My biggest issue is learning how to find the happy spot on my lights, measure and balance my co2. I have a chihiros wrgb 2 on my 20 gallon planted tanks. I'm using the co2art inline diffuser for my co2 and just got an apera ph60 pen for now until I have decide which monitor I want to get. I just have no idea what I'm doing as far as measuring my co2 levels and it's been hard to find good info on the best method, a walk through ect.. Im aware of the pH drop method as well as the old school ph kh. I have some algae issues I want to fix from the source an I know it's just because my tanks somewhat new and out of balance. Any guide to point me in the right direction? Really wanna learn what and how to get the best results I can! I really appreciate it any feedback you have an would love to send you pictures, video, parameters, any info you would like also! Love the videos man!

Could you make a video on how much CO2 do we need ? How many drops per minute according to tank size ?

@Chaoitcme 2 года назад

I bought a cheap Fluval system and I hate it. I will be getting one of these in the near future. What I like about the Art systems is that you can connect multiple defusers to one regulator.

Hello I know this video is a year old but I was hoping you could clarify 3 questions I have. How long would a CO2 canister of this size last in a 32gal tank? And what speed am I trying to get the bubbles to in the bubble guage? Like one bubble every 3 seconds or...? And what would be the risks for my aquarium if I had it set too fast accidently?

@lxix1067 2 года назад

One bubble every 3 seconds per 5 gallons

@kassieguzman4514 2 года назад

I’m getting a canister filter to help with co2 movement, with an in-tank diffuser where should I place the diffuser? In it should be towards the bottom to allow the most time to dissolve but do I put it on the back side of the tank or on the sides? On the input side or outflow side?

@BravoD1Nonly 3 года назад

Hey MJ I love your videos. I have 4 planted tanks and one problem I always have is water backflow in my co2 lines. I've tried a dozen check valves and it always happens. Any thoughts on what I can do to fix this? Keep making great content man...

@MJAquascaping 3 года назад

Hey Jonathan! Thanks for the compliments 😊 Honestly i have the same problem.. I just try to keep the air tube from the check valve to the diffuser as short as possible.

@BravoD1Nonly 3 года назад

Sorry I meant it always makes it past the check valve. Even the costly ones. Lol. Thought maybe I was doing something wrong. 😆

@Yolo-mz5yg Год назад

@@BravoD1Nonly don't be scared. The bubble counter has already check valve built in . For extra safety it's recommended to use a check valve. We fill.the bubble counter with water but that water doesn't go inside the regulator because the bubble counter has a Check valve in it .Very few people know this .

@alexey_sychev 2 года назад

Could you please share the best places for buying those 2kg CO2 cilinders in Netherlands in 2022? What you personally use, any advice?

@jamesbrancopratt3820 2 года назад

Hey! I can see you are using an extra check valve. May I ask why? The Co2 art systems already have built in check valves.

@MJAquascaping 2 года назад

I prefer to have another check valve close to the diffuser so I don't get too much water flowing back in the tubing when the CO2 is off

@hawweitan913 9 месяцев назад

Hi ! Is it really ok if We use airline tubing for co2 system ? But recommended to using co2 resistant ones ? I’ve seen in some videos saying that actually it is ok to use normal airline tubing starting upwards from the check valve , is this true ?

@nashkhairuddin7073 2 года назад

Hi Mark...I have a quite simple CO2 system (ISTA 95G) with replaceable cartridge and no timer or solenoid so its constantly on even when the light is off. Will that endanger my fish or cause me other problems? Or will the surface agitation be enough to degas the CO2? Appreciate the advice 🙏🏻

@MJAquascaping 2 года назад

surface agitation is enough 😊

hi thx for the guide, i was lost. How long does the 2kg Co2 will last aprox ?

@MJAquascaping 3 года назад

Depends on the size of your aquarium, and how much you are injecting! I'm using 2kg on a 70 liter tank, and this should last me a year easily

@cdave2006 3 года назад

@@MJAquascaping ok, I have a 450L... And I might use CO2 mainly to maintain my ph to around 7 with a PH controller. That setup seems insanely costly... (intended for Discus keeping mainly, then plants could use it too.

@laurenhanna3233 3 года назад

THANK YOU! I have been searching and searching for a simple explanation of what valves get open and how much. Do you open the canister 100%?

@MJAquascaping 3 года назад

Happy you liked the video! Yeah I open it 100% 😊

@chrisgagui1459 3 года назад

Would there be a problem if I setup the timer same time as the light?

@MJAquascaping 3 года назад

I think you will get algae, preferably CO2 starts 1 hour earlier

@brandonwayne24 3 года назад

Does it matter where you place the co2 diffuser?

@MJAquascaping 3 года назад

Yes it does! I always prefer to place it on the opposite side of the filter outflow. This way the flow pushes the micro CO2 bubbles down, and they stay in the aquarium longer. Most important thing is that the CO2 doesn't go straight up to the surface.

I used Hob Filter....where should i position my diffuser so co2 will distribute very well..by the way i only use diy co2 using citric acid and baking soda

Either on the opposite side of the filter, or underneath the filter, whichever distributes the CO2 bubbles best.
