    Co2 levels and water temperature question

    Hi all, I was wondering whether I need to inject more co2 when the water temperature is higher in the summer months. I know that warmer water can't hold the co2 for as long as when the water is cooler. Only recently when we had a bit of a heat wave, my drop checker was lime green during lights...

    Fire extinguisher question

    Hi all, I am think about setting up a fire extinguisher for the co2 on my tank, and then putting my 500g co2 onto my nano. Are all co2 fire extinguishers the same?

    CO2 question

    Hi all, at the moment I have my co2 come on about an hour before lights come on. Is it better to have it come on 1 hour before or do most people have it come on 2 hours before. If levels aren't at optimum before the lights come on, will this fluctuation in co2 trigger algae?
