    Sorry D. Barta ... Second time I've inserted a question ... won't happen again.

    I've been running carbon constantly on a rotating basis 24/7 for a year now. I read that I should change half of it about every 4 - 6 weeks to preserve some of the bacteria that's grown on it (reef keeping book ... don’t remember the name off the top of my head). I've read just enough to make me dangerous ... but I'm still reading in hopes of wisdom. I keep two filter bags with about half a pound each and I replenish one of them at every water change. Is this another huge mistake I've been making for a long time? It seems as though there some very strong points of view on this issue so I'm pretty confused about it now.
