wow thanks for sharing sisaiko. does these plants need high light requirements?

cousins of lagenandra and crypts.... nice

wow, nice collection..
but seems its in emerse form, right???
this 1 also can include in low tech plant????

kind of inerested to include in my crypt tank (sort of)...

btw, still my bubble counter empty after i installed another check valve..
please help me...

where did you place your bubble counter? is it same level with your Co2 tank? or same level as your aquarium?. when i place my bubble counter at aquarium sidewall, i didnt have that problem anymore.

Are this for sell? Pm me if yes, tq

the bubble counter is slightly higher than the co2 tank and at the tank's side wall

both the check valve i installed are after tank, before bubble counter
CO2 tank------->NRV------>NRV----->bubble counter------->tank

What do you guys think about this?

But this is a valid concern as well.

I have no idea what you're trying to say. Its DIY.

kimi san,

try this

CO2 tank------->NRV------bubble counter------->NRV----->tank

kimi : i got same problem too. but as i think its normal becoz the water will dissipate after some time of use. its becoz the bubbles make splashes when it burst at the water surface inside the bubble counter. thus, the gas carries the evaporated water to the aquarium (not the co2 tank).

the trouble is that we need to refill the water once in a blue moon.

i kept mine going 24/7 on manual regulator, no on-off solenoid la...

*also, if ur tube is clear/transparent type, if there's water inside the tube from co2 tank to the bubble counter, then ur check valve got problem lo.... if there's water droplets after bubble counter but before the aquarium, i think its normal.

hope above helps. other sifus may chip in if i'm incorrect.

Added on August 3, 2012, 1:29 pmi believe its 28c or 29c. as mentioned, there are 2 tank side by side. same setup. only 1 tank is with the cooling fan. so its a fair test. however, becoz its small tank, its easier to see the water temp swings. 1-2c on small tank should be faster to see the effect of temp swings.

[/quoteno wonder I can't found it

deric ya. its DIY.

use syringe + check valve. can DIY this weekend liao!! ahaha

kimi : this is for you : auto top up tank

its similar to what i saw. but of course, this is DIY while the one i saw is much more sleek and pleasing to the eye.. hehehe.

the concept is the same

The thing is the syringe which i saw is very solid so cutting it seems difficult. And moreover, the check valve will be filled with water in no time so im not sure to do it or not.

max, as i know, the syringe can be pulled apart. no need to cut it and no need to get super grade stuff. or are you referring to cutting the syringe tip to get the air tubes to fit?

just those once off disposable are good enough.

The auto refill is nice, my tank using fan , everyday need topup around 5 little, if I out station for few days how
.? Currently I using auto refill with timer control.

deric : auto timer got issue if your tank suddenly empty.. then again, i think you got the experience.

as long as you know what you're doing, its fine

yeah... can be pulled apart... have read about his before.. its diy...

here the step...

http://www.aquaticquotient.com/forum/showt...-and-checkvalve

if i put NRV after bubble counter (BC), how water gonna fill in the BC???

how to refill the BC??
later will check the tube after tank, before NRV.. hopefully, no water backflow to co2 tank....


this is nice and i got both the items..
maybe can try it later..

thx for sharing max_cjs0101 for the DIY bubble counter and jctasoga for the auto top up
