Finznfangs Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hi All, just thought i was tap onto the end of this thread... i have just started my DIY CO2, all is working fine, BUT instead of using the diffuser, i decided to put it below my filter intake (CF1200) so it distributes throughout the tank etc etc, all was going well and then it was building up in my spray bar and then getting air in the pipes and generally just being noisy. and causing my fish stress! At the moment i have it connected to a airstone but i am not happy with the large bubbles. Has anyone else had this issue? and should i just buy a proper diffuser and flag the filter intake idea?

Finznfangs Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 no i dont stop it at night, i have heard of people putting a extra airstone on at night or putting a powerhead for more airation (allowing more oxygen in and CO2 out) if your worried about the levels.
