I too have never had an issue but as I stated earlier, this is the only thing I have changed in a long time.

The Kent Reef Carbon is what I have used for a couple years now (got a bucket for cheap lol). I do boil carbon in RO/DI before using. Have you tested parameters lately? Did you turn the reactor off? Any difference with it off?
