Glass CO2 diffuser for use with most planted aquarium CO2 systems
*
Helps optimize carbon dioxide supplementation in planted aquariums
*
Specially designed to maximize CO2 diffusion into aquarium water
Specially-designed glass CO2 diffuser optimizes carbon dioxide supplementation in planted aquariums. Increases contact time between CO2 and aquarium water. In addition, a ceramic diffuser plate dissolves 99% of CO2 that passes through it. The result is highly efficient use of carbon dioxide for optimum CO2 supplementation. For use with most CO2 systems.

Carbon Dioxide Supplementation Tips
The two basic requirements for healthy aquarium plants are light and proper carbon dioxide (CO2) levels. Through a process called "photosynthesis," aquarium plants use light energy and CO2 to produce food necessary for lush growth. As plants develop, they use up their existing supply of carbon dioxide. Installing a CO2 system is essential to prevent low CO2 levels and to maintain active plant growth.
CO2 supplementation is usually contingent upon light intensity. In general, heavily planted aquariums with high output light fixtures will require a CO2 system to keep up with the greater plant demand for carbon dioxide.
Routinely monitor aquarium pH when supplementing CO2 levels. Excess CO2 can create conditions harmful to fish including low oxygen levels and drops in aquarium pH.

Every organic molecule of every living organism is predominantly carbon based. Given this simple fact, it becomes clear why carbon dioxide plays a pivotal role in the planted aquarium. Greg Morin, President/CEO, Seachem Laboratories, Inc. explains.
