Do I have my reactor set up right ?

I see how the co2 gets forced into the reactor and I see how water gets forced down into it, but where does the co2 enter the water, how does it escape the reactor?

Do I open the open/close valve on top or is that just for attaching another reactor ?
Does the co2 escape from the bottom, I just don't see bubbles?

Thx,

Dave

The reactor dissolves the CO2 into the water...thus you shouldn't see bubbles escaping at the bottom, just CO2 enriched water...which looks like water ;)
 
Thanks a lot malkore. I've got the tank all together now, plants, fish, co2.
It's going to be interesting in watching it grow and take shape. You, cz, hoovercat, green, JC and a few names I can't remember have been a big help in setting up my first co2 tank :)

Thx,

Dave
