1. You can close the controller or you can use an air pump. 2. No smell and it will not harm live stock if CO2 is in the right quantity. Use CO2 indicator.
Very informative video, Thank you . I have 160 litre tank, how much Co2 do I need?

Yes add CO2 only when the light is ON. Use a CO2 Drop Checker/Indicator to check the amount of CO2 in the water column.

Sorry not connector what is the use of T connector?
@AmudhAquascapes
9 ай бұрын
After chemical reaction, the CO2 released goes to the citric acid bottle and builds the pressure through the T connector. Which prevents moving citric acid to baking soda bottle. You can know more here about the equilibrium www.co2supermarket.co.uk/diy-co2-kit-setup-instructions-guide-6.html
How much is the price of the caps and doest the air controller leak?

1. If you start it once you don't have to do it again. 2. Yes, they are coke bottles. Use only soda bottles they only can withstand the pressure. 3. You can stop it by releasing the pressure with the air control valve in the A cap. Instead you can put a air pump on timer (this is the better way).

Hello Anna. I tried this setup, CO2 is getting generated (CO2 is released from tubes in big bubbles) but when I connect diffuser, it is not sending any CO2 out.. any suggestions?
@AmudhAquascapes
5 ай бұрын
Please check for leakage around the caps and joints using soap water or you can submerge the entire setup into a bucket of water. If the pressure won't build up, the CO2 diffuser won't work.
