The fish tank filter cartridge looks broken open is it still safe to use?

Jan 27, 2009 by ktrainx3 | Posted in Fish

I just opened a bag of "bio-bag" disposable filter cartridges for my whisper fish tank filter but one of them has a slight hole in it and a little bit of carbon is coming out.. is this still safe to use? thanks!

Yes the carbon is just charcoal really. Its not a big deal if it gets in the tank. It will float and even if it sinks it will be sucked up when you vacuum at the end of the week. Also its non toxic to fish.
Good Luck.

I think my fish is sick.. - Aquarium Advice - Aquarium Forum Community

by hortoholic

I think he is really stressed as well. I also noticed that his tail fin is slightyl torn. But as for ammonia, is there something I need to test for amonia as my test strips do not measure amonia. Do I need a test kit for amonia as well? or should I buy an amonia reducer chemical? You have to pardon my as fish are not my expertise and I am only a bgeinner. Also, should ther be something I should add to the water to stabilize the water for hardness? (in other words, what can i add to make the water harder?) this is because my water is on the soft side. I will add another fish or two because since this fish is lonely since the other one died. I just added some ceramic biofilter rings so I hope that can be regulated. I also did a PWC yesterday. As for my water source it comes directly as city water from the tap in my dorm room. It has been setup up for about a week or two but I lost most of the water during the move so I had to re establish it so some of the water is new and hea been treated with a dechorinator. Thank you for your advice. Let me know if more information is needed.
