I have a 6x2x2ft partially planted tank that is closer to heavily planted than lightly. I run one 5lt diy co2 bottle that is hooked straight into my filter pick-up with 1gal of water, 2 cups white sugar & 1/2tsp bakers yeast. My co2 levels vary between 14 & 20ppm. Without the co2 bottle hooked up the co2 level soon drops to just 3ppm. I have read numerous posts that claim diy co2 is no good on any tank over about 40gal. Am I just lucky or is there some other explanation as to why my co2 rig works so well?
I'm certainly not complaining. Just curious.
