Carbon Filter

[5teady_2012]

if you read the description it says..


Chemical filtration: Special activated carbon to eliminate water clouding and unpleasant odours
EasyCrystal® Filters are extremely easy to clean: Replace the filter cartridge every 4 weeks. No need to rinse the filter medium, no more wet hands!

i will say, after doing a treatment you should ALWAYS replace the carbon sac with a new one.

My filter has 2 diffrent filters, 1 of them is a white and green, combined and inside of them is the carbon bits. this replace every month it says

The other is the biofoam filter, this is the one i replace rarely it says.

The point im getting at is, which filter to remove, and it seems its the white and green one as this has the carbon in it,, but i have got some of these cartridges without the carbon in..

One box has the carbon bits in them, and the other box of filters has the cartridges without the carbon

So i guess that the ones without the carbon i can put in and still treat the tank right?..

Thanks

Il start again as i think i have explained it wrong and have some more info now on my filters...


In my filter there is a crystal clear cartridge pack, in it, it has active carbon..

Now i want to treat my tank for fin ro (very mild case of it onone fish)

I have 2 boxes of filters, both of them are exactly the same cartridges, one has the active carbon in them, and the other box has not got the active carbon in them..

If i want to treat my tank, im guessing i can use the filterpack that does not have the active carbon in them right?

Maybe that was explained better

remove all carbon when treating your fish with meds. when i treated my tank with meds i just removed the carbon sac and left it runing on the spondge.
