DIY CO2 System for Planted Aquarium | Citric Acid and Baking Soda Method

[@Dreamgrover]

Hi bro, like the setup , just one doubt. What if I want to turn off the supply at night . Will the gas pressure escapes without building up pressure inside the bottle and chances of bursting ?

[@dilsdful]

Which method is best for 2feet tank. Sugar + yeast or baking soda + citric acid bro

[@James-ik1rv]

Super bro. How long does the acid come?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Thanks. It works for 16 days for my 50cm tank.

[@kiranupadhya1069]

Very informative video, Thank you . I have 160 litre tank, how much Co2 do I need?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Use a CO2 indicator to check the amount of CO2 amzn.to/4c1j4Xq

[@idiesoucanlive_yt1804]

Hello sir, I have tried this method, and it's working fine. However, the issue is that the CO2 supply stops every 5 to 10 minutes, and I have to manually press bottle A to get the CO2 flowing again. What could be causing this problem? I've followed the instructions exactly as given, and there are no leaks. Is there a solution for this?

[@shaikirfan1363]

It means the pressure is leaking otherwise it won’t stop

[@idiesoucanlive_yt1804]

@@shaikirfan1363 ok how to know where it is leaking?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Use soap water to check bro

Hi bro, 1. Is this safe? 2. Blast Aaha yedha Chances irukka? 3. Off Panna mudivuma? 4. 2 feet tank yedhana naal Vaum?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

1. It is safe 2. Yes. Sometimes it happens. 3. No. It will run for 24 hours. 4. 10 to 15 days depends on the plant mass.

[@rjmech-il2lk]

How much we need to provide CO2 bro for 60p tank bro and light should be on while providing CO2 bro ?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Yes add CO2 only when the light is ON. Use a CO2 Drop Checker/Indicator to check the amount of CO2 in the water column.

[@subhampatra1507]

How much is the price of the caps and doest the air controller leak?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Please check the link in the video description for price. It doesn't, it is best to check for leakage.

[@charleskiran02-11]

Hi bro how r u. Where we will get all those caps and other plastic materials

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Please check the description. Buying link for all the items are there.

[@ganesharjunan6813]

Hi sir can we use oxigen control value instead of pneumatic flow control valve

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Yes, you can. Make sure that the air valve doesn't leak.

[@trivenkat]

Excellent bro awaiting for this long time. 1. How to stop during not co2 required time 2. Any smell or any harmmess for sensitive fishes and shrimps

[@AmudhAquascapes]

1. You can close the controller or you can use an air pump. 2. No smell and it will not harm live stock if CO2 is in the right quantity. Use CO2 indicator.

[@charlesaaron2493]

Can I keep both the bottles below the fish tank? That is my tank is on the table. Please let me know.

[@AmudhAquascapes]

It is always safe to keep the bottles below the table.

[@charlesaaron2493]

@@AmudhAquascapes thanks a lot for your time 👍 Also please let me know 1. How many times I should press the bottle in a day? 2. The bottle you've used is a normal Coke bottle? 3. How to stop the process at night time?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

1. If you start it once you don't have to do it again. 2. Yes, they are coke bottles. Use only soda bottles they only can withstand the pressure. 3. You can stop it by releasing the pressure with the air control valve in the A cap. Instead you can put a air pump on timer (this is the better way).

[@charlesaaron2493]

Thanks a ton bro...

[@vikneshv5209]

I have done the same setup as per you instruction but co2 is not generated what to do?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Did you use baking soda or baking powder? If you used baking soda then check for leakage around the caps and joints.

[@vikneshv5209]

I have used baking soda, and there is no leak, when i remove diffuser i can see bubbles coming when diffuser is fixed co2 is not coming

[@vikneshv5209]

Is started after sometime, but over night all citrict acod water is transferred to baking soda and looks i have to again refill baking soda and citric acid? What could be the reason

[@benstoneify]

​@@AmudhAquascapesthanks for all your reply.

[@shankarvg5118]

Sorry not connector what is the use of T connector?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

After chemical reaction, the CO2 released goes to the citric acid bottle and builds the pressure through the T connector. Which prevents moving citric acid to baking soda bottle. You can know more here about the equilibrium www.co2supermarket.co.uk/diy-co2-kit-setup-instructions-guide-6.html

[@lordofsiva4211]

In this method the same quantity of material will use in diy system how many days it will work

[@AmudhAquascapes]

2-3 weeks for a 30L Aquarium with medium plant mass.

Good surface agitation will help the gas exchange or you can use an air pump when the light is off.

Hello Anna. I tried this setup, CO2 is getting generated (CO2 is released from tubes in big bubbles) but when I connect diffuser, it is not sending any CO2 out.. any suggestions?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Please check for leakage around the caps and joints using soap water or you can submerge the entire setup into a bucket of water. If the pressure won't build up, the CO2 diffuser won't work.

[@lathikpriyadharshini]

No Anna, leaks yengayum ila.. pressure build agi iruku.. my bottles became stone hard after reacting with full gas. When I use DIY diffuser with syringe, Co2 is coming.. I think something wrong with the diffuser.. is there any way to treat the diffuser?

[@AmudhAquascapes]

Which diffuser are you using? Please use bleach to treat the diffuser and try again. kzbin.infoZ2XcI1HP8N4?feature=share
