I set it initially at 1 bubble per second for my 55 gallon. Then neasure Kh
and pH and calculate co2.
I use Chuck Gadd's calculator:

Then adjust bubble rate. This can be done two ways: a) turn off the Rio
pump so you can more easily see the bubble rate; or b) remove the small
plastic piece to which the co2 tube is connected. You can then watch/set
the bubble rate and re-insert it into the reactor.
Mine works great. Only issues a a) occasionally the pump input gets
clogged; but not too often; b) periodically, the sponge on the bottom
"blows" off and I have to retrieve it. No big deal.

Bob, looks good thanks.. How do you "set" the CO2 bubble rate???

Hello,
I'm running a pressurized CO2 injection system in my 30 gallon planted
tank... Currently, I'm using a membrane diffuser from M3... but I'm
concerned about it's efficiency. Anyone have any other products they
would
like to recommend??
Thanks,
Troy
