Hi All,

I am unfortunately dealing with a semi-toxic dino (prorocentrum) and wanted to place some charcoal in my small, 4.8g Eshopps Deskmate tank. However, I am a bit confused as to where I should be placing it to maximize filtering out the potential toxins in the water.

Separately, would a UV light help with the toxins at all? I assume not. In either case, I ordered some Chemi-Pure, but just wasn't sure where it should fit most effectively in my setup.

Thanks!

I ended up buying the media basket to put the charcoal bag in. And yes UV is usually a good option to run depending what you have.
