680 Litre Tank

[Texfoto]

Yep, it's that big. I have a few different plants that are doing fairly well. I currently use liquid carbon. It's expensive and probably not the best solution.

How do you automatically (with equipment) provide carbon to a 680 litre tank? I've been to big LFS's and they canisters they have are small and they didn't seem to have a good solution. I'm willing to pay money for the equipment but want a permanent solution. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Can't help you with getting a bigger/better CO2 solution, but I would like to see some picture of that tank.

With a tank of that size you would really need a 5kg fire extinguisher or a even bigger pub C02 cylinder like 9 or 11kg but the basic pricible of injecting co2 is the same for small or big tanks.

I think the best will be an outside reaktor!? Do you know what I mean?

I don't. Explain what a reactor does and how it can be used in my situation.

An external CO2 reactor connects directly to your filter pipes, it acts like a chamber which fills with CO2 that the water in your filter passes through and is then dissolved. They can impact flow, but if you have the appropriate filter they are much better at getting CO2 into the water than using a regular glass diffuser. Have a look at the Aquamedic 1000.
