Is Blue Aquarium Filter Material OK To Use In Carts?
Is the blue aquarium filter material ok to use in Carts. I read some posts about people using it with straws. Does it mess up your atty at all, like melting or clogging your atty up?
I would like to try it since it would seems it has better flow than the packing inside pre-filled carts.
Thanks

I use the Blue Foam almost exclusively. Bit of cocktail straw and 'slug', and that filler 'wool' is gone!

Seems to work good and last for me..
I use cartomizers almost exclusively so its not an issue anymore for me. They have poly fil in them anyways..
Cheap Poly at walmart called batting material. Huge bag for several dollars..

I tried almost everything... straw mod...spring mod.... those tended to leak fluid in my mouth a bit too often. Finally found some BLACK foam used in certain vacuum cleaner filters, very similar to the aquarium blue foam, but a bit finer (smaller nooks and crannies). This has been working perfect for me... holds a lot of juice, no need to use straws, plugs or springs. Just fill the whole space with uncompressed foam, and it's working good. Never got a leak in the mouth since using it.

See my signature below. Full filler is out and the new trend is the plug. Black foam with smaller cells in a full cart sounds like it will trap alot of fuild down in the cart.

Chipcurtis, is your black foam wicking completely dry in between refills?
