![]() Obviously replacement relates to volumes (tank/reactor) and what the water is actually like. I also monthly but just because. I'm not aware of any way available to us to detect when it's depleted. Is there a way?

![]() I think if you notice a color difference in your tank water when you change your carbon or do a water change you've gone too long.

![]() I Don't if thats totally correct as I have been doing a 25% every Saturday for the last two months, Now as for the carbon, this is the first time I have used it in this setup which has been up now for 20 months.

There is a test that reads UV transmittance through seawater. You read the DOC before and after the carbon filter.

Myself, like the rest of us, don't bother with some expensive test. I change it every 4 to 6 weeks.
