Okay, i was on a hunt for pot scrubbers on every dollar store unfortunately i they don't have it anymore but i found this instead. scouring pads at 99cents store, what do you guys think? Is it the same thing and Is it safe for the fishes?

Note: there is no warning or any chemicals stated on the packaging.

Pot scrubbers are already alternatives to bio balls. Just buy them on eBay cheaper than the dollar store.

Even though they may work looks like they may break down , whereas bio-balls and plastic pottscrubbers won't..
 
Btw I have been using the same bio-balls over 20yrs :). Only issue is that they need to be agitated in aquarium water.

I bought this a couple weeks ago. It's 96 pot scrubbers for $12.84 after taxes and they ship free to any local lawn and garden store that carries their product. Takes 5-10 days depending on when you order and where you live. Make sure you have a garbage bag and a 5g bucket handy. There is a lot of trash!

Good deal! Buy this for sure. 96 scrubbies don't see that much you need a trash bag and a bucket?

If you go to the link, the bag and header card they are packaged in is how they come. So 12 bags and header cards makes for a bit of trash and the scrubbies go into the 5g while you're unpackaging them out of the box.
