Up Aqua CO2 Glass Diffuser Suitable for Nano Aquariums
The 2cm disc dissolves CO2 efficiently. Outside diameter: 3cm, Height: 4cm. Suitable for nano aquariums up to 30L.
This should be taken as a guide as it may work effectively in larger volume aquariums, if flow and placement are optimal.
Recommended for use with pressurised CO2 systems.
Introduction:
The Up Aqua Glass CO2 Diffuser is a fuse of quality and affordability; ensuring that you get an excellent quality glassware component. Designed for use with a pressurised CO2 system, this CO2 diffuser ensures that your CO2 is efficiently dissolved into your aquarium water through the use of a 2cm ceramic disc mounted inside the diffuser. It is ideal for growing healthy plants in a nature aquarium, where a stable and sufficient CO2 level is essential.
High quality glassware ensures that it looks the part in even the highest quality nature aquarium, whether it be on display at the front of the tank or, thanks to the transparent properties of glass, hidden away at the back.
Each glass diffuser is handmade and unique - varying ever so slightly in shape and appearance.
To Use:
Simply connect the CO2 diffuser to your bubble counter one way valve and regulator using CO2 Tubing.
Using the supplied suction cup, place the diffuser in the front corner of your aquarium. The ideal placement varies depending on water flow, aquarium size and a variety of other factors; but this is a good position to begin with.
To set the regulator working pressure wait for sufficient pressure to build up and begin forcing CO2 through the bubble counter, You will now regulate the pressure to have around 3 - 4 bubble per second coming out. Once enough pressure has built up in the diffuser you should start seeing micro fine bubbles coming from the ceramic disc.
If this doesn't happen within 30 minutes, gradually increase the working pressure until it does. Ideally, the small bubbles that the diffuser produce should spread evenly around the whole tank, ensuring a uniform spread of CO2.
We recommend that you heat the end of tubing in hot water, before attaching it to the glassware, as this will help prevent any accidental breakages.
