~neither the carbon or bags are the highest quality
very minimal odor and clairty control.
Marineland carbon is better simply put
dont regret buying, wont buy again
I used several of these packets in my skimmer basket. In just a few days, the water was crystal clear.
(Note, these smelled like awful rotten eggs when I opened the packet, but I guess it can be expected for damp organic materials packaged in an anaerobic container... unless they sent me used carbon?)
