Very nice setup... looks fantastic :D

Inspiring!


[off topic - ish]
However... I swore that I'd never again use a CO2 system on our plec tanks after a system problem nearly wiped out £300 of plecs - it killed about £50 of stock - thankfully the plecs made it ok (after finding them lying on their backs in the sand and not breathing. I saw one small pump of an L134's chest while I was holding it to dispose of.. moved them all straight to another tank (the zeb tank) and they had perked up and started bickering about caves within 30 mins!.

At least yours is computer controlled and it the PH falls too low the system will shut off - the regulator on mine went and just kept pumping co2 into the tank... the PH was at about 4 when I got home from work!

i think you should only use CO2 on planted tanks regardless of whats in it other wise the depleted O2 will get way to low, if you have live plants in there then they would produce enough 02 for the fish to live.
