Are fleece rollers worth it?

What do you folks using them find they accomplish that would be different if you simply did not use one?

As of now my tank is a Fowler tank, and the amount i need to feed, would wreck my tank if I didn’t use a reefmat. It’s still a dirty tank, would be worse without one. Had the tank had corals and a good amount of cuc might be okay.

If someone changes out their socks every ~3 days I don't think the difference would be material.

If they leave the socks in for weeks or wait until they are clogged it's a different story :)

I fully agree, I hedged with "well maintained filter socks" but may have been too vague to close the gap.
