Notice you've linked to the 3 plus Fluval: I thought most people were using / recommending 2 plus?

Hi I have been using the FLUVAL FOAM MOUSSE 2 PACK
204/205 304/305
YOU CAN GET IT AT ANT PETSTORE FOR $5.95 FOR 2 SHEETS
THEY ALSO HAVE 105 AND 405 ALTHOUGH IT APPEARS THE 205/305
MIGHT BE THE BEST AS FAR AS DENSITY
THEY HAVE BEEN HOLDING UP VERY WELL
Re Fish Filter:
It prevents any fish in the juice from reaching the atomizer chamber.
That's only been a problem for me with the salmon-flavored juice...the little buggers are always swimmin' upstream on me.
Hey check this out:
From: Manufactured Fibers - Polyester, Acrylic, Acetate, Nylon
RAYON, from cellulose, has many of the qualities of cotton, a natural cellulose fiber. Rayon is strong, extremely absorbent, comes in a variety of qualities and weights, and can be made to resemble natural fabrics. Rayon does not melt but burns at high temperatures.
How high does the atomizer burn at? It probably doesn't get above 100° right?

Scv--the limited reports that we have state the atomizer temp is around 250 degrees C. Some report higher. But it is way highter the 100 degrees!!!! For petes sake it is 85 degrees outside today--LOL---Sun
That's strange it doesn't seem to get that hot... Anyways here's a little PDF that has some good information on Rayon. I think I'm going to try using some just to see what happens. I'll have to wait thought because I don't have any juice. The link below states that Rayon will catch fire at approx. 400°.

On the tea-bags, I washed, cleaned and cut up some used ones, but they still have that tea-stained sepia colour. They don't have any tea odour though and look pretty clean and tidy otherwise. Presumably these are fine to use?
I like the 'little pillow' idea.... Teabag encased fluval! That would do the trick!
I am trying the pillow now in a 510-c so far it`s great
could you please put up some pictures so i could see how to do mine if not its ok ill keep trying until i get it
It's been mentioned, although I can't recall if anyone had much success. The filter would be far too dense to wick something as viscous as PG very well so it'd need to be teased apart, and I think that would be difficult to do consistently. If you decide to give it a try please let us know how it turns out.
I'm trying teabags and so far so good. I tried to get pics, but the close-ups were too bad to use. It's a decent camera and I've never had a problem with any other type of pic but these are un-usable. Anyone have a suggestion for better closeups from a canon powershot? I've seen such good shots posted by forum users that I assumed it was easy.
I use about a 1.5X1.5 inch piece of bag, roll skinny like a carpet (per someone's suggestion) then put in the cart (I've done on both a 901 and 401) and cut off to the right height. My teabags were new but also a little stained, even after boiling, hopefully no oils left in there to wreck the atty. Just FYI, Celestial Seasonings bags burn pretty cleanly, no smell or sign of melting.

Work in an institution, we use very cheap brown paper towels that really want to not keep moisture in. Right now I am trying it and it seems to work very well. Just have to experiment with tightness of the roll. But so far so good.
My old Canon has a Macro mode. If yours has that also, it will give you great close-ups provided the lighting is good (you'll be too close for the flash to work).
