Roller filter recommendations for JBJ65

[Bounce House Corals]

Hello all,

Hope for a recommendation on a fleece filter roller that could replace my 4” filter sock on my JBJ 65- and one have this tank and successfully updated it to house a filter mat?

I picked up a pair of used KLIR-4 rollers, and I'm going to try adapting them to my JBJ 65. Since the JBJ uses standard 4" socks, it shouldn't be too difficult. How hard could it be, right? RIGHT?! :D

How do you like this set up? Interested in doing this to my jbj?

Vast ocean on alieexpress.

Nano reefmat is a nice roller but the filter is very narrow (5.5cm) the vast ocean uses an 8cm ..

And its about half the price.

Do realise that, when switching over to a filterroller. You reduce the flow on your pump. The higher the flow the less dirty the filterrol gets and the faster its empty.

I got a pair of KLIRs off of facebook marketplace for my JBJ 65 - I can't seem to figure out a good way to mount the water level sensor. I've just been advancing them manually, any ideas from your install?

Did this work out for you?

No, but I did get a pair of 4" drop-in rollers (with "RollBot") from iSeaLive, and they work great. I didn't have the factory sock holders anymore, but I 3d printed some that work great.
