Just give'em a good rinse and they'll be fine. I bought a used one a couple of years ago that was used in s/w. Never had a problem with them. I rinsed mine once a month and used the same sponges for a couple of years. As far as bio-filtering goes, i just filled all 3 baskets with ceramic rings. I rinsed them once a month too, only in tank water taken out during a water change. The sponges I just cleaned under tap water.
Contrary to Terrance, I would say go for the bio media, rings/balls types. They may look plain and does nothing, but in fact house a lot more bacterial as they have a very large surface area. Canisters are designed for them as well. If u wan, the first tray that comes in contact with water u can have sponge(mechanical filter) the rest would be bio media( biological filter).
I have a sponge filter thing on my inlet and my canister are all bio. Will upload a pic when I have time.
