Please help. using this for a 4 1.5 1.5 tank. Reactor? or this atomizer?


Best place for me to purchase is in the east

PetMart @ Serangoon North sells it too...

[benlauhh]

Think i saw C328 selling this too. Colourful i think dont carry...or maybe not yet.

[jeffteo]

C328 only sells 1 size I think. Few times I saw that are available are for the 16mm tubing only.

[thebaldingaquarist]

got my 12/16mm version at seaview.
a word of warning, this atomiser requires high pressure to work.

I changed my bubble counter and stop valve to ANS ones (cos 1 piece and no parts to attach) because it was leaking due to the pressure.

Now running at 1BPs, no fine bubbles. I am assuming that the CO2 is completely dissolved.

[bernie]

Advisable to use CO2 tubing too because of the high pressure.

Seaview sell the cheapest

[jeffteo]

What thing cheapest? The Atomizer or ANS CO2 tubing? C328 price should be OK also. Add in transport charges may end up to be the same as it is just a few dollars different.

[ZackZhou]

Atomizer haha. $28+ after discount

[ZackZhou]

For 12/16mm by the way.

[Shadow]

seriously? that is $10 cheaper, 25+% discount

[bernie]

Will this equipment inhibit the outflow?

[Shadow]

nope, it should not, water will just pass though it.

[thebaldingaquarist]

Another point to take note.

If ever your CO2 tank is disconnected, you will see that the diffuser will slowly start to fill with water. be sure to mount a stop valve there.

My setup :

CO2 ---stop valve --- bubble counter --- stop valve --- diffuser.

[benlauhh]

Good point!

[ZackZhou]

Shadow yes, it's around 10 bucks cheaper. If I'm not wrong, Gc bring in by themselves 1st. Now more distributors brings in brought down the price

[jeffteo]

I guess waiting awhile more the price should drop further especially with the new series of inline atomizer they introduced recently.
Maybe during Aquarama will have better discount...

OT abit,
for those already using this product, how many BPS do you have to go up to, to see air bubbles?

i am using the 12/16mm version. now at 2 BPS, no air bubbles or misting.

[Shadow]

mine OK at 2bps. It depend on where you put it. the bubble might 100% dissolve before coming out from the filter outlet.

Do you have drop checker? it will tell you whether there is CO2 or not. If it is change color at least you know that it work even though not misting seen
