Noobreefer90 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 So as of right now only thing I have filtering my tank is a diy protein skimmer and a hang on back filter with just polyfil and was wondering if I should get some carbon from Walmart and toss it in pantyhose and throw it behind my polyfil Quote Link to comment

RayWhisperer Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Not Walmart carbon, that’s for sure. Any of the BRS branded carbon would be far superior to API, or some other brand from Walmart. 1 Quote Link to comment
Tamberav Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I use carbon in all my tanks in case of pollution and its a nice polisher. I agree, no walmart carbon. This is what you want to use: https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/bulk-premium-rox-0-8-aquarium-carbon.html You will need some fine media bags like these: https://www.amazon.com/Boyd-Enterprises-ABE16720-Chemi-Bags-Aquarium/dp/B00BUFTSV6 1 Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I use carbon in every tank. It removes toxins from corals and polishes the water. Not cheap carbon. Good activated carbon like seachem, kent, or brs. 1 Quote Link to comment
Militant Jurist Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I like Seachem Matrix carbon as well as Brightwell Aquatics carbon. 1 Quote Link to comment
