Aquarium Advice Freak
I have a 10 gallon tank with DIY CO2 set up. At first, my plants really started growing like crazy but lately it doesn't appear like they're growing at all.
My mixture is as follows. I have two 500ml bottles with this mixture in each:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1/16 tsp brewers yeast
Then I also have a third bottle that both lines from the reactors go into before going into the tank.
As for a diffuser, I have a small Elite underwater filter that I use as a powerhead to "spray" the CO2 bubbles throughout the tank.
I change the mixture in both bottles once a week.
Basically, I'm wondering if I'm wasting my time. I have two 14w 5000k CFL bulbs on the tank, but I've contemplated switching to an AquaticLife T5HO like I have on my 36 gallon. Should I just ditch CO2 and stick with pure high lighting?
