• PH - 7.5

• KH - 4

• GH - 4

Hello Scapers

I wanted to share my thoughts and experiences injecting CO2 for the first time a little over a year ago on my 65 and my first impressions running my 16 without CO2 for about 2 months.

To be fair we are not really comparing apples to apples here as the 65 has more room for failure than a 16 as changes (and "oops" changes or oh %&!# !!!) are seen a lot quicker in tanks with smaller volume. In addition as I stated above, the 65 has been online for over a year while the 16 has only circulated water with plants fo…
