xeneryx Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Hi Simon, I feel that you should place your filter wool in a way that covers all 4 sides. So the dirty things won't be able to pass thru. You'll have a hard time cleaning later on if it stuck at the bottom. I place my wool tuck nicely and the excess is all facing up. If you get what I mean. Your skimmer might need to lift it up. Might be too high to break in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
