Hi. I’m looking to upgrade my tank with a CO2 system. As it stands at the moment my tank isn’t on a cabinet where equipment can be hidden and there is no way on earth that my Good Lady will allow me to have a bright red 2 or 5 kg fire extinguisher on show! Therefore my initial option would be a less conspicuous nano system, in particular I’m looking at the Tropica system. I know that with these systems there is a risk of the CO2 all dumping into the tank towards the end of its life, and also there is no solenoid to put it on a timer. I therefore have 3 questions - 1. Is the CO2 dump highly likely? 2. Is it pointless a running a system that is 24/7 with no timer for hours of darkness? & 3. With me just having ‘easy’ plants, therefore a bubble rate of approx 3 bps, would the 95 gram bottle last me a month before replacement? Many thanks in advance. Steve
