I haven't run any bio since I put in the mod. But it didn't collapse completely or break away from the inside. It just started to pull in a bit due to the vacuum because of the clog. Actually, that was a pretty good test of the filter -- since it didn't disintegrate after being completely stopped up, I think it'll hold up nicely. I haven't thought about it until now, but I'll autopsy the filter and see how it's put together and how it held up since I put it in. It'll be a little messy, but it will be fun.

I'll get some pics of the autopsy later.

I started taking things apart when I was a kid. My Dad still tells folks about the time I found a screwdriver and tore apart his "hi-fi" at two years old.
