Filter Floss??

[FishyFishy!]

I use a lot of filter floss, and since Big Als shut down, I havent been able to find any. Does anyone know where to find any? Pisces has some...but they want $5.99 per linear foot for it.

I really miss that big roll of floss that was at big als. Can you get sheets of the stuff at a fabric or hobby store?

Fabric stores should have it, or upholstery shops (this would be a cash transaction most likely). Just ask for Dacron padding

bigal's is still online so you might try ordering it.

Just a thought.

My wife gets mine from a quilting shop. I get a bag the size of a hockey bag for $50 or so

Just make sure it is 100% polyester.

Big Als was good for a few things! First time for me this year that I didn't stock up on salt on Boxing Day too. I'm in the same boat, I use a lot of this stuff on my FW tank and I don't have much left of my current roll.

Someone once told me they were getting their filter floss at The Sleep Boutique (not far from where UFA used to be). But I never followed up on that myself, so I don't know for certain. Bt could be worth a visit. Link - http://www.sleepboutique.ca/custom-specialty-foam/ (in th epicture you can see something that looks like it could be the right stuff..)

Anyhow if you find a place please post where you got it. Thanks!

That stuff is more like cotton batting. Not sheets of filter floss. I find that stuff useless.

Found some on amazon....and it was from big als online! Lol. But it doubled in price. What used to be $10 is now $20. But worth it.

Good to know. I bought some yesterday for the first time. Now i regret it. Ha!

you can still buy their Filter Floss from Big Al's online store, and if you spend a certain amount it's free shipping. I just stocked up on my filter floss. $20 for 20 sq ft, I can't remember if that was the same price I paid in the store though

Concepts has floss in. Saw in on top of there discus tanks.

Walmart in the crafts section... wayyyy cheaper!

Be cautious of the Walmart stuff....some of their stuff has had a chemical sprayed on it to make it more fire retardent. Check if it has wording about that on the package.
