Klir fleece filter, just preordered it last night, can't wait to try it out.
I've always been a multiple 7" filter sock person but after I tore down all my tanks in 2016, I realized that the basement sump in a fish room was not such a great idea in my situation. I could not keep humidity under control even with commercial inline exhaust fans, portable AC & dehumidifiers.
Fast forward to 2018 and I restarted one of my tanks but utilized an IceCap sump under the tank vs plumbing back into the basement. The IC sump has two 4" sock openings. I went from their proprietary 4" socks to better 200 micron stitched socks to Red Sea filter cups and it's still a chore to keep these guys flowing.
Hopefully the Klir filter will last a bit, they advertised "months" before changing and $10 replacement fleece but the reality is $14 replacement rolls and hopefully 30 days of use.
I like this since it seems like a plug and play for sumps that have an overflow design.
Will update once I get this in.
