Run filter floss in one( replaced regularly) bio balls, rings, and varied pads
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Ive heard that the floss clogs up quickly and drags the flow down alot?

I LOVE filter floss. It catches particles that sponges and whatnot can miss.
I use regular craft fiber filling from Walmart or any craft store. It's a lot cheaper and does the same job!
