Comments: This hydrocarbon was really great, my 120 gallon reef aquarium water crystal clear after 4 days use. Coral open longer and enhanced colour. I also use this hydrocarbon to my cleaner shrimp breeding tank. Amazing result. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Good Carbon at a Great Price by CHAD WEISBRODT

Comments: I have always been a fan of products from TLF, and their carbon doesn't disappoint. I change out the carbon in each of my tanks approximately once a month, and throughout each month it certainly helps keep the water clean and clear. So far I have not noticed any leaching or release of phosphates back into the water, a good thing. My only let down is that this is another brand of carbon which requires a decent amount of washing first to remove most of the carbon dust. Regardless, TLF Hydrocarbon is great for its price. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I did a complete review of this product on Reef Central. There have also been other professional comparisons of GAC. Nothing works as well as this carbon, so don;t settle for the cheap stuff because it won't do the job you are expecting. Most leach phosphate too. Check out the review for details. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Hydrocarbon 2 by KERRY ROBSON

Comments: This product works extremely well. I used 300 micron drawstring bags in the wet dry system of my 1200 gal aquarium. Only problem was that at 250ml of hydrocarbon per 50 gal as recommended the 4 liter container was good for only 800gal not 1600gal as it says on the label. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Two Little Fishies Carbon by GARY

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 7/5/2008 from LOS ANGELES, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: After reading an article on ReefCentral comparing several popular brands of activated carbon in terms of phosphate leaching, I decided to order Two Little Fishies brand. I've been completely satisfied with it. It does had a good bit of dust, so it is important to follow the instructions on rinsing to remove the fines. The quality of the carbon and the grain size are great. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: Good carbon, never had a problem since started using it over 2 years ago. A bit pricier than ESV which is an excellent alternative to TLF. Rinse it well, use proper filter bag and there will be no problem with the dust. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Awesome carbon by Mike

Comments: This is some of the best carbon out there. I only give it 4 stars though simply because it's SOOOO dusty! I was rinsing it out in my utility sink for quite some time to get a lot of the dust out. You may want to use a mask of some type to avoid breathing in the carbon dust. I blew my nose and although this sounds gross, carbon dust came out! Other than that, my tank is crystal clear! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: This product makes your tap water clean and clear. Easy to use and lasts a long time. Bigger tanks should use double the amount as recomended. If you have to use tap water in an aquarium. Use this product, it makes a big difference. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Crystal clear water by Mark Wuestenberg

Posted on 6/10/2007

Comments: After just 24 hours everything seems to come alive. Like a plant being watered that needs water. I even had a tini starfish on the carbon bag like it wanted in there. 1/2 cup per 50 gallons. Try it! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Get ready for dust by Mike C.

Comments: Although some of the most cost efficient carbon, it's almost impossible to remove all the dust. I switched from Black Diamond, and now there's carbon dust all over my sump, despite thorough rinsing. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
