Stoned to death
From what I understand those stones are intended to be disposable.
Porous surfaces like air stones a prime microbial habitat. Even with proper disinfection you still run the likely hood of inoculating your next run with pathogens.
Though you'd imagine only aerobic microbes (mostly non pathogenic) would thrive on the stones there are many disease organisms that can tolerate higher DO levels. Especially when ample amounts of biofilm "organic material" is present for easy comsumption by the building colonies. I see the relatively mild investment of buying new stones as low cost preventative meds....you replace your nutes, why not your stones?
If you do use re-usable stones, be diligent about disinfecting. And if a disease does ever break out and take out a crop, no matter how expensive, replace your stones/diffusers to avoid future headaches.
BTW....Elite "Aqua Fizz" stones, though blue, should not be mistaken for those hyper compressed, pieces of shizzle that NGW, BWGS and Hydrofart offer. Use em side by side and you'll quickly see the difference. IMO
