match a sub-model.
- Custom-fitted – moulded to the media basket, closing off the gaps debris would otherwise bypass through.
- Engineered pore size – traps fine particles while keeping flow up between services.
- Two-pack – replaces both foam pieces in one service.

Care and maintenance
Rinse in removed tank water rather than tap water to protect the bacteria on the foam, and replace once it's torn, compacted, or stays dirty after rinsing.
Warranty and delivery
Covered by Fluval's standard parts warranty against manufacturing defects, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Standard freight.
Common questions
Is the foam the same across the 206, 207, 306 and 307?
Yes – all four share the same media basket dimensions, so one part number covers the range.
Can I mix this with Bio-Foam Max or Bio-Foam+ in the same filter?
Yes, many owners run one standard block and one Max or Bio-Foam+ block together for extra mechanical or biological capacity.
How often should I replace it?
There's no fixed interval from Fluval – replace it when it's torn or stays clogged after a rinse, rather than on a calendar.
