Ok Ive started a new thread

Leigh Stated earlier
"I am considering switching to some kind of reactor, or injecting directly
into the filter intake, in hopes of lowering the maintenance required.
You
do have to rinse the Eheim diffusor's ceramic disk every week or two, to
keep the CO2 bubble size small."

Is the eheim made for this, or are you just putting the air tube into the
intake line in the tank?

I have a Magnum 350, would the gas just create a large air pocket in the
canister, or would it be disolved? Anyone tried this?

Thanks!


Just shove it up the eheim intake, it works like a charm in my 2213. Every
hour or two the canister filter makes a bit of a swishing noise for a couple
of minutes but thats just the impeller chopping up the CO2 bubbles. It's
never woken me up at night. It's probably a good idea to make sure you
clean out your filter every couple of months to prevent crud build up in the
filter which may possibly cause the impeller to stall when swishing the
bubbles which I've read has been known to occur in very rare instances.
