I have a question. Just got my 404, It's the Sh!@#. What kind of media is everybody using?

Just so you don't think we are ignoring you, I don't use one of those myself so I can't comment on the filter media use. Sorry. Very Happy

<-- uses 404 and puts either one of these in and then those ceramic things to catch/make bacteria.

I fill up two baskets to the top with the media. I never have any problems.
I did try the spray bar and did not like it, save your money.

I made my own spray bar, I had some clear hose that I wasn't using and I plugged one end with a marble and I made a line of holes and attached the other end to a water fountain pump and there you go, a spray bar, cheap, works, what else do you need??? Very Happy
