livebearer_breeder Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 So a couple days ago i refilled my DIY co2 bottles and have noticed that in a couple tanks the diffuser just wont work anymore? this happen to anyone else? all the rest are fine, but the others the pressure builds up so much that they just pop off instead of diffuse.

Godly3vil Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Give them a soak in some plain household bleach, that usually clears the pores up and they will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godly3vil Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 I use a 1/20 part solution, and soak them in some water conditioned tap water for a few hours afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
