Best Way to Introduce CO2 in your Aquarium!

WERBEVIDEO | I've got a HUGE 2 month update on this 130x30x40cm aquarium and I install the best CO2 diffuser of 2022! ⬇️Click 'SHOW MORE' for full video description and links⬇️
Today we'll take a look at the 2 month update on this 130cm x 30cm x 40cm planted aquarium. The tank sits on a one-of-a-kind acrylic stand and the plant growth has been massive! I'll walk you through how each of the plant species is doing, and we'll discuss what fish I've added. Finally, I'll install the brand new Aquario Neo Mixer, an in-line CO2 diffuser built into the Neo Flow outflow.

Love the tank set up. I would say the fish are Serpae Tetra also know as Red Minor.

[@DeanR3]

Video on if the diffuser blocks the flow would be great, looks good and saves a break in filter lines for inline diffuser so would be interesting in a longer indepth look. Thanks dean

Those red fish are Serpae Tetra. I have them in my 15 gallon with some X-ray Tetras, and I got them to be a very deep red color with some live food and high quality pellets. Love your channel btw

[@dmn_gs7597]

Das müsste Hyphessobrycon eques sein in dem Scape. Tolle Entwicklung für die kurze Zeit! Und spannend, dass der Skimmer modifiziert wurde, werde mir den mal besorgen müssen und beim nächsten Becken vielleicht auch gleich die Variante mit dem Diffusor!

[@greenslovaktherapy]

Wau love this tank 😀💚Manzanita wood fits great in there 🙏perfect video Jurijs 😉

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

Yes it does! My favourite wood for aquascaping, you should try too 🙃

[@Nepo35]

Those red tetras are Serpae tetra (Hyphessobrycon eques)! They are not Red phantom tetra (Hyphessobrycon sweglesi). They are two different species! Serpae tetra can be easily distinguished from Red phantoms by the anal fin of the fish. It is edged in black and white in Serpae tetra but not in Red phantom tetras. Also, serpaes always have black markings on the dorsal fin whereas in red phantoms, only the females possess black markings on the dorsal fin.

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

best explanation, thank you!

[@donde1984]

Originated from Rio da prata Brazil its a blue fast moving river the species is called hyphessobrycon eques. Also if I'm not mistaken the second species I see Is Nannostomus mortenthaleri a coral red pencilfish.. I also see Gyrinocheilos aymonieri Chinese algae eater. I'm not sure if the silver tetra is another species or just juveniles that haven't colored up yet ,but if I'm not mistaken it can probably be hyphessobrycon pulchripinnis or Pristella maxillaris. Cheers 🍻.

[@subhankarbhattacharya2940]

How the diffuser in the outflow is any different from someone using an in-line co2 diffuser on the pipe coming out of the cannister filter .. I think the in-line diffuser attached to the canister outflow is much better as it stays in the pipes longer and hence gets dissolved more .. isn’t it ?

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

The travel time of the bubbles 🫧 inside the tubing does play a role, but it’s a minor, when pushed into the tank, the bubbles are tiny and float around for long enough to dissolve. As long as you don’t use a reactor, both methods are equally good dissolving CO2. However the classic inline Diffusor adds multiple joints to the system that can leak, it’s more difficult to clean and depending on the setup can mess up the tubing installation. Give the fact I prefer the Neoflow in and outflow pipes, adding the tiny mixer to the outflow is the best solution in my opinion.

[@kilzo8370]

Don’t you need something to agitate the surface for the fish oxygen?

[@NotYourAvgJoe24]

I think they are Serpae Tetras. Lovely tank too

Hi Jurijs, you mentioned the Fluitans not turning red because the tank is heavily fertilized. I’m facing the same with mine. I’d like to know which fert is preventing them from turning red.

Hello .. Does it make sense to place the CO2 so that it goes directly into the filter?

[@robita25]

The bacteria in Filter needs Oxygen to live,to evolve. I think with so much co2 can not stay alive

[@gbaquascaping63]

@@robita25 with circulation, 02 is granted , and, in other hand, there is an aquilibrium between ph aquarium and ph filter (is a system) . So, if the amount of co2 is correct (dont need excess, 30ppm is fine) , no matters fot bacteria if you disolve co2 in aquarium or filter. For some reason this is difficult to belive fot a lot of hobbist but is true. So, you can use external atomizers in the "in" of external filters without any problem. And, if higher the flow rate of the filter, the better it works 👌

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

I second that. However a possible disadvantage is higher risk of gas build up inside the filter, which theoretically can cause the pump to run dry and break. This is the reason no manufacturer officially recommends this method (I’ve talked to some who produce both external filters and inline diffusers)

[@gbaquascaping63]

@@JurijsJutjajevs hi, yes, but i used that method last two years and become my favourite..... is excelent in external filters with good flow (higher flows better works, in 3 tanks i use nicrew co2 atomizers in fluval 207, 407 and sunsun 1000l/h , in all works good, but better in 407 ) ... sometimes there is some gas and it pulverizes in the form of a mist but these are ephemeral and irrelevant events . Greetings

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

@@gbaquascaping63 yes I did the same on a Superjet ES-1200 with a JBL inline diffuser. It works and since the SuperJet has a very simple design, there is no risk for air build up imo. However, since there is potential risk remaining no manufacturer will recommend this method officially. Act at your own risk 😂and if its works for you - perfect! I would love to do a video comparing various methods and showing different hacks, which I know will lead to some unhappy email from brands ...

Red minor or serpae tetra

[@marymccannon5610]

I don't want to lower your spirit, #jurijsjutjajevs but these fish are Hyphessobrycon eques, or its' common name is Serpae Tetra. What I am really waiting for from Aquario is a lily-type part. In my opinion that would improve the level of dissolved CO2. With the jet (straight) end, a lot of gas goes to waste.

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

That’s true and a lot of new things are coming from Aquario. Meanwhile one can use the lilypipe accessory from the Dennrle Scapers flow filter 😉

[@lcpacar]

Red phantom tetra

[@slinkyscapes8530]

Scape is on fire 🔥 I don’t rate these Aqua Rio inline Co2 diffusers, they restrict the flow too much on low flow rate filters, meaning you need a stronger pump to compensate. Also don’t like the skimmer, skims the funk from the surface and pushes it back into the tank so any floating leaf matter has ti be removed manually, not the best idea.

[@JurijsJutjajevs]

I agree on floating plant matter, the surface Film however is constancy mixed with water and disappears. The advantage of this system is - food so not trapped inside a skimmer, which often lured shrimps to climb in and never come out

[@arkansasboy45]

Definitely phantom Tetras

Serpae Tetras... horrid things. Fin-shredders without any equal... I think I saw a Diamond Tetra in there at the start of the video? Poor thing had no tail fin left 😢 Some fin damage was apparent on a few of the Serpaes as well. A tank full of these nasty critters just looks untidy and sad because of the fin mutilation... Red Phantoms would have been a far better choice.
