Carbon filter during cycle?

Is this advised?

Is it possible to put 2 kinds of filtermedia in the reactor?

50/50 carbon and for phosfate?

Thanks

You shouldn't have any phos during a cycle, at least I didnt, I ran carbon a bit to clean up the water but I read that carbon during a cycle will actually pull the amonia from your water so I discontinued use
