Hi,
I have a 350l planted discus tank, with pressurised CO2 being fed into a Dennerle reactor. This hangs in the tank, and I am using an Eheim Aquaball to blow water through it. This works fairly well, but is a little clunky. Also, I would prefer to have less gear in the actual tank.
I am considering changing this to an Aquamedic CO2 reactor like this: Co2 Reactor 1000 – Aqua Medic Direct which could hang outside the tank, and be fed by the outlet of a second cannister filter. At present, I am considering an Eheim Classic 600, which has a pump output of 1,000l/hour. This kind of setup would hopefully produce several advantages: more effective CO2 injection into the tank, the tank would be less cluttered and I could use the second filter to filter through phosphate absorbing media.
If anyone has experience with this kind of setup, I would be grateful for advice, hints etc.
Many thanks.
