Morning All,
Tank is up and running and is I believe around the mid point of its cycle.
I don't want to disturb the bacteria too much and am not keen to do any water changes as i have TSS in the tank. Water parameters are all reading fine, I have noticed however that my aquarium water has a few bits and pieces floating around in it which are a new feature. My filter is second hand and the pads were not replaced when I picked it up, media is the old media also. I am not too worried at the moment but was wondering..
Is it maybe time to replace the pads?
These are what I would be changing.

I also added two of these to the filter when it was started up.

Thoughts would be very much appreciated on when or if it is necessary to replace any parts on the filter.
Thanks!
