I have a 30 gallon tank with a marineland bio-wheel set up. I have 2 of the filter media/charcoal inserts. I put a second one in after the filter had been up and running for 4 weeks with one. I put a new one in ever 6 weeks or so and leave one of them still in and then rotate which insert I change.
I have read here about not throwing filter media away unless it is falling apart ...does this apply to the inserts for the filters as well ? Or should I be stuffing some other type of media in the HOB filter that I never change and continue rotating the inserts like I have been ? I havent had any major issues with the tank but just want to know if I'm doing this right.
