what do you guys use to put GAC in for a sump? i have heard panty hose. does that work?
If you are talking about the chemi-pure, it is pre-rinsed and even though you may get some "bleeding" it does not need additional rinsing really. When I change it out, I quickly swish it in a pail of removed tank water and into the filter. It has never been an issue....ReefRaff said:I tried it and I spent soooo much time trying to rinse the black dust out and made such a huge mess, that I won't be going that route again.

What kind of carbon are you using? Some really cheap carbon I bought at my LFS was horrible, it'd rinse it for 20 minutes and black would keep pouring off it.
