What filter media is everyone using in their biocube and why?

Currently, all I use is Filter Floss in the filter cartridge place on the right side of the back reservoir. I’m noticing that in order to keep my tank looking pristine I would probably have to clean it at least every 2 weeks. (Current cleaning/water change schedule is one time during the first week of each month)
Maybe the solution is just to clean more..but if you notice a difference with specific filter media please let me know.
 
In my BioCube 16 I have the heater in the overflow chamber (I removed the false floor). In the middle chamber I have an InTank Media basket. In the top of have a filter pad, in the middle I use Purigen and in the bottom I use ClearFXpro. In my return chamber I have my pH probe and Kessil light mount.
