    Carbon filters vs. Floss filters...

    Hey guys, this is sort of a continuation to my last thread, i was just hoping to get some more advice, thanks for your help in advance; the quote is copied but my response is new. Quote: " 1) If your filter has carbon in it, don't bother cutting it out. It's not going to hurt anything, and...
