Sorry but why should I pay ripoff prices at a pet store when I already
solved my problem with the briquettes that I already had around the
house and then used to grill some carne afterwards.

On a side note, if anyone out there uses a diatomaceous earth filter
in their aquariums, consider using swimming pool grade, it is WAY
cheaper.
