    I wouldn't think it's too much of a concern unless your dog has been sprayed/treated with some type of flea/tick spray or some other contaminant that would be on the hair.

    My wife's boxer is on the pill and I use to find his hair in my TO and tank all the time. Didn't seem to hurt the tank or corals. Now that I put a top on my top off and went to a 40g breeder for a sump i don't find it any more.
