I did change brands....I got the kent rabbit pellet looking carbon over the marineland I was using before, I did rinse it, and its been about 6 weeks since I last changed it. I actually reduced the amount of carbon I normally use. I usually fill my 2 little fishes reactor but this time I did about half(2 cups).

I too have never had an issue but as I stated earlier, this is the only thing I have changed in a long time.
