i hate my driftwood

[Twicksisted]

ive got quite a lot of driftwood in my tank... I run lots of carbon and it seems to take roughly 2 months to get rid of the tannins (all depends on how much carbon you use and refill)

carbon...?

 

[Thalan]

Activated carbon. The little black things in filter pads.

 

[Twicksisted]

yeah you can also buy it in bags... then you can put as much as you want inside media bags in your filters...

Use Seachem Purigen, it will work really quickly and is rechargeable as well. Way better than activated carbon.

i think u will find that you will get best results if you go down and get some seachem purigen from your lfs, i know that petcity has it, it will clear your water the best and u can regenerate it as well, i've found it way better to use than carbon, just make sure u get one of those bags for it too

When you buy it it comes in a special net bag, you just place it in your filter.
