Yes the filter sock can eventually get clogged...but it would take forever. The bottom of the sock is the first to plug up. Then the debris slowly builds up on sides. Most socks are 8 to 10 inches tall so it would take months to completely fill it or clog it......My preference is to contain the debris and not let it float into my sump. I dont want it clogging up the intake to my skimmer or reactors or my UV sterilizer which all draw out of sump.
