    Does anyone know the formula to calculate the ppm of CO2 with given pH and KH?

    My tank has pH of 6.6-6.8. There is no corresponding column on the usual pH-KH chart that I can get more accurate readings.

    Thanks.

    Use Chuck Gadd's calculator somewhere in here. His formula is right under the calculator.
    Vincent - AQ is for everyone, but not for 'u' and 'mi'.
    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
    A woman, without her man, is nothing.
    A woman: without her, man is nothing.

    The formula I use:

    CO2 (in mg/L) = 30328702.13 x KH x 10^(-pH)

    Thanks. Based on your formula, I have created a HTML page for it at:

    Anybody wants an Excel version of it?
