Filter pads and glass wool as well as filter cups with pads
[/QUOTE
So what is the fabric? Filter wool? Or filter pads?
Really? This is not the paper one it is like fabric. I actually thought it would allow too much flow like a mesh (not felt) filter socks that is why I am asking.coffee filters wouldnt allow enough flow
Thanks. Can that stuff fit into a cup? Or it will leak water in between the pieces/clumps?
Cool and that stuff doesnt make the skimmer go crazy like brand new filter socks?I fill my cup 1/2 with the Poly-Fil. No leaks in between.

Which filter pads you using?Both
Filter pads and floss
Nylon stockings also an alternative
blue bulk on Amazon, marine land, cobalt and moreWhich filter pads you using?
Pantyhose just has so many uses around the aquarium! I just used a pair of cheap mens "silk" socks ($1/pair) as "I can't find anything better right now" bags for GFO. The mesh size is just about perfect for the task.Both
Filter pads and floss
Nylon stockings also an alternative
Is it completely safe to use this one? J saw these at Walmart cheap.Fairfield PF-10 The Original Poly-Fil Premium 100% Fiber Fill Box, White, 10 lb
Plop that in the search box in Amazon and you should be set.
You can also search for "Seachem Pond Matrix" for the bottom of the cups. They work great after the mechanical filtration/floss.
So I got some of the reef diapers and modified my (Red Sea Reefer 750XL) holders. ended up buying a second set just in cast I wanted/needed to go back to the others. Anyway, I used them and they worked fine. Saved me the issue of washing filters. Honestly its still a hassle so I stopped using any filters and watched my water quality every day like a hawk. Funny think nothing changed? Water is just as clear and perimeters didn't change at all? Now I use them occasionally when I feel I need to but otherwise just stopped using them all together. if anyone ever comes out with a roller that works in this sump I may sign up but for now no more filters for me. Too much work changing every three days.
