using carbon while cycling? good idea?
I am cycling my 125 gallon soon to be reef tank. Can i hook up my carbon/phosbane reactor? Are there pro's or con's to doing this? So far I just have my skimmer, powerheads, and heaters running. The lights stay on about 6-8 hours a day now. The water has a yellow tint in it right now. Any advice would be great!!!
