The diy kit off eBay for full kit no more than 20 pounds on a good day 15 yeast = 39p sugar = 55p if that b carb and c acid eBay say five pound each

Yeah and yeah eBay co2 kit

I used the diy kit on a 120l with a good valve to shut off of an evening good pressure and a diffuser drop checker worked well.

Yeah I used this before I used the kit too a lot better than making your own no leaks. It's really good as it auto feeds the acid to the b carb but not sure what you mean by controllable? I believe it or not went back to the yeast i personally found the acid to be more of a risk I knocked the...

Using same products prime I also dose at every water change with stability. Never had any problems.

There was a few new ones too? But I'm not worried worried but don't want to lose them as I practically started them like a seed

No worries all the best

1month 14days no live stock yet just wanted the plants to take off and have the tank to cycle yeah they are doing extremely well

Thank you for your help much appreciated

Sorry T5 lights no reflectors Co2 yes Tank 120l Jewel no floating plants. Thanks

Hi all i have just noticed a blob of green alage in my tank im asuming its due to me having my my light on too long around 12hrs + i know i happen to put on and come home late having them on too long what is the time my lights should be on for at max? is it 8-6hrs? thanks in advnace

Update: i changed my diffuser to one that make a hell lot of tiny fine bubbles that now cover the hole tank the drop tester too 4dkh working fine all at good levels and much better thanks for all your help people.

Ok it's all good I now have a good flow of co2

I mean diffuser it's only a cheap one bubble count I noticed if I turn the co2 up to say 5 counts sec it will blow huge bubbles I believe them to be smaller like a fine mist it should be better ?

i read the info I have my flow at good rate yep plants flows moving co2 around tank in a circle and is under water flow it was the drop checker I brought I though would be that solution that's where I got confused this one said to add to use tank water and is a different colour but I will get...

I will try some 4dkh and see how I get on I thank you all that have helped kind regards Ray

Yeah I read it

Oh this stuff I got it's orange in colour you use your fish tank water you add a few drops it Gos dark green you pop it in tank and it should go a ligh green to be good or yellow if to much

Thanks

Ok it dose appear to be changing but very slow at doing so so that's fine. The other thing is I'm told co2 will lower ph? So off the tap mine is high range 7.4 from tank it's on low rang of 6.4. Of course the dropper will tell you if it's too much etc it just worries me although there is c02...

Yeah it's that stuff that you put in the drop tester right?

Should I be worried that my dropper is showing no co2 info after putting it in the tank I'm assuming it will and can take a few hours to give some reading? Thanks in advance Ray

Ok brought a drop tester should I be worried it's not worked straight away and will take some time ?

Hi all I have a co2 diffuser but it's not a matter of just putting in in the tank and turning it on surly or is it I want to know is there an art for my plants to get the co2 for example getting the bubbles around the hole tank on the plants or is it really just put it where it will look nice...

What you think ? I did not think theses rocks would be as big as they are. But it's just a matter of playing about with them really.

Well thanks for the great feedback and help will keep you all updated like you say won't be over night I do this but stage by stage thanks again

Yes your right I agree well said Thanks Andy.
