carbon

Has anyone got any feedback on this product from "Aqua design" I usually look at the % of glutaraldehyde in a product I'm buying, as nothing was stated on the label or website, I emailed the company asking for some basic information, I.e the glutaraldehyde percentage used in their product...

Hi all, im new to this site and relatively new to planted tanks and fish keeping in general! I recently got a a 20L nano tank (I have had a 70L tank for a while) and have been dosing with liquid carbon with a pipette (0.5 mL). For easier dosing I bought a pump bottle online in the hope that one...

Hi I'm looking for a CO2 set up for my 140L tank. I'm currently looking at regulators and they seem to be the most pricey bit. Anyone recommend any that are sub £100? I don't have a Huge budget but want to give my plants the CO2 they deserve.

Hi Everyone, OK, I realize that my question is not easy to answer and I'm not looking for a definitive reply. But, does anyone have any idea how much CO2 fish produce - either by excretion from the gills, urine or faeces? Indeed, which of these three would account for most of the CO2 produced...

Hi Folks, I would like to improve the efficiency of my CO2 usage. I have two related areas of concern: 1 Solubility of CO2 into the tank water I use an internal ceramic atomizer (Bazooka) that produces a very fine mist of CO2 but, despite this, the microbubbles don't completely dissolve. I...

Does anyone know for sure what form of carbon do water plants use? Some sources say that water plants are able to use aqueous form of CO2, but what exactly does this mean? Other sources say that water plants use carbon in the form of H2CO3. Thanks in advance for your answers!
