all things equal I'd take LED over T5 any day, replacing bulbs every year adds up not to mention the electricity savings.

Only question is whether or not that led light is as powerfull.

ok so apparently the 16g, cartridges don't last very long. I'm going to clean out the diffuser and change out my drop checker then try again.

sounds possible, I haven't had many gouramis but of those I've had none of them were aggressive. But seeing as you've noticed it harrasing your tetras I wouldn't be suprised.

Diffuser problem

I have a glass diffuser for my co2 and it has developed an issue where it puts out one stream of larger bubbles at low levels, I have to turn it up to get small bubbles. Is there any way to fix this?
