These are filter socks - the filter effluent from the various pipes that enter a sump to keep the sump clean, and also to control micro bubbles.



The reason I sell them is becuase they are so effective. Other than my lumanarc reflectors, one of the best products dollor for dollar I have ever bought. I would recommend them to my own mother

My socks are actually dollar store knee high nylon stockings that I stuff full of filter floss and hang it off the pipe in my sump

Is there something better out there that I don't know about?

The diameter is 4" and easily fits on all pipes (I use it on 1.5" and 2" drains). The filter bag is approximately 14" long, 100 micron.

Price is 2 for $15. Should you need more (which most do) just email me and I can get you a price. I cycle through about 8 to justify putting them through the wash.
