OH SNAP! I had no idea they had these! I gotta get me some. The knitting mesh works yes, but one thing I find is that stuff gets trapped inbetween the existing perforated plate and the knitting mesh that you put over that plate. It drives me nuts cuz the holes don't line up so there is the high potentially for clogging of organisms like sponges and crap. A dedicated meshed plate like this would be ideal in my experience with these reactors. Should reduce maintenance. Gonna get me some 'o that!
