Hi Boon yong, welcome to AQ.. I presume yr bubble counter is working rite? wat kinda co2 u using? DIY or cylinder? if its DIY, then the pressure isnt enuff to push the c02 out of the ceramic plate.. if its a cylinder then u better check, pressure built up has to go somewhere, perharps there is a leak somewhere... is the surface of the ceramic still the same color as the first day u bought it?----------------

Hi, I am a beginner at planted tanks. Started using a cheap taiwan brand diffusor 3 months ago. Now i am having problems releasing CO2. Not too sure what the problem is. is it due to algae on the diffusor surface? But based on what i can see, there doesn't seem to have any algae. When i disconnect the bubble counter from the diffusor, i can still see the bubbles emitting from my co2 tank into the bubble counter. the moment i reconnect it, the bubbles stop. I suspect there is some pressure that is stopping the release. Please, can anyone help???
