![]() copied from wikipedia ...
" Carbon filters are most effective at removing chlorine, sediment, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from water. They are not effective at removing minerals, salts, and dissolved inorganic compounds." Bio pellets remove phosphate and nitates. I would run them all if you can ,filter the water as much as you can. Do you have a sump? have room for a small bio reactor ? Dr. tims site sells some packages with a reactor , pellets and some benificial bacteria ... might besomething to look into. http://store.drtimsaquatics.com/Mini...Kit_p_452.html |

![]() Please do not try pellets if your tank is not at least 6 month running. Pellets can strip a system super fast of both good & bad stuff causing more issues. I would say that it might be majority caused by tap water & long light cycle. HA can be a real *itch to get rid of & needs patience for it to go away. If you just added Rowa it will take some time to take affect.
