Opinion on drop checker colour

[Saffa]

I’m new to co2 and been slowly dialing in my co2 over last couple days. Using jbl kit, first day I was too low and second day I’m not sure if this is too high or just rite. I know people suggest 20mg/l is a little too low and 30 odd is more commonly used. Anyways here the 2 pics from day1 and day2 does second pic look ok or too much. This is all using the JBL premix solution

Do you have fish? just keep an eye on them, IMO the drop checker can be more yellow if you have decent surface movement and the fish look ok.

Crank it to get a yellow drop checker awhile no fish / shrimp then you can learn what you need to really hit the levels then dial it back.

That’s what I’m doing in mine now, co2 at 2bps and a bright yellow DC
