  1. Filter disperses the co2 output entirely, is it good?

    Update I have the answer, I believe The hard white Teflon gasket will go into the w21-8 female nut of the adapter ONLY if there wasn't a already pre installed O-Ring on the Regulator Stem Otherwise there is no use for it The soft silicone rubber washer will fitt into the tr 21 4 adapter nut...
  2. Filter disperses the co2 output entirely, is it good?

    I have stated it's an internal filter + powerhead connected through a long tubing from substrate level into a two rows spray bar just alongside the filter.
  3. Filter disperses the co2 output entirely, is it good?

    Well, now that I finished with that CO2 stabilization (I was running diy for 2-3 years, so this is a huge thing), I would like to optimize my water circulation. So here's the components: only one internal filter and powerhead connected to a two rows spray bar. how to optimize planted aquarium...
  4. Filter disperses the co2 output entirely, is it good?

    Well, for anyone who interested just an update, that fixed the leak on the cylinder side, and no pressure dropping anymore, staying steady on ~1000psi The only thing now is just with all the preliminary handling of the system, the regulator slightly dropped to the floor and the bubble counter...
  5. Filter disperses the co2 output entirely, is it good?

    Well, system wasn't connected properly so initially the adapter wasn't tight strong enough to the regulator, only by hand, so I used a spanner and the lfs approved this is ok now. However the other main leak is between the brass elbow adapter and the sodastream cylinder, for the simple reason...
  6. Filter disperses the co2 output entirely, is it good?

    I know the answer is "Yes, this is excellent. Having your filter fully disperse the CO2 output is exactly what you want in a planted aquarium. When CO2 bubbles are completely broken down or pushed throughout the tank by the filter's flow, it means the gas is dissolving efficiently into the water...
  7. Pogostemon Issue

    Week aqua 50w mounted 17 above the water surface Just recently reduced its intensity from 80 to 70%, so it obviously a too intense light issue. Here a photo of an old layout where I believe the light was set to 40%, see how the same pogostemon having an upright growth pattern However, I suspect...
  8. Pogostemon Issue

    Hi, why the pogostemon stellatus bending and leaning like that
  9. Lighting problem

    Actually, I think it grew strictly upright when this light was set to 40% Additionally, this could be an uneven currents issue
  10. Lighting problem

    Hi, why the pogostemon stellatus bending like that, light too strong? I had this plant growing in the same tank with same lights in previous layout, growing strictly upright, though it was positioned in the middle. Obviously light issue. Though the lights are hq high intensity week aqua 50w...
  11. Suggestions for this tank

    So you suggest that "At a very high pH, non-EDDHA iron chelates (like Fe-EDTA or Fe-DTPA) lose their stability, causing the iron to separate, oxidize into insoluble iron hydroxides, and precipitate out of the water column where it becomes unavailable to plants." Could be consumed by roots later...
  12. Suggestions for this tank

    Hi, tell me, I came to the understanding that the commercial iron fertilizer I use is practically useless with the pH which I haven't yet measured but absolutely 8 and beyond. So I just acquired EDDHA 6% which is active up to ph 9. About to mix some according to online calculator, but understand...

    Emersed aquatic plants growth
  14. Suggestions for this tank

    Well, not that many sell the tenso cocktail, mostly in western Europe where their website not even support English, having to translate every page within their website, and absolutely none ship to Israel. All the salts so far I have acquired from a supplier from India, shipping globally...
  15. Emersed Planting

    Well, told you I would know how they got this section of rotala to be such dense and compact ;)
