question about filter media
I have a Whisper filter and whenever I rinse the floss out it is black. Is filter media supposed to turn black? I empty the carbon out of it before I use it. I just put a new one in last week and I rinsed it today and it's just black and it doesn't look any different even after I squeezed it out several times.
Thanks
