Does Co2 Injection Matter?

[Sheridanp]

I ask this because I want to inject CO2 into my tank because of the general hardness(KH) is over 300. Will this hurt my fish or cause any trouble? Also, how much do I use?

This would probbly do much better in the planted section. As long as you monitor the levels of co2 it's safe for fish.

But I'm lowering my KH, I don't even have plants.

I know, but in the planted section there are many in depth articles and charts involving co2 and how it affects the other water perameters. Unfortunately I don't know my way around the planted section to point you in the right direction but give this link a shot. This should help to understand just the basic workings of co2.

Ok, I guess it will do better. Thanks.
