What type of filtration does active carbon provide and does it make
sense in
a pond?

Can anyone recommend a good place online to buy a bunch of
granular/pelltized activated carbon on the cheap? We've got really clear
water now, all except for the tanin

www.aquaticeco.com Buy the carbon matting, not the pellets, else you'll be
rinsing them for ever. Also, not all carbon is the same, aquarium/pond
carbon is phosphorous free. This is important because suspended algae loves
phosphorous, is my understanding. ~ jan
