So I have a bit if a funky system. I found a massive 150 gallon sump from a former LFS that I repurposed into my sump for my 180. The trials and tribulations are well documented in my build thread.

One of the consistent challenges has been changing out the filter socks. The way i plumbed the system, i have to pop off a few pieces of pictures every time I go to change the socks. A few of those misadventures can be found here.

I thought that I'd make my life easy by replacing the ends of the hard fittings with 1" flexible tubing, but I still run the risk of putting strain on my external overflow everything I mess with the socks.

So I'd like to find something easier. Can someone point me towards a set of 7" media cups?
