Hey everyone, I had a few questions for you smarties 
Just made a DIY CO2 system last night and was wondering whats the best way to diffuse it? I have the CO2 line with air stone going to a small gatoraide bottle that has 3 sides cut out and weighed down to the bottom of the tank. Is this working well to Diffuse the CO2 or should I just put the air stone in my intake tube for HOB filter? Woke up this morning and my Diffuse bottle was floating from all the CO2 that was collected on the top near the cap.
Also I noticed on my "filter bottle" that 1 bubble is coming up every 2 seconds. Is this to much? I read that it needs to be 1 every 5 seconds.
My tank is a 29 gallon with a 65 watt compact and root tabs, Thinking I need to get some nutrients but still doing that research.
Please help by sharing your knowledge
Thanks and have a great day
