pdxmonkeyboy Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Brand new 4"x14" mesh filter socks with plastic ring. These are the stronger and more durable monofilament mesh. Filters about the same as a 200 micron fabric sock but they are soooooooo much easier to clean.. Flip, rinse, put back in. $4 a piece cheers Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-3 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 About time....lol How do these do with microbubbles? So they ended up being a little more than $3? No big deal. Just excited if these work better and are easier to clean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ReefBox Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I would take 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdxmonkeyboy Posted December 17, 2017 Author Share Posted December 17, 2017 I'm not sure if they would filter out microbubbles, but 100 micron is pretty small.yes, i have them now. i was impressed with the quality, i spent extra to get the monofillament material. They are also sewn to the plastic ring, not pressed and glued. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Sadly, I realized I am set up with the 6 inch socks so won't be able to take advantage of this. Looks interesting though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willapa Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I'll take 4 if any are left. Have to say washing filter socks is my least favorite part of the hobby.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willapa Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I picked up some today and the mesh is so fine you cannot begin to even see the weave. I would highly doubt a micro bubble would make it through. Looking forward to putting them in.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdxmonkeyboy Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 my setup doesnt really produce microbubbles but when starting and stopping the pump there were bubbles trapped in there. 100 micron is smaaaaaal.

pdxmonkeyboy Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Going going gone. R3 picked up the remaining socks so it seems that the willamette valley reefers are no longer going to be washing their socks in the laundry. willipa, have you tried the socks yet?

Willapa Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Oh yea, they're pretty sweet. My felt socks are in the aquarium gear graveyard pile. My sump stayed pretty clean with the felt ones so we'll see if I get some detritus buildup. May actually help my chaeto though.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
