Hello folks,

Does anybody know what exactly does the activated charcoal absorbs?  I came across a few reference books as well as websites that said activated charcoal is no good for a planted tank as it absorbs all the nutrients and trace elements from the water.  On the other hand, there are a few people that use activated charcoal in their planted tanks.

So is there anybody out there that did some researches on what exactly does the charcoal do to the water?

Regards,
Joo
