In any case, I know that mechanical filters can become nitrate factories if the pads are left in too long. What do you think would be the longest amount of time I could leave a pad in there before I should change it?
Thanks for your thoughts/opinions!

we use some sort of mech filter on all our tanks and our client's tanks....it is a good idea as long as you clean it often.
