stick with ss 316 grade, depending on the ph it can degrade the aluminium. look at granger or another industrial supplier or even [Ebay Link Removed] would u put other metals that can possibly leach into the water in, prob not same idea. always avoid things that can leach and have negative effects on your fauna/flora.

I'd avoid aluminum as well.

I generally try to avoid anything metal, but am okay with high grade stainless (300 series or something from what fragments I can remember...) and titanium.

Plastic mesh is pretty easy to get at most craft stores if that would work for you. It's pretty cheap as well.
