CO2 Level

[talenzmeier]

Greetings,

I have a 58 gallon planted tank and this morning I was measuring my CO2 level. It registered at 6 ppm of disolved CO2. I'm not sure if this is low, high, medium, etc.. Can anyone help? Thanks.

That's actually pretty low. Normally one wants ranges in the 15-25 ppm range. I would look at how much surface agitation you have and how efficient your reactor is. Also is this a pressurized system or DIY?
