A new wife would cost me half the corals... :) not an option but a very funny response.

Does anyone make affordable dispossible filter bags so i dont have to clean them?

I have heard of a lot of people using the washing machine but have not built up the courage to try it myself. Everyone usually is paranoid with getting foreign additives in their tank and I do not see how a washing machine would leave no soap like residue on the sock.

I ave never used washing machine but use vinigar not bleach. the Bleach whitens the chlorophyll, vinegar wont make the sock white again but brakes down the of stuff clogging the filter.

Washing machine. two cycles. Use bleach in first one, nothing in second, no soap. Helps keep the washing machine clean too.
