Which order?

[thomasina]

I have an Aquaclear filter. Comes with the sponge, carbon packet, (which I have taken out since it is 6 months old) and then the ceramic rings. I have ordered Purigen, and the bag. I want to put poly floss in it also. Now the question is: In what order do I put all this in? Going from bottom to top please!! Also, what keeps the BB in the filter so that I don't loose it? Thank you in advance!

Polyfill - purigen - ceramic rings.

If you decide to not use chem filtration in the future it would go:
Coarse foam - polyfill - ceramic rings.



The ceramic rings are what holds the BB so it never gets replaced. You can rinse it in tank water though if it gets really badly gunned up
