I'm still in the initial stages of planning my first planted tank. This thought occured to me while reading how some people run their CO2 into their canister intake.
I plan on running 2-3 Maxi-jet 600's in my 135 planted tank.
I also plan on using a pressurized CO2 system.
How effective would it be for CO2 diffusion if I ran my CO2 line into the intake side of one of these powerheads? No chance of "air-lock" since the unit is submerged, and I think the impeller should chop the bubbles fine enough to insure adequate dissolution of the CO2 in the tankwater.
Anyone tried this ?? Any comments ??
All input (positive or negative) appreciated.
Thanks, Jim
