    I did the same thing--small filter sock-I used to think I had tiny debris in my water--turns out it was the micro-bubbles. As soon as I added the sock--presto--crystal clear!!!!

    check ebay---I use e-shopps brand because of price--I think they are all made at the same place and re-packaged--they are pretty much all the same. I use 200 micron
