Where to get filter pad material?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Complete Filter Systems blows chunks. Still not shipped, and no idea when they can ship. I ordered from Grainger, and I will be picking the same stuff up in an hour for a bunch cheaper. I am still going to check out the Matala pads too when I get a chance. They look beefier and more of a permanent washable filter which would work good in between sections in the sump.
 
I found a local pond shop and bought a 4x8' sheet of heavy porous pond filter material and have cut to size pieces for my sump and FX5's.
The 4x8 sheet was 100$ and it will last quite a while.
 
I bought stainless steel mesh with varying hole sizes and have been using it for years. I just hose it out on the patio and it's clean and ready to be used again.
