Beat the crap out of them and don't be gentle. lol. There is no special way of cleaning them. You don't need to worry about BB or rinsing them in tank water. Just clean em good.

Right on!
I'm hoping my washing machine will do the beating for me.
Gonna give it a try this weekend

She wont know if you don't say :naughty:
 
I clean mine in my bath tub. The water comes out strong and you can make a big mess. takes me 5-10 minutes max to clean the whole filter.
 
Gave mine a rinse the other day. I put them in a five gallon bucket with tank water, put that in the tub then stepped on them a bunch of times. Drained water and filled bucket one more time w/ tank water and did it again. Practically new.
