Nymox Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 I haven't used mine in a while, I went to use it today and its blocked up, I can get any co2 or air through it. Is there any way I can clean it out? Light bleach dip or something like baking soda and vinegar? Its just a blown glass diffuser with a ceramic frit.

A-town... Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 I used bleach on mine only took ten mins washed with water thoroughly then put back into the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Yeah, I only soak mine for a short time too. Keep in mind though, bleach can get sucked into the diffuser so make sure it is empty of fluid before you put it into the tank (or it will dump pure chlorine into the tank). Also, it the frit is blocked from hard water deposits, you may need to soak it in acid (e.g. vinegar or something stronger if you have access to that sort of thing).
