I don't see any problem, as long as you clean them between so as not to cross contaminate, especially if you use copper in your freshwater to treat parasites and you have inverts in the SW.

If it were me, i'd pick up another algae scarper - they're cheap enough. As for the Python siphon - rinse and use! I've had mine since the early 1980's - a great tool IMO
