Default Re: DIY CO2 made easy

yep, add some juice concentrate instead of jello, when the Co2 is done, bottoms up! LOL

Aquarist's vino.

Yes but having sustained levels of Co2 and consistency are harder to achieve on large tanks, 4 bottles keeps me going fine for about 20-25 days, same size bottle for accumulator with about 3" of water in it to makes the muck sink and easier to clean out.

The brown sugar does help, it gives it a nice kick for about 10-14 days straight. 1tblspn per bottle. I think its a richer sugar and more of it being its not just white sugar, better chemical make-up I think.
