HOB Filter Question...

We have  a Marineland Penguin 330 filter...  we have just been using the 'normal' rite-size cartridge's. 
Now with out upgrading the filter (not right now anyway) is there a better option when using this filter for better filtration?  Say using the removable baskets that are included with the filter or something else.
Any help or suggestions would be great!

I did reply to this, but it didnt post.
Are the cartridges the ones with carbon inbetween the filter floss? Those work well if you change them about every 2 weeks. For the media baskets you could put carbon and/or phosguard in them. If you do use phosguard make sure you rinse it well first... supposedly it leeches aluminum but I have never had trouble with it.
The cartridges do have carbon in them, but sure doesn't seem like much to me more of a 'dusting' of carbon. 
We have added some carbon to one of the baskets.  How often should the carbon be changed in the basket?
 Any other thoughts?
