I've had 13 clown loaches for about 9-10 years, and the largest of the bunch is only about 5-6 inches long. I have them all in a 75 gallon that is heavily planted. I have never seen them burrow into...

Well, MY loaches have already gone through the "OOPS! Too much CO2" thing once before. These loaches are about 8+ years old. I, too, once gassed them pretty good -- killed quite a few of the smaller...

That's the little known species "Albino Nocturna". :icon_roll heh heh
I don't know what it might be. I've never seen anything 'white-ish' in color like that in my tank.

I DON'T think my fish have problems with high CO2
There has been lots of discussion about monitoring CO2 levels by judging the behavior of the tank's inhabitants. That makes more sense than trying to calculate levels, measure this or that, etc. My...

I'd go with something similar to #2, as well. I've seen some mixed reviews (mostly bad) about the powered reactor in #1; and, it's a pretty expensive part of the combo. The diffuser in #2 is a better...

Yea, set a powerhead in the sump, push CO2 into THAT powerhead, and have an output hose leading right to the return pump's intake. That'd really chop everything up. Then, the micro bubbles (if there...

Hell, that's almost 3 watts per gallon! The light's good. And, I agree with "prjtc...(whatever)", 6500K is better (but not essential).
Give us some chemistry stats, if you're testing.:)
