    Nature deals with fluctuating degrees of expansion and contraction within miniscule parameters of change,,,, by adding more of ANYTHING is a micro biome than would naturally occur you will create an imbalance that will eventually manifest detrimental circumstances similarly to an engine,,,, if one aspect is not working effectively and in proportion to all others it can throw out all other elements one after the other with regular iterations just enough for an eventually total crash or failure....! A MICRO BIOME exists and sustains due to MORE specific and intricate circumstances than an actually biome....! YOU CAN NOT EFFECTIVELY PREDICT THESE OCCURENCES USING LINEAR THOUGHT PROCESSES ,,,YOU NEED TO AT LEAST ATTEMPT TO INVISION WHAT YOU ARE EFFECTING DYNAMICALLY.......!

    I bought the Aquario Neo co2 kit and followed the directions perfectly but the bubble rate is only at like 1 bubble every 4 seconds its not enough to push out the diffuser. Im not sure what is going wrong.

    Fill the second bottle with more water so that the CO2 can go into the aquarium instead of filling up the empty space.

    I always catch your videos, your attitude is wonderful. In the future, consider a SS co2 generator with solenoid. They last a whole month with citric acid and baking soda and shut off at night. Tank looks healthy.

  • @Anthony-lb8vd

    There would be better co2 production if the fermenting mix were in a darker place. That light isn’t helping the co2 process.

    What is the baking soda for?

    • @MrSoggyjocks
      @MrSoggyjocks Před 10 měsíci

      The baking powder produces co2 when it hits the water. I am not sure that it helps with fermentation, so maybe an initial co2 kickstart while the yeast fires up? Maybe...? I've seen people add gelatin to their mixtures, to slow down sugar consumption and make the co2 last longer. But they were in relatively cold parts of the world, i am not sure how well that would hold up her in Australia.
