Has anyone else had this problem? The top to my sponge filter just keeps floating off. It has never stayed very good since i got it and now it wont stay on at all. Any suggestions on how to keep it on? I tried putting a rock on top of it but i couldnt get it to stay. Any suggestions would be amazing! thanks!
 
What brand is it?If its anything other than an ATI hydrosponge theres your problem right there.;)

Check the cap for cracks.If its not cracked just loose you can use some teflon tape around the tube or whatever to make it fit tighter.If its cracked you can glue it back together with some pvc cement.
 
It is an ATI sponge filter, it is just really loose and wont stay on. I guess ill pick up some teflon tape tonight.
