Poly-Filter usage?

[mjreefs]

Hi all,

I live outside of the USA and I could actually get some items from Amazon and have it shipped here. Lead time is usually 2-4 weeks, so I would get what I need usually every 4-6 months. I'm considering on buying Poly-Filter and either I'm getting the 12x12 one or a 3-pack of 4x8. I'm thinking of using 4x4s per instance of copper removal after a water change (a wavemaker would be pointing to the polyfilter). Would this work or is it "underdosed"? Thanks!

It draws a lot of copper and metal and changes color to let you know when it it is exhausted and ready for change
I like it and trust it

Yeah I've heard a lot of good things about it, but my problem is the sizing. 4x4 might be too small and might not absorb most, if not all, of the copper

They make a 12” x 12” size which can be cut down or used whole

Why are you adding water that has copper in it?
