I'm not an expert, but I believe GAC is needed if you have chlorimines present in your water. Your local water company have public reports on your water quality.

I would forget the GAC and convert the housing to a DI filter. With the Coralife you will probably want DI as they are not known to be real efficient RO units and the DI will take care of most of what the RO misses.
