    Why does BRS recommend this?

    When it comes to filter carbon we are pretty picky and wouldn’t recommend any ordinary carbon. The ROX carbon in our opinion is the best carbon on the market, only requiring half as much as most standard carbons. It may cost a little more upfront, however being able to use less and see faster and better results more thanmakes up for this. Also, with its super low dust content, rinsing is quick and doesn’t require much water at all.

    BRS Bulk Premium ROX 0.8 Aquarium Carbon offers superior absorption, less dust, and pristine water clarity. Typically used by pharmaceutical companies to create ultra-pure water. The wide variety of pore sizes makes it the best aquarium carbon available to remove yellowing pigments, contaminants and irritants from your tank.

    BRS Bulk Premium ROX 0.8 Carbon Specifications

    • Iodine Number: 1000 min.
    • Ball-Pan Hardness: 97 min.
    • Surface area (BET) m2/g: 1225
    • pH: Neutral
    • Food Chemicals Codex: Passes
    • Ash, Mass %: 3
    • Methylene blue absorption g/100g: 24
    • Washed with Hydrochloric Acid

    ROX 0.8 is a specialty carbon extruded into tiny, extremely hard pellets resulting in less dust and reducing the amount of fines released into the water. It features high numbers of large and small pores giving it all the advantages of both lignite and bituminous carbons. ROX 0.8 will make your water crystal clear faster with less material.

    BRS purchases our carbon directly from the manufacturer so we can offer the best carbon at reasonable prices. While most companies claim their carbon is the best, our statement is backed with true science and real numbers. Carbon is not created equal. Different sizes, shapes, and materials will perform with drastically varying results.

    Recommended Dosage: 1 tablespoon per 10 gallons, or use ourb0b体育平台 for hassle-free dosage recommendations.

    Product Questions

    I've read that it matters how carbon is activated as to whether it leaches phosphates. Is this carbon activated chemically or physically?
    Question by: Laura M on Mar 7, 2018, 5:18 PM
    Hi there,
    Thank you for reaching out.
    Our ROX carbon is steam activated and acid washed with hydrochloric acid and not phosphoric acid so there is no danger of it leaching phosphates into the water.
    Please let us know if you have any other questions.
    Have a great day!

    What micron filter bag is needed for rox0.8
    Question by: Jeff on Jan 18, 2018, 7:15 PM
    We suggest a media bad that has a micron rating of 300 or lower. That will contain the media within the bag and still allow for good water flow through the bag.

    how much should i use for 45 gallon freshwater?
    Question by: Mian Ali on Nov 19, 2017, 1:30 AM
    I'm afraid we only normally work with saltwater applications, and wouldn't have info for freshwater use, but our normal recommendation would be about 4 Tbsp for a 45 tank.

    Have a great day!

    As far as concern over dust relative to risk for tangs/HLLE, is Rox the best reef carbon available?
    Question by: Cheree on Nov 19, 2017, 1:23 AM
    While I've not seen any research showing any difference between different carbons and their effect on HLLE, Rox .8 is definitely the highest grade of carbon available and has the lowest dust level.

    Have a great day!

    Do you know how many cups of ROX 0.8 are in the 1/4 gallon container?
    Thank you.
    Question by: MICHAEL DONLEY on Jun 1, 2016, 12:26 PM
    Great question!
    There will be 4 cups per 1/4 gallon.
    Answer by: Connor on Jun 2, 2016, 12:25 PM
    Can I run GFO and ROX Carbon in one delux reactor and biopellets in another seperate reactor? Or is it advised to only run one phosphate removing media at a time?
    Question by: Jose on May 17, 2016, 9:53 AM
    Great question!
    We do not recommend running bio pellets in conjunction for tow reasons. The pellets will clog and release waste film which will clog the system in addition of GFO not needing to be run with pellets as the pellets do require a small amount of phosphate to perform correctly.
    Answer by: Connor on May 18, 2016, 2:23 PM
    Will this work for freshwater? I'm sure it will because it's just crabon but I need to make sure.
    Question by: Sean on May 11, 2016, 7:29 PM
    Great question!
    This will work perfect for freshwater! Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!

    Thank you for your interest in Bulk Reef Supply. At the moment we are currently only able to ship to the US and Canada. For further information on our shipping policies please check out our shipping information located at//www.tcretreat.com/shipping-delivery
    Answer by: Connor on Apr 25, 2016, 6:24 PM
    I just got an old Red Sea Max 250 set up and running which is 65 gallons. I have a c-220 canister filter on it that normally takes 2-100gram carbon bags or just over 13 tablespoons. I see this carbon only recommends using 6.5 tablespoons for my size aquarium. Is it really that good that I can use half the amount as other brands?
    Question by: Matt on Feb 2, 2016, 5:20 PM
    Great question!
    Correct, the ROX 0.8 does have twice the performance as the standard Bituminous carbon used in many other aquarium products. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
    Answer by: Connor on Feb 24, 2016, 4:44 PM
    What should the rate of flow be in a reactor with carbon? Enough to barely tumble, no tumble, or other?
    Question by: Kyle C on Jan 26, 2016, 5:44 PM
    Greta question!
    然而流流量会有所不同around 300 GPH. The Carbon should be held in place with sponges and should not be allowed to tumble. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
    Answer by: Connor on Feb 3, 2016, 3:33 PM
    Which reactor do you recommend for the ROX 0.8 carbon? Do you have one that will compress it and keep it between filter pads where it can't escape to the tank?

    Thanks,
    David
    Question by: David on Apr 4, 2014, 6:01 PM
    -1
    Hey David,
    The standard BRS reactor I think is the best for the ROX carbon. Its filter pads are fine enough that the carbon stays inside of them. There are a lot of great reactors out there, but with most of the other ones you will need to custom cut some filter floss material to keep the carbon from going through the sponges as its quite small.
    Answer by: Bulk Reef Supply on Apr 4, 2014, 6:01 PM
    How much carbon should I use? What's the carbon to gallon ratio for this carbon? Planning on putting it my my BRS dual reactor. Thanks!!
    Question by: Robert on Feb 28, 2014, 5:15 PM
    22
    Hey Robert,
    With the ROX carbon it comes out to 1 tablespoon per 10g of water. Or if you want to do the math the easy way, use the reef calculator found at this link:

    How long will the media brs GFO high capacity & Premium POX 0.8 carbon be changed?
    Question by: wing on Jan 20, 2014, 9:17 AM
    Its best to change carbon every two weeks. GFO on the other hand will vary depending on the amount of phosphates in the water. No need to change it until its depleted. Typically this is 4-6 weeks assuming normal dosages and normal phosphate levels but the best thing to do is monitor your phosphates for an increase, and change the GFO when the phosphates begin to rise.

    What kind of carbon is recommended to run in a reactor
    Question by: Rick on Oct 28, 2013, 11:56 AM
    -9
    Hey Rick,
    It really depends on the reactor. The ROX carbon is the best carbon we sell, but because of its small particle size its well suited to reactors whose sponges have large holes in them. For those types of reactors the lignite carbon will be the best bet as its still performs better then most carbons while being a larger particle size.
