I can only find the dense bubble trap sponges now, not the ones like the original that came with my eshopps sump. The original(on left) is very porous and really doesn't clog at all. The ones I find now are very dense and clog easily. The one on the right is an example of three different sponges I tried lately, including an eshopps replacement, Any help finding the more porous ones or an idea of what to use that doesn't clog so easily would be appreciated. I use them to prevent macro algae from finding it's way to the return section.

Following along because the same type of sponge came with my trigger sump, and I can’t find it.

I asked BRS this question but they don’t have it.
 
I agree with @AdamNC. Where are you located? I purchased the exact item pointed out on Amazon. It's more than I need. Would be happy to cut a piece and send it to you. PM me if you are interested.
 
Why does it always seem so hard to find replacement parts for anything I buy for my tank. Especially skimmer parts.
