Hmm I never tried the hc but i do the math base on the BRS calculator and it works out on my 165 gallon is that it will cost me 11 per change (2 cups) for normal and 14 per change for HC(1 cup).

The normal is also very easy to change, just like carbon very much for me.

I used about 2 cups on mine and it last for roughly 6 weeks
