Follow from https://www.ukaps.org/forum/index.php?threads/52299/ which I figured was a new topic.
Everything I read about filter floss says it is bad and it will clog up, affect flow and kill your filter. What I can't figure out is whether filter floss would provide any additional benefit over a normal sponge in a pre-filter.
I have the Eheim pre-filter and have space to out in a extra section. I am wondering whether filling this with floss would achieve anything worthwhile (an extra section is a few £ and floss appears to be pennies if you buy it in rolls so cost isn't really a factor). I figured that even if this did get clogged then the other two sections would work just as they do now so nothing lost.
