About how long should I have a replacement filter pad sitting in the back of my HOB filter (along side the existing pad) before its built up enough BB to replace the original?
Also, for medicating purposes, I want to replace the carbon/mesh filter pad in my QT tank's Aqueon Quietflow 10, but there isnt a lot of space back there. Any suggestions? Is the fabric store pillow stuffing still an option even though theres pretty much only space for a pre-cut pad? I currently have 4-6 bio-rings in what little space there is, but Im not convinced thats enough to do anything so taking them out isnt unreasonable.
