Great idea. They fill is polyester fiber. Just read carefully to make sure the Walmart stuff is not tread with any antibacterial or other stuff. On,y other thing I could think of is size of fill. If fibers are too small may be issue
Otherwise great idea

Just picked up another bag from Walmart today, only $3.50. I actually like it better then filter pads. I find the filter pads make my skimmer go crazy.

Way better than the 3.99$ for 4 oz you get at PetSmart
Any additive, it says hypoallergenic

Exactly what I was looking at. I was also looking at the quilting pad from the same company. Way cheaper than even BRS. Every penny counts when you're laid off from work.
I'm such a cheap ******* that I have cut up worn out outdoor furniture cushions for filter material. This spring I'll probably make a filter for my fish pond with them. In this hobby we can take relatively simple concepts, like a sump, and make them really expensive.
I’ve been using it for years, no issues. Says 100% polyester on the bag. I think polyester is just hypoallergenic natually
That’s strange, it doesn’t seem to bother mine but it’s only a nano skimmer
Now I'm having a heck of a time tuning the skimmer again. It's a Somatic 60. I almost feel like I really never had it perfect. When it skims I get wicked thick sludge. But not much liquid in the cup. If I try to get wet skim mate. Anything and everything seems to make the skimmer explode.
