I wonder if you can buy AC in bulk cheaply?
Here's a good page describing what AC can remove from water:
Activated Carbon Filtration
http://www.ext.nodak.edu/extpubs/h2o...ys/ae1029w.htm
and I did find a page that says carbon will not reduce phosphates;
reverse osmosis will remove phosphates
http://mauiwater.org/phosphates.html
Premium Aquatics (indiana) has 4 lb for $19.95 which seems a pretty good
deal; many stores are selling 10 oz. for $9.95!!!

[sorry, that will wrap -- couldn't find my short url link]
and I think someone mentioned getting bulk amounts of AC at water
softening supply companies, but I didn't come across that in my web search.
