This is too cool. I've got a compressed air tank. What else would I need???? Something to regulate pressure but it would start lower than a CO2 tank so this could be much simpler and cheaper. Then feed it into diffuser by powerhead and we're off and running. Any thoughts? Refills by my own compressor or bring it to the gas station - lol...........
I'm going to try this tomorrow.........

The key here is bubble size, it needs to be very fine.
I know folks have tried vigorously aerating and in certain part of the tank you can see good results from this, but at higher levels of finer aeration, I wonder if this could be improved.
If so, that would be a radical change, no CO2, no CO2 dosing , no CO2 fish kills and better growth than non CO2 etc.
Dissolving O2 is not the goal, getting the bubbles very small and onto the plant leaves is the goal.
