Wondering if anyone is running a sediment filter after GFO and / or carbon to help with dusty fines. I give my media reactors a good rinse and collect the first 20 seconds or so outside the tank. Wondering what measures others are taking
 
Since I use media bags in my reactors I only rinse the bags before I put them in the reactors. Rinse and let all the water drain out. 1 final rinse before dropping them in.
