Is Carbon Needed In My Fluval Edge

[leekinks]

Hello I have had a fluval edge since April of this year i have it running well and fish are fine.

My question is....


Do i need the carbon bag within this? I have read that you do not need it, but its recommended to replaced it every month or so, is tis a gimmick for repeat purchasing?

Thanks.

Lee.

Gimmick for repeat purchasing. Carbon is only ever needed to clear chemicals from the water (at the end of a course of meds for example). It only lasts for a short period of time anyways, then the 'activated' part is used up.

Cheers for that.

It saves me some cash.
