Tank : Juwel Vision 180
Now you'll have to excuse my rather poor little sketch, I've just knocked it up on my iPad.
The water is pushed diagonally from left to right across the top of the tank from the Fluval 205, and diagonally down through the tank from right to left from the Tetratec. I placed my diffuser underneath the 205 intake in the hope that alot of the misted Co2 would be taken in and then thrown out across the other side of the tank, and then whatever wasn't sucked up would be pushed down across the tank directly at the planted area by the EX700. That's not really happening, I mean whatever isn't sucked up tends to flow straight up the back glass of the tank, and then begins to flow towards the centre of the tank where it is pushed by the EX700 spraybar.
Would there be a better way for me to get better Co2 distribution around the tank only using the equipment I have got?
Also, my dropchecker isn't really turning a lime green at all. I have the gas coming on 2 hours before lights on, at a rate of 3/4 bps. I'm not overly worried, it would be nice it it was lime green, but is that down to not enough gas or not enough flow?
Thanks in advance
