Thanks on the advice on the nitrate remover and ammonia remover. I guess I´ll just use it for cycling purposes and then remove it. In my experience fresh carbon does clear out the water nicely, but again I understand in many circumstances you actually want the tank to look a little darker with the peat.

From what I know your supposed to replace the carbon monthly because it looses it´s effectiveness, but never thought it would revert things back if you leave it there unchanged...
