Great Filter Media By Pili on 11/22/11
Pili would recommend this product to a friend
Used both in my fresh water, and reef tank. Goes right to work! If using in re-useable mesh bag, it's gotta be fine mesh. I had to put into nylon stockings.

Potent stuff By Jay on 11/5/11
Jay would recommend this product to a friend
I cannot stress enough before you hook up your new carbon/GFO reactor, check the reef calculator (for both the carbon and the GFO) I wasn't sure how much to add so I filled the container ~ 1/2 way full when I was only supposed to use 4 tbsp ! This stuff really goes a long way provided you don't waste it. And be advised to watch the videos; The carbon isn't supposed to tumble (at all) and the GFO is supposed to tumble only the slightest bit. There's a You Tube of a guy setting up the Carbon/GFO reactor and he made same mistakes I did at first so check the reef calculator prior to dosing. (Great stuff though, my tank has never been healthier! My ricordia are ~2" across!

I have always used carbon in my tanks with much success. The .8 is very effective.

Be carfule if using a reactor By Eric on 10/28/11
Eric would recommend this product to a friend
Like everyone else says, this stuff is good. HOWEVER, be very carful if using a reactor like the 2LF phosban reactor. The foam sponge filters will not stop this from getting in your display tank!!!! as far as carbon goes, these granules are very small...

Best carbon I have ever used By Marcus on 10/24/11
Marcus would recommend this product to a friend
This stuff really works!! Water is kept crystal clear. You don't have to use very much either, about half the volume of bituminous carbon.

I noticed a difference within hours of putting it in the tank. I can use 3 cups for about a month on my 240. Would highly recommend this to everyone.

I've got a 240 gallon tank and 3 cups will last me easily a month. I notice a huge difference in water clarity after an hour of replacing with new carbon.
