Wow, literally 2 hours ago, I had just made a comment on a GreeAqua video about why they didn't use an in0line CO2 diffuser. So glad you made this video to discuss it.
You won’t regret switching to that inline diffuser. I bought mines from GLA and love it! Gives out lots of fine bubbles. Good luck buddy, love the shirt!
I am very interested to see how that style of in-line diffuser performs. I've been contemplating replacing my current one with that style with the hope of reducing the mist effect in the tank.
Your ceramic disc was bad, it happens occasionally. You could get a replacement disc and install that in the in-tank diffuser. I had the same problem with a Wyin diffuser, got replacement discs off Aliexpress for next to nothing, and havent had a single large bubble pop out. going strong for over a year now.
I used the Jardli glass inline and just found that it produces huge bubbles which go straight to the surface. I've ordered an inline and in tank diffuser and plan to use both, the in tank positioned at the furthest point from the filter outlet.
Wonder if they could be used in conjunction with an air pump on a reef tank. Instead of injecting the water with Co2 it would be air. Thinking I may have to get one to play around with on my reef tank.
I tried to leave a review on the site however the way the review system works and since i ordered multiple products, i couldnt find the review email for this one, and where as the other products i liked i dont want to give them the wrong review
Does just surface water agitation From HOB filter outflow diminishes Co2 injection or the bubble from sponge filter or both will deminish Co2 injected Can I use a sponge filter at all with low bubble output Thanks for time and reply
alexander lock look up the website called advancedplantedtank, it will answer your question in the co2 section. Regarding it, more surface agitation is good for balance co2 and o2 in your tank, bringing your tank into gas equalinirum.
I thought the water was meant to go in at the top and out of the bottom so the Co2 stays in the reactor until it has completely dissolved into the water so no bubbles in the tank and no wasted Co2
@B F Actually, that is not the one - although it is supposed to be a good diffuser. This is the one he uses: www.bigalspets.com/ca/ista-external-co2-ceramic-reactor.html . Notice the revolving propeller inside the reactor.

Depends on what kind of deal you can get, how fancy you want your equipment and how big a canister you buy, for me: 3kg canister - $80 Regulator + Solenoid - $120 Tubing - Free (shop through it in with the regulator) Bubble counter - $10 Drop Checker - $12 Check Valve - $5 Inline Diffuser and in-tank Atomizer from GLA (the best) - $80 Co2 Re-fill - about $20 every 4 months. You can setup co2 for under $10 if you go the DIY route. Some folks have had great success with this, I find it too fiddly and messy.
