Vortech MP60 Foam Guards Pack of 2
A foam cover that keeps small animals and debris away from the MP60 propeller. This pack of two genuine EcoTech Marine foam guards fits over the wet side (the part of a VorTech pump that sits inside the aquarium, holding the propeller) of a VorTech MP60. EcoTech says the foam guard can be used so delicate marine animals do not get caught in the nozzle, and EcoTech's Australian distributor describes it as stopping debris, food particles and even tiny fish from getting in and clogging the pump.
Key features
- Genuine EcoTech Marine part, part number MP314, listed by EcoTech as the MP60 foam cover.
- Protects small livestock, such as small fish, shrimp and delicate invertebrates, from being drawn into the pump.

Care
Foam traps debris, so rinse the guard whenever you clean the pump. EcoTech recommends cleaning the wet side every 6 to 8 weeks, or as needed. Replace the guard once it is torn or breaking down.
