CO2 exploded?! What happened there?
It didn't *actually* explode, but the water in the separator bottle was cloudy and there was a similarly colored liquid in the outlet tube, which was fed into the filter siphon.CO2 exploded?! What happened there?
Probably the latter. I switched out the bottle for something bigger and used all new airline. I'm really hoping this DIY set-up is short term. I'm out of town until Sunday. My husband is home and will only be gone for one day, but I'm feeling extremely nervous about that one day- to the degree that I'm thinking I should ask him to take the outlet out of the tank.Any chance that the reactor bottle tipped over or the exit port is too close to solution level? The "trap" did its job for the most part. Just keep the exit ports near the top. I once kept a very concentrated salt solution in the separator bottle in an attempt to kill any yeast from passing through. I also flushed the lines with H2O2 prior to use. Still, a blob of fungus would eventually develop on the end of the tube where it entered the filter intake.
That's some detailed stuff! How often do you dose?As for plant fertilizers, PPS-Pro is very economical. I have probably 6-8 months left on a kit I bought for about $35 back in DEC 2013.
Do you have a background on your tank? Could you put the sculpture behind or next to the tank?Hmmm true ...
I wonder if i seal the piece with the clear Drylok?
Ya ill have to make up my own glazes i think, i just wanted the crackle and burn look but that glaze crackle additive i know for a fact isnt safe either
