I have 2 inverts coming tomorrow morning, I have been medicating my fish with these two medicines. When learning about the possible effects they will have on my inverts, i immediately added activated carbon. How long will it take for the carbon to remove the medicine???

The removal rate will vary a lot depending on how the carbon is being exposed and the rate of water flow through it.
Consider doing a major water change like up to 50% if possible and then run the carbon for at least 24 hours.
