Where to Buy Vortex Diatom Filter Media
Sometimes between water changes I filter the water to ultra clear by
using my Vortex Diatom. Its hard to find the diatom filter media at LFS and some of the online e-tailers prices seem to be out of whack. I assume that the diatom filer media used in spa is the same as what is sold for the Vortex. Anyway does anyone know if that is correct? I can buy this from http://www.lesliespool.com for about $1.00 a lb. Anyone have any experience buying diatom filter media from a pool/spa supply store?

I use the stuff from the pool/spa supply all the time. It is exactly the
same stuff, and way less expensive. "Rick" wrote in message om... Sometimes between water changes I filter the water to ultra clear by using my Vortex Diatom.

I use the same bag of DE for both my pool filter and my aquarium filter. -- Toni http://www.cearbhaill.com/discus.htm
