hi all,
Now I have a fluval 88g co2 kit
I currently have my co2 on for 10 hours a day - 4 hours before the lights come on and then turn it off 1 hour before the lights go out at just below 1bps as its only a 50litre tank.
Now I'm getting lovely growth with a little brown algae on the rocks but I know that was from my lights being on way to long.
Its just a pain that I have to manually turn the CO2 on and off everyday.
so if i miss a few days for example its going to cause me a huge algae out break which I've had before.
So my question is would it cause issues with having it on 24hours a day?
Would i need to run an airstone all day and night?
any other advice would be greatly appreciated and tanks in advance
