you can probably leave the carbon in there.

Removing UV is to help the bacteria stays in the water column and eventually make it into the reactor and seed the pellets.

removing phos ban is to have the nutrient in the water to feed those bacteria that you want to grow.

I am 1 week into the bio pellets, and water just turn cloudy. Which is normal due to the population boom of the bacteria in the system.
