I want to do a heavily planted aquarium stocked with fish. I am thinking of putting in a reverse flow undergravel filter with a low output and then run my Co2 and fertilizers through the filter. That will allow more time for the gas to disolve in the water as it works its way through the substrate and gravel. I would think this would also help to replenish the substrate. If the plants pick up Co2 both through their roots and leaves this would give them more of an opportunity to absorb what they need.
Do most plants tolerate undergravel filters?
Has anyone seen this type of set up? Will this work well?
Please advise.
