What CO2 flow rate ?
I'm deciding whether I need a better CO2 reactor or not.
How many bubbles per minute do most people use on their tanks ?
At the moment I use about 60 per minute with just a small crude reactor in a heavily plated 2 ft tank. This maintains a pH of around 7.0 & 15ppm CO2.
Thanks
Jason

I have mine set on 3 bubbles per second and that is putting about 33ppm Co2, Ph 6.3 and KH 2.2, i think you need to increase your Co2 to about 30ppm and then you will see better imrovments in growth by plants, 16 is not enough
