i have a new exterior filter with bio balls as last part of filter gravity
flow system. do i clean off the bio balls when i rinse out the pad filter?

=====================
I have a similar set-up and YES, I do hose them off when I clean the filter
pads. I dump them into a very large plastic flower pot, flush them with the
hose and the scummy stuff runs out the bottom. I return them to the filter
and let it rip......
