If the cartridge filter is sized right it should be fine. What is your free and combined cl, ph, Alk and calicum hardness at? Thse are the important things first

If your Cl isn't at least above 5.0 free Cl then your not gonna get it through the system and kill it off.
Well I was meaning if he just went with lava rock as his only filter method and no clor
