I did the mod today to be able to refill the filter myself. I cut the filter and used a "no-hub" to join.
My questions are:
* Does any active charcoal work? I got the one for aquariums at Wal-mart.
* Does the size of the charcoal pellet matter? The ones from the factory were small cylinders. The Walmart kind is more like gravel.
* How full should it be? Should it be packed tight with charcoal or leave some room for air to more easily flow?
* I know it cannot get wet with holding tank sewage, but what about some water coming from the through hull side? I don't know how it got there, but there was a tiny amount when I took off the hose.
Thanks,
Esteban
