Correct me if I am wrong, but Ammonia carb is for Fresh water tanks.

Whats the difference between just "carbon" and ammo-carb and why only occasional carbon?

The ammo carb has an ammonia removal agent in it that does not work on SW.

I say occasional because Carbon strips out a lot of things and I dont think it should be run 24/7 unless you do a ton of water changes. (You should be doing a 5-10% water change minimum, weekly)
