How much carbon is everyone using?

1 cup of fine lignite changed once a month for my 230gal system.

I don't use ROX, but use Kent Reef Carbon... Seems ok.

I use 1 litre in 2 - 500ml bags. I then alternating changing each bag at mid and end of month.

Thanks guys for you input, I set-up my 2nd MR1 today with 2 cups of the Carbon I got from Eli. So I will see if that will help clear my water a bit more, only time will tell.

2 cups of ROX in a BRS reactor for the 225g and 1 cup of ROX in a TLF reactor for the 90g. Changed monthly.

I have a pail of Kent Reef Carbon I'm finishing up, and then back to ROX. I use 250mL changed every 6 weeks on 90 gallon tank with 15 gallons in sump.

So from all the input it seems to be most people are running somewhat what is requimended for the size of there system. I must say that in just a day or so after adding the carbon my water is definitely clearer that it was before the carbon.

If there's that much of a difference, watch out that your corals don't get burned from the now more intense lighting.
