I am not even going to bother with ROX, or a higher quality brand. Carbonless seems to be working for me, and I am really tired of losing coral, so I am going to leave it as is.

And not necessarily Kent alone. If I recall correctly, Coral Master/Snappy had a major SPS die off event a couple of years ago as well and the only thing he recalled switching up was trying some new carbon that was on sale on Boxing Day that winter. If it can happen to Kent carbon it stands to reason that it could happen to any carbon produced in a similar fashion ?!? This would explain so much! That is, you could be using carbon happily for months or years and then just happen to dump in a bad batch out of the blue!
The one good thing that has come out of this in my mind is the fact that Kent owned up to it an explained clearly exactly how carbon could be eff'ed up! If they had not come forward to acknowledge fault we'd still be scratching our heads and would probably never think to blame carbon for our woes. Unfortunately I'm worried about all carbons now :-|
