Formula for calculating CO2 levels?

[|squee|]

Is there a equation available to calculate c02 levels from kH and pH?

I'm writing up a Excel log file for my tanks, and I'm wondering if there's such a formula so when inputting pH and kH there won't be a need for me to go online to calculate my c02 ppm...

Thanks!

i think what i say might be useless, but if you download "chucks planted aquarium calculator", it actually has the table showing the triadic relationship. its a program so you need not go online.

it should be somewhere available for download on this forum.

cheers

Haha, not useless at all bro. I downloaded the program... it's great. Didn't know it has the function for calculating how much powder to add directly to the tank, so much easier :P

I've given up though. Tried searching the net but couldn't find. Thanks!

yup no prob.

the thing is useless for me cos i use diy Co2.
Cannister is still something tentative as im trying a glosso tank

cheers and happy planting

In Chuck's articles page, http://www.csd.net/~cgadd/aqua/articles.htm you can find the CO2 article. In that, he gave the formula.
