Hi guys, I know this has probably been asked to death but I can't seem to find a definitive thread about it.
I'm planning to rescape my 120cm and 60cm tanks and I wondered if I could run them with a lower level of CO2... maybe 15ppm? The reason behind this is 1. To save on refills, 2. I've noticed even turning down my CO2 a little bit has improved the fish respiration with seemingly no negative affects on the plants. 3. I don't want explosive growth for maintenance purposes but I also don't want it to be as slow as a low energy tank because these are displays after all.
Has/does anyone do this successfully?
