What kind of stuff is everyone using in their back chambers? I usually use some type of nitrate/phosphate reducing filter pad but it can get costly replacing them every other week. Right now I'm just using a filter sock with carbon, and some filter floss...anyone have any advice for what else I can use (not chaeto or anything live)?

Can someone say CHAETO:rollface: . This is all you need to control phos/nitrates.
