CO2 System in a reef tank?
I bought a used 90g system this weekend and it comes with a Co2 System. Ive never heard of one being used on a reef system only in freshwater systems to help the growth of plants. Will this be something i wana hook up or try and sell it for some $$$.
Thanks |

you use it for cal reactors keeps ph,cal and alk balanced, should have a tower with gravel looking substance inside the co2 hooks up to this, look up that moddle for settings,
i tun my k1000 at 20 bubbles to 40 drips of effulenton a med stocked 1600ltr tank some use more some use less it all depends on the cal uptake in the system,
