    Default Stupid ? about media bags


    0 Not allowed!
    So, I'm looking to grab some media bags to hold the ceramic media for a canister filter. They have some really cheap ones on ebay w/ free shipping that I'm considering. However, they have a zipper instead of drawstring. Would the metal on the zipper be a problem? THanks.

    If you don't know what metal the zippers are made from you probably shouldn't use them.
    When I go fishing I just place a sharp rock in the water and sit there waiting for all the dead fish to float to the top... Kingfisher
    Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen.
    I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
    Tolerance is a great thing to have, so is the ability to shut up.
    I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

    I bought a pack of 2 from Petsmart for $ .88, I wouldn't pay the shipping to buy them online. They are super cheap anyway.

    Most zippers these days are plastic, except for the heavy-duty ones. Is there any way you can contact the seller and find out? I would think if they were specifically made to hold filter media in an aquarium, they would be of entirely safe materials. Then again, it's best to find out for sure than to assume the obvious. If in doubt, and you can't find out, perhaps your local LFS has some with ties instead of zippers.
