Afragog in aquarium?

[ZanaZoola14]

What are the uses of afragog in an aquarium beyond having a large surface area for bacteria?

I remember reading it last time and deciding to add it to my tank; however, now I can not find any information about it.

Is there anyone else that uses it in their aquariums/filters?

I have never heard of afragog, and had to add aquarium to the search to find it. I don't use it as a bacterial substrate but I don't see why you couldn't.

I believe you are looking for Alfagrog. Looks like it is used with ponds. http://www.alfagrog.com/index.html. Should still work as a biological substrate.
