Plant Newbie Advice Needed
 
I just started my first planted tank. I have a standard Hagen 25W kit with
the standard 24 inch Aqua-Glo fluorescent.

My PH is 7.6 and need to lower it for the fish anyways.

I am debating whether to add CO2? What do you think? I know about the DYI
ones but looking at the Hagen Plant-Gro :

I'm also wondering if I can use this unit as reactor or use my own mixture.

Thanks,

Frank

Co2 will help lower your PH as well as help out your plants. Just
keep in mind a yeast syetem must be restarted every 2 - 3 weeks and a
canister system (i.e 20 lb tank) can go years without a refill.

Where does one refill those things?


Liquor stores. It's the same tank restaurants and bars use for carbonated
beverages.

Years! Wow was not aware of that. I assume your talking about the
pressurized systems. Where does one refill those things? or do you have to
get a new one every time?
