水草情迷

Hi all,

Recently "reversed" my tank Used 3 pack of ADA black mud. After a week (yesterday) all fishes had been released to the tank and they seems quite enjoy the new setup. Today back home, I found that some black mud gains broken (I guest my shrimps or the couple of ram done that!!) and the core of mud are in white color tim.....a bit worry about they break and break again which become not totally black at all la......

BTY, the water still shows lightly cloudy....I've checked the filter and the medias are quite brown wor and added many pieces of fine white foam tim....should be enough bacteria la....just wait & wait

Furthermore, a question about the placing of the co2 bottle, according to the bottle instruction, the bottle should be placed up right when releasing co2....but acutally, I place it horizontally due to no place ma....but seems no problem......even the instruction says this would damage the meter head?? Really?? Does anybody place the bottle horizontally??

You should place the cylinder upright, placing it horizontally, when your cylinder is more than 1/2 through, you're releaseing CO2 in liquid form into the regulator. This will exhaust your cylinder quicker, and wear out the regulator faster as well.
