Wendel,
About that 80lb bag.. if it works we could do a group purchase and divey it up. Saving everyone a lot of money! I don't know if a hydrophonics store would carry high quality activated carbon though? Maybe for those inline house basement air filtration systems though
Steve,
I agree, the size of those little 4.50$ Walmart carbons are the perfect size for a change. Convienience over savings, eh?
While we are on the topic, how do you guys rinse your carbon? RO/DI water, tap water...? And are nylon stockings ok to use in the reef tank or what do you guys use?
