I have recently installed a Co2 reactor to my tank. Therefore my Fluval 205 - has its outlet hose connected directly to the C02 reactor - and - the C02 is injected into the reactor - mixed - and then returned to the tank. However the flow back into the tank is lower than when it was direct into the tank?
Do you think it matters? Should I increase the flow rate by getting a larger external filter? What do people on this forum have in terms of experience with Co2 reactors?
 
Sounds about right. you could add a splitter to the output of your filter so that some goes to the reactor and some just goes back to the tank. I've seen that done before. You could even join them back up again after the reactor so there is only one pipe back into the tank.
