That stuff looks pretty good.
EDven if you just used it as normal media and tested your nitrAte levels to make sure they were ok and still did a PWC when needed.
I know a lot of people don't mind doing the PWC's but we have water restrictions here anyway of conserving water is always worth a look.
Another thing to consider is the fact that you want to try and keep everything as stable as possible. You can have a tank with high PH, temp and nitrAtes but as long as it's kept stable most fish should be fine.
Water changes mean your nitrAtes go up, then down and repeat constantly.
Something like this might help keep that last factor as stable as most are able to keep the rest.
