    Co2 for planted freshwater

    I've seen plans for diy co2 bottles all of them were 2 liter bottles. Is it possible to do it bigger so I wouldn't have to change it out as often? I was thinking of a 5 gallon water jug.

    How many watts do i need?

    I am looking at starting plants in my tank that require a medium high light. I found a fixture that puts out 48 watts. That would be 1.8 watts per gallon. I have a 26 bowfront. Would this be enough or would i need more? Here is the link to the fixture i found. Odyssea T5 High Output Lighting
