Re:Peat and Activated carbon.
Hi,
I use to do that. It seemed the carbon removed much of the tanins from the peat. Without carbon the water was brownish, with carbon clear, but the carbon got dirty fast . I think carbon undoes all the good of peat.
Carbon has been associated with Hole in the head disease.
Carbon seemed to raise my ph also. (when used by itself, I could not get the ph to lower very easily )

I think I better not use it rather I’ll control the quantity of peat.
