What do you put in your Emperor?

Related Question

I am trying to find a more affordable way to maintain my emporer, and since the filtration packs are WAY to expensive, I was wondering if I could by a spare media basket for my Emporer online, I've looked around and couldn't find the part, do they sell it?
Sorry about the thread hijack, but I thought this was to similar a question to start another thread
 
I've found filter floss at my grocery stores pet section.

"I was wondering if I could by a spare media basket for my Emporer online, I've looked around and couldn't find the part, do they sell it?"

If you still have the manual that came with your filter, maybe you can find a part number and order it. I bought my 280 around 5 years ago, this was the part number I got from my manual (PR 2150 Emperor Media Container). Maybe that will help.
 
www.petsolutions.com sells spare media baskets. I've been considering going over to double media baskets as well, and using filter floss or some sort of sponge material.

From what I've seen all filter floss is the same, and you can find it at most fish stores, or at any of the online dealers like petsolutions, big als, or that fish place. I also use filter floss in my fluval 04's to polish the water a little better than the sponges do.

I used to put floss in them.

Now they're collecting dust in my garage.


I'll gladly take them off your hands for you if you like.
 
I have 2 Emperor 280 filters and a Fluval 404 canister on my 100 gallon. In the emperors I just use the emperor cartridges and a media container full of carbon.
