Aquarium Advice FINatic
so its just a filter(powerhead) on top of a pipe with co2 coming in from ther liter and then that makes it go into the hole which sents it to the tank?
Silicone tubing reacts w/ CO2 and renders it less efficient (thus the silicone hardening over time under CO2 usage). Our special CO2 Resistant Tubing loses less than 1% of CO2.
The losses through vinyl tubing are grossly exaggerated, IMO. The only place
where CO2-proof tubing is useful is between the bottle and the solenoid
(assuming that your solenoid isn't attached directly to the regulator). That's
the high-pressure part of the system, and you might notice a bit of loss there.
For the low-pressure part (following the needle valve), any odd tubing will do.
