The lower the micron rating, the more floating debris it removes, hence the filter socks clog up faster. Many hobbyists have both which allots them to swap out their 200 micron socks from time to time. How often should I changes the filter socks? It depends on tank load, but generally you want to change your filter socks once a week or every two weeks. The more often you change, the better your water quality; it removes organic solids before they break down in aquarium. Is it better to use a longer sock or a shorter sock? Ideally the filter sock should be hanging in the water without touching or laying on the bottom of the sump. If a shorter sock is above the water line, there may be more noise as water drains from the sock side and splashes. What is the glaze finish on the sock? The socks are untreated and are designed with a 100% aquatic safe outside glaze. We do recommend giving them a quick rinse to prevent foam build up. Will these socks work with a reefer? No, We have personally tested our filter socks in the reefer sliding shelf sock holder. Our material is thick and our plastic ring is slightly too large to drop through the hole in the shelf.
