how many ppl run carbon on there system does it help ne im building as 360 and wondering if runnig carbon would b benifital? ne opions

I asked the same question about a month ago and got mixed replies. Some use it and some don't. Some say it is good and others say there is no benifit. I put some in my skimmer (there is a small media basket for it) one a week or so. I don't know if it is helping or not. If I am not mistaken, I believe it will help with odor/clarity of the water.

IMO carbon is definitely beneficial in fish only systems. I run it.

Yep I usually run it once a month for a couple of days.

 

[tdragon]

for those of u that use it how often do u change it?

 

[tony detroit]

well you should probably at a weeks time, but realistically probably I change it 3 weeks, I'm a little on the lazy side.
