So I'm getting dressed this morning running late as usual for work and my wife is getting dressed as well. She is putting knee high's on and it dawned on me. Can we use knee high's with filter floss in it to act as a filter sock. Anyone ever think of this as well. it is a diy filter sock. No pun intended. Lol

I tried it cloged up in 1 day, the mesh is too fine.

:shhh: If you put them over your head, you can make large 'withdrawals' at the bank ... and buy the right socks!

I used to use knee highs, honestly worked like a charm and that much cheaper and I just tossed them when they were clogged. Worked fine IMO, but a filter sock is definitely much better .

Yes it would work, but you would definetly want the big girl size.. Otherwise there just like small filter socks..

you can get the right material at any hobby store that has fabric like michaels that have the material used in filtewr socks for real cheap.all u would have to do is sew it up.

the man has led's on his tank, and wants to use pantyhose for filter socks lol. Are pantyhose even cheaper than filter socks? or do you just want to take the ones your wife already bought and use them?

Id bite the bullet and just buy a filter sock before Id risk using my girls clothing for my tank, but then again I dont like sleeping on the couch.
