This is what I've been hearing about charcoal... If no charcoal then
what?


Partial water changes. I gave up charcoal ages ago and don't miss it.

I have a clown loack tank, a ciclid/cat fish tank and a spotted green
puffer tank all with AC 500's.... What would one use along with the big
sponges and bio stars thingies? Peat for the CL's- soft water? This
non-charcoal thing is new thinking for me...


Nothing. With partial water changes you don't need anything else in the
filter but the sponges and stars.
