What is the best way to clean and re-use my filter sock?


Thanks

rinse, turn inside out, wash with hot water and bleach, double rinse cycle. Air dry, soak in RODI, then it's ready to go.

How much bleach should I use?

I toss mine in the washer with a bit of bleach. After give it a real quick rinse and back it goes.

when I had my 150 fish and invert peninsula style, I would use 7" socks and would do this method except I turned mine inside and let them dry completely... u don't need much bleach at all, maybe a quarter cup if that...

I no longer use filter socks...

I toss my socks in with it and use a cap full of bleach

I just turn inside out and wash. I am not so sure I'd use bleach.

I've never had any issues using bleach. Again, double rinse, air dry, rinse with RODI. I just add a splash, like 1/4 cup
