Greetings. Rebedding my softener and spec calls for #20 Gravel. Does this meet that requirement?

It depends on the size of the retsin tank. A smaller tank according to some of the web sites don’t need any at all. Me personally like having gravel in my tanks. My water has more volume coming out of the sinks. I put 20 lbs in my 12X48” tank. 15lb in my 9x48” tank. I hope this helps you.

Any concerns with using in a freshwater aquarium as the substrate?

This is for water home water softener which has drinking water running through it. Probably ok for fish.

what is the diferance between fish aquarium rocks and these rocks

That's a great question! I was going to use this gravel in my water softner rebuild. When I got the resin out, there was no gravel in the bottom, so I didn't use it for the water softner. But I did add it to my softshell turtle's aquarium and it looks like the same stuff from the pet store! I don't think I would use aquarium gravel in my softner though...might end up tasting fishy? But that's just me....LOL
