So anthracite can be used for mechanical filtration but nowhere in this
propaganda does it claim that anthracite performs any chemical filtration.


## BINGO!!!!

Basically anthracite is fancy filter sand! Therefore it is not equivalent
to or interchangeable with GAC.


## We were led to believe it was!

GAC is not intended to perform any
mechanical or biological filtration, although over time it will begin to

do
both. GAC is intended to perform chemical filtration only.


## I hope no one fell for this and purchased it at the time thinking it was
equal to or better than the Activated Charcoal they were using at the time.
