Filter Sock

[sackman]

Hello to all, like to know where is the best place to order socks for good price online and best way too clean them thanks

Washing machine with a cup of bleach, then another rinse cycle and a day to air dry. Thats how I clean mine.

As for buying them, I try and buy that kind of thing from my LFS. They have to stay in business somehow.

I'm looking for more socks too. So far the cheapest I've found is BulkReefSupply.com. 5 for $4.80 on a dozen different styles/sizes. With shipping I'm looking at $6.39 a piece. If you find better, let me know. I'm ordering in a few days.

Will do thanks

I spray mine off with a hose in my slop sink. I try to never leave the same filter in the tank for more than 4 days, 3 is better. Once every 4-6 months I wash them in the washer with bleach as described above. I keep 4 and cycle through them.

Yea , just went down to LFS and they one $12.99+ tax for the bigger bag. I am looking to get 12 to 24 deppending on the price online.

Yeah, I think I paid 11.99 for mine. But I only needed 4, and got them a few at a time. If your buying bulk you might consider asking the LFS if he can can get you bulk for a discount?
