Aquatik Filter Sock – 225 Micron Felt
Keep your aquarium sump cleaner and improve water clarity with the Aquatik 225 Micron Felt Filter Sock. Designed for reliable mechanical filtration, it captures detritus, uneaten food and suspended organic waste before it can circulate through your aquarium or accumulate around pumps and other filtration equipment.
The 225-micron felt provides a practical balance between effective particle removal and consistent water flow. Its coarser rating allows it to hold more waste before clogging than a finer 100-micron sock, making it a great everyday option for marine aquariums, reef tanks and other sump-filtered systems.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Clean the filter sock regularly once it becomes dirty or water begins overflowing around the top. Frequent cleaning prevents trapped organic waste from breaking down and releasing nutrients back into the aquarium.
The filter sock can be machine-washed and reused. Do not use detergent, fabric softener, bleach with added fragrances or other household cleaning products that may leave harmful residues.
Is the 225-Micron Felt Filter Sock Right for You?
Choose the Aquatik 225 Micron Felt Filter Sock when you want effective everyday mechanical filtration without the faster clogging associated with finer 100-micron socks.
It is particularly suitable for busy or heavily stocked aquariums where reliable water flow and practical maintenance are more important than ultra-fine water polishing.
