    Socks and Skimmers

    i only have one sock with the plastic ring from the hidden reef. Ive washed it several times and it wont break. It is also the smallest one they sell. i think the bigger they are the easier they break.

    I also use the felt socks. You can easily get the material at walmart and make your own if you can sew. Which is what im doing. I rinse the heavy material out in the sink and just toss the sock in the washer with a little bit of bleach and they come out good as new!
