No, wat i meant is not e rinsing part....
Wat i meant is tht,usually in filter carbon we place it in correct?...

E sequence of order usually...tank water enters e filter system...it goes thru sponge first...then e carbon, then ceramic ring then another layer of sponge...then back to tank.....


But some ppl put carbon at e last process....which means it directly enters tank.....this can cause hith.....

Its proven true....but i forgot e chemistry process....

by right carbon shld b filter out before enterin e tank

ic, Anyway i saw some lfs directly hang the carbon pack inside the tank. those are not aro tank but shrimp tank where shrimps are known to be more sensitive. perhaps the water parameter is not quite the same?

Your method will clog the carbon very fast n reduces it effectiveness. I prefer to use it as a final stage of filtration with additional filter wool filtration.

Really? I don't believe in hearsay as there are yet to be any concrete white paper stating HITH cause by carbon. Proper knowledge n usage of carbon promotes fantastic water quality n also the well-being of the fish. If one is ignorant, better not use it.

Actually quite proven....there is a chemical process whin causes e thinning of aro skin.....


its ok to use carbon but must b sure its removed by another substrate before entering tank water...

I had read some articles written by some renown n qualified biologists stating that carbon might be related to HILT but still they will never stake their reputation into this claim. Why?

Secondly, not all carbons are the same. There are many rubbish quality around which will do more harm than good. Those who used it n discovered it caused harm to the fish n made a sweeping condemnation that all carbon is BADDDD!

Need clarification. Confused.
Isn't hith disease supposed to locate near the mouth ?
There was a thread on hith which is near the mouth (or I called it the 'nostrils')
you mean hith disease can also affect the area on the 'forehead' ?
Or can hith happen at any part of the 'head' ?
