$%^$^$& Carbon

[Willie_6]

So I have decided to run some carbon in my tank. I picked some up from LFS and a nice little bag to put it in. The bag ties closed or so it is supposed to. I drop it in the fuge and start to see pieces of carbon floating out of the bag. I figure this isn't good and manage to remove the bag with only a few more pieces escaping.

Can any one tell me how to run it without me losing it all in my tank?


How much should I put in a bag at a time?

One way that was suggested to me was to put it in the foot of pair of womens stockings and tie the top in a knot. Make sure there is no laundrey detergent in them before you drop them in though.

I do that too. I have my wife buy them for me though
I just throw the whole thing away when the carbon is done.
