FAQs

How often should I change my filter floss? Filter floss acts as a highly effective mechanical trap for dirt and debris. It should be replaced completely every 1 to 2 weeks, or whenever you notice it has become heavily soiled or if your filter's water flow rate begins to drop. It is not recommended to wash and reuse floss, as it loses its structural integrity and trapping ability once rinsed.

Where should I place this in my filter? For the best results, filter floss should be placed as the very last stage of your filtration process (after your coarser sponges and biological media). This allows it to act as a final "water polish" to catch the finest particles before the water returns to your tank.

Is this safe for delicate fish and saltwater tanks? Yes! This synthetic floss is completely inert, meaning it will not break down or leach any harmful chemicals into the water. It is perfectly safe for all freshwater, tropical, and marine setups, including those with delicate fish or invertebrates.
