    "The AquaClear 50 Foam Insert as the filler for 510 carts is by far the best filler I have used to date. I have been using it as a filler for over a week now and no problems to report. "

    I finally found it at a local pet store. I guess it's for fish ponds or something.

    Talking suh-weeet

    Recently got fed up with the stock fill and tried the straw mod - worked well, but seemed a little inconsistent in my 501 and found it a bit leaky.

    During my last ordering binge, found that Strictly E-Juice had 'blue foam' and ordered it - I'm assuming it's the same as described here - it's amazing!

    The foam you get from SEJ is cut into small rectangles - I've tried using one (as a 'plug' for just the end of the cartridge with good results, but higher incidents of leaking. Putting in a couple seems to be the perfect fit and function for these carts - very happy with this!

    Since I can't post links (yet), I can't provide it here, but navigate to 'cartridge filler' on the strictlyejuice.com site to find it.

    Cheers!

    This is funny, when I revived this thread it had about 1800 views, now it's at a whopping 21K. I love the blue foam and it literally kept me vaping!

    Replying to myself here, but hopefully some one can answer. I "thought" I found AquaClear Foam Insert at the pet food store, but getting home, it's not the "AquaClear 50" but the AquaClear 20"

    I have NO idea what 20 or 50 means, but wrong stuff?

    I think it has to do with the size of the air pockets?? You already have it...give it a shot!
    Mine say "Rite size U", Marineland is the brand.
    Worse it'll do is leak.

    Thanks for all the info in this thread. I picked up the Blue Marineland Bonded filter package and it had been wonderful.
    I just cut out a piece that I can stuff into the mouthpiece, just cut it even with the edge. Filled the cart up and pushed it on the atty. The bridge in my 510 seems to push the foam down just enough and it stays in place perfectly.
    For me, it's been a no fuss, no mess setup that is working awsome. Consistent vape and very long lasting.
    I didn't try to do anything fancy, folds, special shaped cuts, etc. Just eyeballed a piece of foam and stuffed it in.
    There has been no odd taste, no burning, etc.

    The foam package was about $6 at PetSmart and looks to be a lifetime supply.
    Great informative thread going here!

    Many thanks! Off to PetSmart in the am. We have three in town--one of them should carry it. I have 5 empty carts and this is a perfect solution!

    The density is the same, they're just different size blocks for different filters..You're good
