Carbon cloud ????
Thought I had rinsed the bag very well before adding the carbon to my filter Now I have a black tank. Will it hurt any of the fish or corals? How do I get rid of it?
I already removed the bag... What else.......?

Try mechanical filter, add some sponge or fiber to your filter. The skimmer will also remove some.

I had the same thing happen to me a while back. I got a bag of poly fiber for my filter replaced fiber twice a day and did 50% water changes daily till it was clear again, took 3 days. It was a FW tank with plants, so I'm not sure how corals will react. There was no loss of life, but giving your fish black lung sucks...
Good luck man

I had the same thing happen to me about a week ago. I added a bag a chemi pure and everything turned black. It went a way after about 3 hours. My clown fish and corals all made it through fine!
