I have said this before and others may disagree....but- If it ain't
broke, don't fix it. If you have a reason for using carbon, use it.
If not, don't use it. I have never found a good reason for continuous
use of carbon. It is nice to remove chemicals you put in the tank for
specific reasons. As a general filter material, I can find no good
reason to use it. Putting it in a UGF uplift tube seems like a waste
of time and money to me.         John
