Hi John
it depends on many factors: tank size, pump gph, current water quality, overfeeding, etc.
If your water is really dirty, it may fill up relatively quick, but after regular use, you may have to rotate it less often, as clear water develops.

you should be rotating them at least once a week to keep nitrate down anyways.

to give you a more concrete example, i use the smaller one on my 30g and it takes about a week for it to fill completely. i rotate them once/week as suggested anyways, so it is perfect.

people who have 125+ gal.s tend to be satisfied with the 9x14 size. rotate once a week.

What type of material are these made with? How do I send payment? Paypal?
everything you need to know is on page 1.
It is made of 100% polyester. and i just found out from our manufacturer that it's made 100% from recycled water bottles! so not only is it reef-safe, it's super eco-friendly!. you're replanting the earth
rock on! :thrasher:


thanks for all the compliments guys!
