Total newbie here..... Tanks been up and running for 3 months - seeded from an established tank.
I got a bag of Chemipure this week, and put it in my tank. Then I read that it is not necessary to run activated carbon all the time, and may not be that great for fairly new tanks....so....I took it out. My question is....can I save it and use it later? If so, how should it be stored? It was only in my tank for 1 day. Should I put it back in and leave it alone? What are the benefits from running carbon? Do corals and anemones do ok with it? The reason I ask, is when I originally put it in, both my zoa/plays and my anemone didn't look happy.....but that may just be because my hand was in the tank....
Any advice is appreciated.
