Filter roll options

[N2theUnknown]

Hey guys awhile back I had seen some people talking about filter rolls and some different options other than the name brand rolls being sold. I was sure someone said something about milk filter or something like that. I've tried googling it and am getting no where so I must be wrong in my thinking lol. I'm needing a roll 12" wide is there any options for this width?

Search for coolant filter paper.

Perfect I think this was one of the options that was mentioned. I'm assuming it's reef safe?

It would be an assumption. It's what the filter roller companies are using. The paper itself I'm sure is reef safe. The manufacturing process may, although unlikely, leave residual oil from the machinery that produces it.

So what your saying is run alittle extra carbon lol

What micron would be best? I was thinking 10 but an leaning more towards 20?

going to be difficult to find what you need perfectly cut to size on a nice roll. better off just buying the actual replacement
