Is this what I'm looking for? Carbon filters?

Tetra Whisper Carbon Filters - Sale - Fish - PetSmart

Don't use that, its not all foam, it has carbon in it.
You want pure foam without anything else.
No fused layers, no added chemicals, just pure unadulterated foam.
Fluval and Marineland are two companies that make such foam, but there are others.
Very important:
Open the box and look at it if you can.
See any fused layers?
Is any crunchy stuff making a sound when you poke it?
Does it smell like chemicals?
Read the description and ingredients on the box before you buy it.

Can I buy Fluval or Marineland in any stores besides pet stores (besides online stores)?

Sorry, but from my vast experience, NO.
Save your self alot of fruitless running around.
Been there, done that.
Just order it from an internet pet products suppler.
One package will last you for life, and you'll have to leave most of it to some lucky vaper in your will.

Some e-juice vendors also sell smaller pieces of blue foam.
For Example:
http://www.vaporrenew.com/index.php/wholesale-diy/filters/exclusive-xl-hott-filter-sheet.html
Its a good size piece.

OR

You could snag one of those REO Mini juice feeding box mods and forget you ever heard of blue foam.

The choice is yours.
