The Question is does any know if "Baby Savers" are still manufactured or

where a good nylon yard can be bought? >>

There are many varieties of acrylic yarn available for various knitting 
purposes. Unfortunately, I believe all nylon yarn is now made for carpet 
manufacture and is not appropriate for mops. I have found many of the acrylic 
yarns to be perfectly acceptable, even without problems on boiling. However, 
some others have not been as pleasant to deal with. The fish don't seem to 
mind which it is, they still prefer live Java moss, in most cases. But the 
mops provide hiding places for the females. For S.A. annuals, I now prefer 
Fluval Peat Fiber made for filter use. So do the fish.
