christine2012 said:Do you run carbon in your filter?
Carbon can be added when tannins are leached and it will do a decent job at removing them. Its not going to make a HUGE difference and wont replace water changes. But it will help to some extent.
natman16 said:Pwc?? And yeh the filter has carbon inside the sponge
Yes, after about two weeks, carbon can start leaching nasties back into your water. You can get a jug of carbon and instead of wasting money on carbon bags you can just reuse the same bag. Just replace the carbon inside.FishontheRock said:If you do have carbon put in new stuff. It gets saturated and stops working after about 2weeks.
