i use the cheap glass bubble counters off ebay, comes complete with a glass check valve too.
OO a question on bubble counters.
Which is a good kind to get?
We're using the one we got w/ the regulator and it's complete crap.
It fills up w/ tank water even w/ those things that are supposed to prevent that in place.. check valves. Don't know what to do to prevent that from happening. Probably occuring b/c of the filter we're using as the diffuser being on when the CO2 is off at night.
Might try shutting that off as well when the CO2 turns off.. *shrugs* Any advice would be great
Also.... getting brown algae in the tank. Now the tank is still pretty much new... so is the brown algae inevitable? Even with co2 and all the plants?
Yes, I have read many times that you should use special tubing for CO2 but I don't know what material those special lines are made out of and mostly I've heard the "CO2 causes deterioration of normal airline" story but I don't know how seriously that's taken. (?)
