Hi, I use the guys from the link Hoggie shared. But I get standard bottles from them... haven't really seen the smaller size.

Some of the new diffusers will produce large bubbles at the beginning, but shortly will start producing only fine mist.

Hi guys, Lately I use co2 24/7 and I feel the results are better. Better growth, less problems. To be honest, running co2 24/7 doesn't waste that much of a co2 compared to pumping it for 8-9-10h a day. Generally I use lower bubble count - around or lower the 1bps per second 24/7 compared to 2...

The Tropica ones are great! Also the Fluval nano diffuser. It is black, but creates great mist.

When too much co2 injected in the water, the fish usually are grasping for air on the surface or become lethargic and hide away in the spot with the least current(the lowest concentration of co2).. To me this behaviour looks like a parasite, but not a fish expert. A way to rule out co2 is to...

The scapers light is 8000K, I have 2 of them over my scapers tank. It is a good light, but not strong enough for me :) Anyway, I would recommend better filter as well. I am using the JBL Cristal Profi 701 on this tank, which provides enough flow and enough filtering media for planted aquaria. If...

I think there will be a distribution problem and plants will suffer. Ideally you can use a lily pipe, as the spray bar reduced the flow rate. The other option will be to use a small power head above the atomizer.

He was a rebel ...

I would personally do a larger amount, as you can be more precise and to get the correct amount of salt. If you do 100mls only, every tenth of a gram less or more, due to a calibration error or human error will affect the solution.

I tend to overdose as well and HC love it. Riccia does not. It just dies. Fish and shrimps are fine. But start thinking whether we should use it or not, because of it nasty nature....

That would be neglectable, as the acceleration will be greater. This is how the jet turbine works. The design also helps for creating venturi effect, which increases the flow at the outlet of the reactor. Sorry for highjacking the topic.

Not really, as the impeller is creating dragging force on its front and faster flow at the oposite side - imagine a domestic fan. So on theory it should not decrease the flow.

It just happened to come across this new designed atomiser on Ebay: It looks it will be better than the Up aqua ones, as the impeller is supposed to break down all the bubbles. Advantage would be that you can actually take it apart and clean it, which you can not do with the other atomisers on...

True, they were very good! I have regulator and needle valve from them and those are great! There is other company selling on ebay, very similar products... if not the same -username: www * min-aqua * com and there is a listing for needle valve here I have not used them, but they deliver to UK...

Lunapet stopped selling completely. I have asked them this question few weeks back and they said that the business is closed...

I have screwed it directly to the regulator without the washer and tested it in the sink full of water. No leaks. Now it is up and running on my tank :) Happy days!

Just a quick questions guys, do you use any type of o-ring between the regulator and the needle valve? I have bought the Lunapet needle valve and it is pretty small gadget, but it doesn't come with any rubber o-ring and the carving it is quite long, so it actually reach the bottom of the female...

The diffusrr has a bubble counter in it, so you might just buy a check valve! Regarding the regulator...I think this one will not fit!

Great, thanks! Will give them a go now! :)

Thanks Mark! So they are selling them cheaper, if outdated?

Does anybody knows, where I can get a refill of TMC/paintball/ co2 canister in Portsmouth? Have tried different Fire protection companies, but none wants to do refills?

I'm google-ing now :geek: Thanks!

Sam, could you please give me some leads, where I could find a converter that will allow me to use a fluval regulator /for disposable bottles 88 gr/ on refillable bottle, Thanks in advance!

In my opinion this atomiser is kinda update of the old one. With the addition of second membrane, I believe they are trying to break down the bubbles, that have caused the mist in the aquarium with the old one. The other marketing trick is the transparent body, which is fancy and will allow you...

It looks faulty to me. The german standard is 2 pin plug as else where in the EU 220 V 50-60 Hz, but with a regular adapter from ASDA it should work without problem in UK. IT is the same voltage, just you have 3 pin socket. I dont believe it has anything to do with the adapter. Most likely...

HI, is it suitable for aquarium 350 l in size? Will it will be sufficient for it? Would it reduce a lot the outflow of the filter? Kind regards
