Question about the CO2, how do you inject it, what kind of reactor do you use (if any)? I tried to run CO2 in my 65g planted tank (with a sump) but I was going through an enormous amount of CO2 to lower pH suitably because I think it was gassing off from the sump.
I am using a Aquatic Life Reactor 1000 in the sump. The CO2 is injected from the 10lbs bottle through the regulator and into the reactor. about 3 bubbles/second. I am using the Milwakee pH controller and have it set for 6.5. I am still trying to lower my PH to 6.5. I also have almond Leaves in the tank that should help lower the pH. I will see how much Co2 I end up going through.
