I'm following along to gain some knowledge on filter bags myself. The title "possible GB" left me simply

Jon,

My opinion (which is based on my setup) is that Size 3 is better. The others are a bit long and would hang in the water too far. Sure you won't have to clean it as often because of clogging but my feeling is you should still clean it as much as possible because leaving it in the water would create nitrates anyway. I have size 1 now and I end up cleaning it as much as I would if I used size 3.

Just my opinion. It can be based on your setup though. The water level happens to be high on that side of my fuge.

hey mods not to get off topic but is it ok to start a poll on the filter socks with some type of feedback to better understand what might be good on our system example:i dont know if GPH plays a factor.
