filter socks

I recently watched a video on YouTube about a filter cup that’s basically a filter sock, but overtime is cheaper and just as efficient. This seems like a very good solution to the filter sock, but I can’t find much information on it. There hasn’t been any posts on it on YouTube in a year and the...

Just getting my 310 gal going and am wondering how will the refugium be seeded with copepods or baby shrimp with filter socks on the return? I don’t want all the micro critters to just be washed away when the socks are rinsed. Has anyone tried the filter cups instead of socks? Reviews I’ve seen...

I’ve been working on my 6ft lagoon tank that I set up as a room divider. One of my main focus is to get crystal clear water so I can see through it from all sides in to my living space. It all comes down to filter socks. I’ve tried most filter socks and wasn’t happy with results. So I went in...

Hi all, Does anyone know of a cheaper alternative to the RedSea 100 micron fine polish fleece filter socks? I’ve tried other fleece socks from Amazon, but the plastic ring is a little larger than that of the RedSea socks. I like how the RedSea socks fit like a glove, but I don’t like that...

Hi guys, new here to R2R. I've been in fishkeeping for a long time, but mostly freshwater. I recently converted to a saltwater setup and things are going fairly well so far. I have one minor issue that I was hoping I could ask about to see if anybody has faced the same problem: I have the...

Hey all, I have an IM 50gal AIO Lagoon right now, with a filter sock on one side of the rear filtration and a bio caddy on the other. I'm looking for replacements for the filter socks, as I have heard there are much more effective options and changing the socks every 3 days is a pain. What would...

Trying to understand and figure out when the right time for me to begin running my skimmer and UV is on my new tank build. 310 gallon display tank, been up and running since September 2nd of this year. Just added my first group of 5 captive-bred fish to the tank over the last couple days. I have...

Hello everyone, I have a JBJ 15G cube. The Overflow Chamber: 3.25"L x 4"W x 16"H. I am looking to get a filter sock for it, but I can't find a 2.75 inch filter sock with a ring that holds it. The 4 inch ring is too big so I am kinda stuck. Anyone know what I can do?

I’m setting up a new RSR XXL 750 and before I fill it (hopefully very soon!) I need some advice as this will be my first sump system. This tank’s sump comes with 4x 4” filter sock holders. Filter socks are out for me; my life is way too busy to deal with cleaning them every 3-5 days and that’s...

I just did my first cleaning of filter socks. Used regular bleach washed and then ran a rinse cycle. When I pulled them out they still have a bleach smell on them. Is this normal or do I need to keep rinsing them until the bleach smell is gone? Worried if I use them there may be bleach residue...

I upgraded my tank to a much larger set up! So now I want to sell this good equipment to a new home! Everything here is less than 8 months old in good condition. Nuvo Abyss Pano tank AIO, Desk Top Skimmer, A fairly new Mighty jet 326 gph desktop return pump, a via aqua 100w heater, and 5 filter...

I broke down my 40 Breeder tank as I am replacing it with a 50g AIO. I have some stuff I hate to throw away but I just dont have a use for it so I figured I'd post it here first. Everything must be picked up locally, Taunton or Lakeville, MA, and is technically free but if you are able to trade...

I know another thought-provoking controversial topic :eek: :p:cool: . Looking back through some old threads I've been trying to decide whether I should swap out my nylon socks for felt socks. In my indecisiveness, I'm gonna leave it up to the community to decide for me. It would also be nice...

Lot of 14- 4" filter socks of varying lengths between 8"-14". They are all clean except for two. I no longer use socks on my system so no longer needed. Looking for $55 shipped.

Hi, I have some good quality filter socks size 4"x15" Heat sealed and fit stander 4" ring. Will also fit RedSea Reefer if you trim the filter socks ring. (I had a redsea 525xl) As a hobbies, I know a good quality product when I see it. I am using these socks and i had mine washed 5-10 times...

So I used the washing machine on a sanitize cycle with a couple caps of bleach to wash my filter socks. I ran it through three rinse cycles, then let them air dry for a full day. I noticed they still have a pretty strong bleach smell. Is this normal, or would you say they still have bleach in...

I made entirely too many filter socks so now I need to get rid of them. They are 4x10 and they will fit any sump/holder. You can also use a drawstring. Shipping is $4-7 depending on location. I have as many as you want. I mad WAY too many.

Hi Guys! I just started production on a new line of filter socks for parasite control In an aquarium. The socks will be high grade felt available in 8 and 14 in long for now and will filter the water down to 3-5 micron particles. I need your help to spread the word and help me set a price point...

I need help. I have a 13.5 Nano that has gotten the dreaded Dino. This is the 2nd time in my first six months and it has about drove me out of the saltwater and reefkeeping hobby and back into freshwater. I am not a quitter though. I have an action plan in place for combating the Dino so that...

Anyone using filter floss in cups that sit in the filter sock spots? Any issues with this? I'm preparing my next build and was thinking this would be a much easier maintenance than dealing with filter socks.

I have about 30 plus 4” socks that I use to change out every 2-3 days. Unfortuntely, that is the easy part. Turning them inside out, then soaking them in bleach, then rinsing and allowing them to completely dry..what a PITA! So I decided, like others I am sure, to use filter cups! I have two cup...

@Jeremy@CoralVue Hi Jeremy, Someone here on this forum tells me that Coralvue makes or sells 5 micron filter socks. I can't find them on your website. I know you carry 5 micron sediment filters for RO systems, but he is saying filter socks as in socks for a sump. Where are they available ?
