Bubble Trouble?

[techen]

One word, Bubbles.
 
Why is there so many bubbles. There not even on the plants anymore, There on the glass, wood, substrate. Nothing has changed but these randomly keep appearing D:
 

 

 

[Shelster]

Wow, so it's not pearling then??

 

[techen]

Unless wood pearls, I don't think so.

 

[Shelster]

What I meant was you may well have supersaturation in your water - meaning you have more than 100% oxygen saturation in your tank, therefore little gas bubbles are appearing everywhere.

 

[techen]

Over 100%? That's insaneeeee xD

 

[SLIM]

Not pearling unless

A) He is running a pressurised system, or
B) Just performed a water change?

 

[techen]

Am running two 2L bottles of yeast, So yes CO2 Injection. I haven't changed the water for 6 days, WC is 2mro.

 

[SLIM]

Could be pearling then. Do you have srong current? Do you see the odd bubble shooting to the surface of the water?

 

[techen]

Some of the plants have steady streams of bubbles coming from them but never on this scale, This is mad.

 

[Shelster]

I reckon it's supersaturation

SLIM enjoy your holiday XD

 

[SLIM]

You should see me tank. Could it be possible that the current is moving the oxygen from the plants to the wood and glass?
Do you get it towards the end of your photoperiod?

I reckon it's supersaturation SLIM enjoy your holiday XD

am sitting in the sun as we speak XD

 

[techen]

Uhm, This is the first time it's done it this scale since I started high tech. There's still a while of light left and it started a few hours after lights on.
 
I need to trim plants anyway and move stuff, I might let the hairgrass go as the other plant I have keeps sending out runners and its uprooting my hairgrass

 

[levahe]

How would supersaturation occur?

 

[Zikofski]

I get the same thing towards the end of the photoperiod as shelter says I recon its that too as we'll as your oxygen being blown around by the flow I don't get it that bad but I go get it a lot on plants and wood not so much on glass

 

[DrRob]

It is indeed supersaturation. It's kinda hot out there and water doesn't hold gases as well the hotter it gets.
