Any Reason Not To Use Pond Filter Media In Aquarium?

[jnms]

Is there any reason not to use pond filter media, in aquarium external canisters?

Like sponges and other media? No reason not to at all, it's the same stuff on a larger scale.

Yep, just sponges. And great, thanks for the reply.

Works out a ton cheaper!!

 

[soybean]

Certainly does!

I always buy the stuff for pond filters.
The cost of new filter pads and the like for aquarium filters is crazy.
