Not to be a stickler, but Richard suggested the cheap alternative. I
don't think you can put a couple of teaspoons of lava rock in a
Whisper DE filter sleeve, and if you could, it wouldn't do what the DE
does. I'm all for using non-LFS stuff to save money, but if I suggest
an incorrect application, I sure hope someone here quickly corrects
me.

Oh,... I didn't suggest he add lavarock to a DE filter. I was talking
about Aquaclears or other HOT filters with enough apace to stick some
of these porous rocks behind or on the filter material. DE filters are
mainly water polishers as far as I know and that would be useless.

I hope we're not getting too 'politically correct' to be able to make
corrections on each other's posts without worrying about someone
taking offence, but just in case, Koi-lo, no offence intended ). ok?
..and if I make a mistake, feel free to go to town on me ;~).

You made no mistake. I didn't make myself clear.... my fault. :-)

Thanks Koi-lo. When I read something which might be confusing to
someone, I try to clarify it on behalf of the many (?) lurkers we could
have taking notes ;~).
