Tropica CO2 System Nano
A Plant Growth System Nano is a desirable solution for precise Co2 dosage for small aquariums (up to 60L). Co2 addition benefits the growth of all plants and improves colour development.
-
A complete Co2 system with an elegant nano design
-
A precise and stable Co2 regulation
-
A 3-in-1 diffuser, which ensures a maximum Co2 efficiency
-
Ensure that the regulator is fully off before you mount the regulator on the Co2 cartridge.
-
Fill the diffuser-chamber with water.
-
Place the cartridge in the rack, slide the suction cups on the hose and mount the hose to the regulator and the diffuser.
-
Mount the diffuser with the suction cups at the inner side of the tank near the bottom and place the hose in the back corner.
-
Leave the diffuser for 24hr in the tank to ensure the ceramic disc is fully moistened.
-
Open the regulator carefully and count the number of bubbles per minute in the diffuser-chamber.
-
Wait 5 minutes, adjust and repeat until the number of bubbles per minute is similar to the recommendation in the table.
The table shows recommended dosage (bubbles per minute) in different tank sizes. A 95 g CO2 cartridge contains 50,000 ml CO2.
The most important nutrient for plants is CO2.
The natural CO2 level in an aquarium is 0-0.5 mg/L of water. Even the slightest addition of CO2 can make a big difference improving the growth and vigour of the plants.
If the aquarium contains only slow-growing Easy-plants, the addition of CO2 gas into the water should reach a level of approx. 3 mg/L to ensure good growth conditions.
For Medium category plants the CO2 requirement is approximately 10 mg/L and for Advanced plants approx. 25 mg/L.
make life easy for yourself, we have inline solenoids in stock so no need to switch your Co2 on and off daily let the solenoid do the work.
