Aquarium Advice Addict
I got my new Hagen unit and I set it up tonight, but I'll wait for tomorrow to fill it so I can watch it as it starts to bubble. I'm not using the ladder; I got the Red Sea diffuser as recommended by Purrbox. Thanks!
When I put the little diffuser in the tank, the betta sat on it! 8O I bet he won't be doing that tomorrow!
The Hagen system is sitting on the counter beside the tank and I used some suction cups and airline holders to route the tubing so there are no kinks or anything to impede the flow of CO2.
I can't wait for the algae to finally go away! I did have pearling using Excel. The pearling is on the underside of the leaves, and the darn hair algae is on the top of the leaves.
At night, what do you guys with DIY CO2 do? I guess I'll pull the tubing off the lid of the Hagen when I turn the lights off and let the CO2 dissipate into the room. The kitchen (where the Hagen unit is) is rather small, so maybe I'll take the unit to another bigger room for the night. The hatchery has numerous 2 liter bottles under the sale tanks (not the show tank) and they pull the tubing out of the bottles as they close up shop.
