How Many Filter Socks Do You Keep on Hand

How are you guys going about washing them?
Rinse, put in small bucket with cap of bleach and hot water let it soak for about 30 min, rinse and then put back in bucket with hot water and a cap of prime, soak for 30 min and then airdry.....marinedepot has a video on it.
 
My sump has triple socks and I keep THREE sets of 3 socks
 
My sump hold three 4"x 8"socks. I change every three days and I've accumulated about 30 socks. Rinse them with the water hose. When I get down to 6-9 socks I wash the dirty ones in the washer with a little bleach and an extra rinse cycle.
 
I bought a box of about 25 I bought online but hardly ever use them because I ha e so much flow they fill up nearly every other day
 
My sump can hold 2 socks but I will only run 1 sock on the full syphon drain and only a couple weeks a month to polish the water.
