Should I let my cabron tumble in this or fill it full so it doesn't move?
Question by: Jackie M. on Sep 27, 2018, 12:17 PM
Jackie,
We would not recommend letting carbon tumble in any media reactor as the soft material will grind itself into dust over time. It would be best to only use the recommended amount of carbon based on your tanks water volume and sandwiching the carbon between the included sponges at the top of the reactor. Carbon has very small pores that can clog quickly and using more than the recommended amount of media would not give you more effective filtration over time. The upward flow will keep the media at the top and the sponges will help prevent tumbling. You can use our media calculator to find the recommended amount for your tank. If you have any other questions, let us know.
