Just wondering about this for my next tank now i've shut my hi tech headache down and can think forward
It will be low light with undemanding plants. I've sold most of my CO2 gear but still have a couple of almost full 2kg FE's. I'm toying with the idea of using these as a 24hr source of CO2, with a simple valve on the FE and most likely ported directly into an external.
I don't want to have to stress about flow, distribution etc but thought maybe having it going at say 1 or 2 bps constantly may just help plants a little? (it was uncountable on the hi tech at the highest light settings I used). Have read quite a few people have had great success with constant lower levels of CO2.
Any thoughts?
