Clarisea SK500 Woeth It?

[Daniel400G]

Hello fellow reefers

I have 2 Clarisea Sk 5000
I have been having issues with these 2 units

Anyone else having issues?

I find that it captures maybe 50percent of Gung.
Having clean of my sump once a month because all of the stuff the roller mats doesn't get.
There is an bypass and yes I keep it closed.
Double and triple checkes to make sure everything installed as per manufactures specifications.
I have had to install a baffle in my sump with floss to pretty much do what the 2 roller mats should be doing.
Changing the rolls of floss every 3 weeks.
I have a 400G DT with an abyss A200 return pump set at 90 percent.
A Neptune flow meter thats measuring 900G per hour output.

The attached picture showing one roller that had just finished over night.

Anyone have or advise, or these things not worth it?

Good question. I've never considered one as I don't find changing a filter sock every 5 to 7 days as an issue that would justify spending money on a roller mat.
