Aquarium Advice Freak
I stole this from Benfishcrazybombbenjamin
"When it put Co2 in the tank, it's just air bubbles, well co2 bubbles.
You mix the sugar/yeast/water in a two-litter and shake it up so it dissoloves, there are better ways to dissolving but since this is your first time we won't worry about it.
You drill a hole a little smaller then the airline tubing in the cap so it fits snug. Then screw the cap on tight. After anywhere from 12-20 hours, you'll see bubbles coming from the end of the tube in the water, that's your co2. There are also better ways to get as much co2 in the water as you can, the easist way is just getting an airstone for the end of the tubing. The bubbles will continue to go for around 2-4weeks, then you dump the mixture and make a new batch.
Dosing and the co2 are different, they give the plants different things."
Can someone link me to a better description of this process (maybe one with pictures)? I think I am going to try this with my 10g, suggestions?
