Hello everyone. I know this question will depend on the recipe used so I'm looking for your experience. What is a good bubble rate output for the Hagen CO2 ladder system? Or any DIY CO2 setup? I've been working with my recipe but after a day or so I see a steep drop off of bubble rate. It starts at about 2-3 bubbles per second and drops to 1 per second by the end of the first day. After a week it is fairly constant at about 1 bubble every 1.5-2 seconds. I'm guessing here but I think I am not getting very much CO2 into my tank with this low of a bubble rate. Is there a general rate for I should be shooting for?
Also since I'm currently using the ladder would I see better absorption by switching to something like the Red Sea CO2 Reactor 200?
TIA
