So what's the more cost effective acid washed carbon? I need something that I can buy in large quantity. I'm considering the TLF Hydrocarbon2, and emailed them about bulk quantities.



I'm not a fan of the reactor style that is a modified RO canister. I'm also not a fan of a product (in this case carbon) that requires "special handling" in order to use it. I'll stick with a carbon that's more user friendly.

How much bulk? You can reach out to Cabot corp too that makes the Rox 0.8. They will only sell in bulk.

Edit: just read the second part. Cabot Corp also sells larger grain sizes.
