It removes dissolved organics from the tank.Will activated carbon change water chemistry? Particularly calcium, magnesiu, trace elements?
This is just plain nonsense.Activated carbon removes essential nutrients from the aquarium water: Whether the activated carbon removes ammonia, nitrite and nitrate from the water column or not has always been one of the most heated discussions among the hobbyists. While some believe that adding filtration system with activated carbon traps the minerals and disturbs the water chemistry, some firmly believes that it does not create any trouble to the nutrients and can be added to new and struggling aquariums. At the same time, it is believed that activated carbon also removes trace nutrients and no matter how much fertilizers or boosters you add, they will probably get filtered out.
