It's just an open cell foam John. I take it you are only using the pump
for a fountain because the foam is only there to stop the fountain head
nozzles getting blocked. Any fine material that isn't going to rot
would do. How about cutting the legs off a pair of tights? They won't
last as long as the foam did but they aren't that expensive.
