Question on Media Placement in Canister Filters

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
:iagree:I usually have a carbon filled bag, then filter pads. Its usually good to go from coarse to fine on the mechanical filtration related to water flow. And then theres some filter floss followed by the bio media.
