Depends if the CO2 setup right if its not problems with the CO2 should show pretty quick. Tanks with CO2 have issues and most of the time is due to poor CO2 implementation due to fluctuating CO2 levels causing the issues
Have you done a pH profile and what colour is your DC?
But if every thing is right it takes a a couple of weeks for the plants to adjust to the new [CO2] so dont turn up the light intensity/photoperiod straight away give the plants time to adjust two weeks to adjust and two weeks for it to show ideally six week IMO
So I've gone from excel to this Fe co2 setup. Drop checker is showing lime green ATM I'm on about 2 bubbles per second on my 70 litre. I have Val,sag,crypts and hygrophila. My ph is 7 on a liquid test both before and after a couple of hours of the co2 running but drop checker says it optimal. I guess I'll wait and see
Have you moved your DC to different locations in the tank and checked if the colour change is the same?
A pH test is best done every 30mins from CO2 on till CO2 off with a pre CO2 pH test as well. pH should be stable from lights on till CO2 off, IMO/IME a change of 0.10pH is acceptable from lights on till CO2 off
So I've moved the glass ceramic diffuser right to the side of my internal filter as it has been taking about 3-4 hrs for the drop checker to turn lime green, the bubbles are now getting sucked into the filter hopefully that might work out better. Will the pH stay dropped for the period of the co2 dosing time any given day?
