i dont use anything. but when i do use a filter sock every now and then, it only used for a hour or two. one day max for me mainly only use it for a few hours when cleaning. some do keep a sock though, but you will need to clean it at least once a week.

also do you think my bioballs attribute to the algae?
thanks
perhaps some. too many nutrients is what did it. but using bioballs allowed it to happen and removing them too.
