Yes floss can help polish the water but proper water changes will still need to be made.
Oh for sure I'm doing a water change tomorow or the following I'm just trying to get the little flutters gone so it looks like the fish are floating was easyer with my 150gal then this 75 gal for some reason

Awesome thank you what do you think is better ceramic rings or bio balls with mini sponges inside

For space and don't have to worry about it clogging up with debris is the Ceramic Rings. A would place them in a mesh bag so during water changes you could clean them off with the aquarium water you removed if you use buckets. Never rinse them with tap water because the Chlorine will kill most or all the live beneficial bacteria on it.

I have replaced all my filters in the fishroom with Aquaclear but I did have Aqueon filters for a bit. You can use the sponges sold for AC filters or any filter sponge really. I have bought sponge material for sumps and cut them to size. Aquaclear uses a basket of sorts to direct the water through the sponge that is placed at the bottom of the basket and then up through what ever other media is added. With the Aqueon filter I put the sponge vertical on the right hand side and the other media material on the left hand side. I insert enough sponge that it fits front to back and low enough that if it clogs the water won't overflow the filter.
