    I don't use one, but from what I've read, it's not as good.


    I'd chillax and wait for more experienced input.


    There's ppl that can steer you exactly in the right direction. Don't go spending, just yet.

    IDK if it's the same, I'd bet it is. That's expensive


    http://stores.ebay.com/Carbon-Eze another GKer PM'd me this link when I was building my scrubber. It'll last me at least 3 refils.


    that's what I'd do.

    P.S. it was really quick delivery.


    this link is more specific - I paid about $10 less a year and a half ago, he said his prices went up. Still way better than $17per lb.

    I just buy the stuff from petsmart, it's good shit! Fuck its research grade, about as good as you are gonna find. The last one I actually used the crap from walmart because petsmart was out and it has worked fine.


    Here is what I try to use when building one or refilling.
