I have a 20 and a 30 on my 30 gallon. They work fine.. you have to clean them every couple of weeks or they stop being efficient.

Just rinse in tank water during water changes , stuff lasts forever. They tell u two months because they need to make a profit.
Foam blocks used to last for a year ,now they make them so they fall apart in two months. So they can make a profit.

You can buy bulk much cheaper than inserts, and make yourself. You can use filter materials you cut to fit yourself instead of foam blocks, or in combination with.
