Carbon

[InxayonFinland]

Is it alright to use carbon in my nano?

 

[dskidmore]

Won't hurt anything. What do you need it for?

 

[roka64]

Carbon just keeps the water clear, right?

 

[melosu58]

Where would you be able to place it at. What type filter?

 

[InxayonFinland]

it will be in one of the slots in the back of my nano.

I`m kind of partial to chemi pure. It`s kind of like a resin and works better and longer than GAC

Carbon removes active chemicals in the water. This is a really good idea at the end of a course of medicine, or if something releases toxins in the water, or if you're painting somewhere in the house, but on a regular basis isn't all that useful. Most of the causes of cloudiness in the water is not related to the compounds that carbon removes.

Carbon is one of the best things you can use in the tank. Call it a safety net if you will. It removes unseen toxins and chemical components created inside the tank as well as in the air. I run carbon and a Polyfilter in my nano's 24/7.
