I'm not sure I want to keep the HC anyway. Now might be the time to take it in for a trade in. LOL.
I didn't realize that stopping CO2 injection could lead to plants melting. How are people (and nature) able to grow plants without injecting CO2? Do the plants somehow change their anatomy in a CO2 injected tank?
