Hi,
I just made a DIY co2 with standard reciepe (sugar + water +yeast) connected to a air stone directly under HOB ac30, and about 90% if not all of the bubble go into the filter intake.
The water coming out of the filter is free falling for about an inch.
Q: Am i wasting co2? whats the recomendation for water level? all the way up to filter output so it doesnt waterfall or is 1 inch fall acceptable?
I did some reading but recieve different views.. some say the waterfall would push the co2 filled water deep into the tank and therefore spreading the co2, while other say the surface aggitation from the waterfall is wasting the co2..
What do you guys think?
