I'm sure this is a totally redundant question, but I have jungle val and use metricide for c02. When I got the Jungle val it was 10 inches. Now some of it is over 18 inches tall, but some of it has melted, even some of the tallest pieces have melt so it's confusing.

How long did you guys wait until you got C02 set ups after starting your first planted tanks?

Maybe that's the real question.
 
I found val did seem to melt with glut dosing and had to acclimatise it by starting off with a light dose and gradually increasing. For some reason I found the narrow leaf val to be most susceptible.
