Dymax Filter Socks – 4″

The Dymax Filter Sock is a long-lasting mesh sock for sumps and filter chambers. It catches fine debris before it reaches the rest of the system, helping keep water polished and protecting pumps and media. This is the 4″ size.

Key features of the Dymax Filter Socks

• Fine mechanical filtration
• Durable material
• For sumps and filter chambers
• Size: 4″

Picking a size and cleaning

Two sizes are offered, 4″ and 7″, which refers to the diameter of the ring at the top, so match it to the holder in your sump or filter chamber. The 7″ sock is made with ultrasonic seams for strength and has a high dirt-holding capacity. Keeping two socks of the same size lets you swap a dirty one straight away. To clean, turn the sock inside out, rinse off the debris with a hose, then soak and rinse again before letting it dry; many reef keepers machine wash them without detergent. Replace a sock once the mesh tears or stays discoloured after washing.

Good to know

Swap and rinse the sock every few days, as a clogged sock can overflow and reduce flow.
