hallo if your using a sieve then you wont need brushes . i.v just fitted a sieve and i'm wondering wether to put static k1 into 1st bay or fluid ??

Fishy,

You`d want your first bay to be fluidised really, then the second static bay would collect your `fines` before the water returns to your pond.

If you go the other way round, you`ll be quite upset at how ineffective your filter will seem, and at just how much crap goes straight through the filter.

Up to you though,
