At first I tried 50 micron ones and, yeah they do clog up pretty quickly. I now use the 100 micron ones and they last about a week to 10 days. Then I just chuck them in the washing machine with some vinegar and they're good to go. I just incorporate changing them with my weekly maintenance schedule (which most of the time is about 10 days due to procrastination ).
