[quote:b7f318fbc3="carlfsk"]Hi guys, just for discussion. Have anyone thought of injecting CO2 into the tank through the inflow tube? In this manner, the CO2 will be fully dissolved inside the canister before it flows back into the tank.
Initially my thought is whether the CO2 injected and at the same time dissolved within the canister, will it cause corrosion or whatever damages to it and resulting it’s malfunction? However on second thoughts, even if a diffuser/reactor is used in the tank, the water with dissolved CO2 will still flow back into the canister thus rendering damages, if it does. SO it’s back to square one.
If it’s the same whether we inject CO2 through the canister’s inflow tube or in tank througha diffuser/reactor, then why are we still using a reactor/diffusor then?
Would you like to discuss on this?[/quote:b7f318fbc3]
I believe the problem isn't about corrosion but the result of burning out the motor in the cannister filter... co2 bubbles raising to the top of the cannister when the motor is located... This will cause problem if the Co2 isn't dissolved fast enough and the air pocket increases, meaning the motor isn't submerge into water
