Best Mechanical Filtration for nano?

[coloradoreefer94]

Filter socks, floss, or polyfil for best filtration of a mixed AIO nano tank, if I don't want to deal with cleaning/replacing more than once per week?

Not sure how your tank is set up. I don't know if it's best but I recently started an IM 20 AIO and I ditched the socks in exchange for floss holders and am running poly filters.

I also have the same tank, the IM 20 nuvo. I've read the socks need cleaned every 3 days to be truly effective which I would rather not do

I took one look at the little socks and immediately knew I wasn't cleaning those little things. 4 inch socks are hard to clean. If I'm not mistaken IM says to throw them away but I can't see that at $11 each. I went with floss holders and poly filter from Intank

They seem to be working fine.
