Hello All,
I was watching some stuff from Cary about Air Stone.
My understanding is that it is false to assume air stone are bad for CO2 injected tanks because in the air we breath there is CO2 and its being injected also from the Air stone. Did I get that right ?
Should I leave my air stone on 24/7 then ? Its setup a low intensity so it does very small and fine bubbles.
Also how much surface agitation is require, what is too much, or is their a too much ?
Water agitation in general, I just repositioned my CO2 diffuser, its connected inline with a water pump so that the CO2 dissolve better in the water, I moved it more to the center of my 125g because one end CO2 sensor was greener then the other end sensor because the aquarium is 5 feet long. Now instead of facing the length of the aquarium which is 5 feet, its facing the width which is 2 feet I believe.
By doing so it is creating a lot more water agitation in general ( not the surface), I can see the plants leaves moving around now pretty much everywhere in the aquarium. I put it center of the aquarium using a diffusing bar that was coming with an old filter I had. so the jets hits the opposite wall of the aquarium bouncing off it. Is that a bad thing, is it better if the water is moving less ?
Thanks in advance for your comments
