thanks for the link. It says in the article that you can use a bubble counter or run it through the filter. Does anyone have any opinions or experience with the filter method.

Yes! I love putting those bubbles through a canister filter. I really saw a dramatic increase in [acronym:7b47cbfd91="Carbon dioxide"]CO2[/acronym:7b47cbfd91] [acronym:7b47cbfd91="Parts per Million"]ppm[/acronym:7b47cbfd91] after I did that. Certainly worth a try, and you can always get some other kind of diffuser later.
