It is used to install on filter strainer intake to avoid shrimplets or baby fishes being suck away by the filtering system. Inner diameter: 17mm Outer diameter: 2.8 cm Height: 7 cm Tiny animals like most freshwater shrimp, invertebrates, as well as small fish and fry are at risk of being sucked into the large slots on most standard intake strainers. When cleaning is required, simply brush any accumulated debris off of the Filter Guard with your hand or a soft brush of some sort like a tooth brush. Please note that Stainless Steel Filter Guards fit over the filter’s intake pipe, not over the strainer. If your filter has an integrated strainer, these Filter Guards will not work without modification.

Good But...
The actual device is great, however the sharp edges of the metal cut through the grommet if you let it turn at all. I took mine off to clean it and in doing so, ruined the grommet. I have not tried to find another grommet at the hardware store yet. If I find one I will probably glue the grommet on so it cannot twist or turn on the metal filter. The metal is so thin, there is no way to dull the edge.
