Default anyone have carbon in SE Calgary?

My husband works overtime, I have 2 kids stroller aged, and I have green water in my tank. I was wondering if anyone had some carbon I could toss into my tank? I don't have much cash right now, only about $5 If anyone could give me some, I can give it back later. I just want to get my tank clear looking again. Thanks. If you can, I live in Dover.

Dover is mighty close to golds... and you can get small containers of carbon, or prebagged carbon for relatively cheap...

yes, it is, but I don't have a car. I rely on the bus or a cab. and with 2 kids in strollers, I can't go while my husband works overtime. by the time he gets home, Golds is closed.
