I've actually found that the Johnson/Jabsco in-line strainers to be pretty effective. I fill my loop with water that's been fed through a 10 micron filter first anyway, and so long as the loop was clean initially the blocks remain fine.

Still though, yes, "micro-structure" blocks do place a very high requirement for a clean system.
