Co2 And Other Things

[milindsaraswala]

I have 8 gallon tank with only 1 plant and it is doing well now in just 1 week. I am putting lights for 8 - 10 hours a day daily. I can see some small amount of growth in my plants without CO2.

But now I am thinking to put CO2, with more new plants. So I was looking from you guys that what nutrition and amount of CO2 should I put what water parameter should I keep in mind

Next thing I am trying to make DIY CO2 can anyone give me idea how can I control CO2 flow at night.

Please I will very appreciate you people advice

It really depends on what you want to grow. What do you have in there now. I really suggest you have a look at PARC or even our members section and check out a couple of the journals. I have a tank that is also an 8g. It is between scapes right now. What is the make of your tank and what lighting do you have?
