    Good, easy to understand video. I use this for my 14 Liter Nano Tank. A very cheap and effective method to produce CO2. I don`t have a diffusor like your`s, I use an airstone hanging free in the tank. At day, when more CO2 is needed for my plants, I hang it down to the bottom of the tank. In the night, when no CO2 is needed, I lift the airstone to the water surface. So I don`t need to take the tube away every time.

    I want to say first and foremost thank you so much for the video. I’ve watched tons and yours is by far the best! I want to make sure I’ve done this correctly. I’ve had it set up for a couple hours now and I’m seeing bubbles in the bottle with water in it (no bubbles are forming in the diffuser 😕). But only 1 bubble every 21 seconds. I’ve checked for leaks and I don’t have any. Does it need more time to build up co2? Or should I make the yeast water again with more yeast? I halved the amount of each ingredient because the bottle I have is not large enough.

    • @madebykm
      @madebykm  3 года назад

      Yes, it will take more time for the pressure to build up and then the diffuser will work. You don’t have to make the yeast-water again, just add more yeast to the solution, CO2 production will increase. For more information, please see the video description. Thank you.

    One thing I noticed, in my experiences, is hot glue can sometimes fall apart when exposed to humidity for prolonged amounts of time, such as a DIY CO2 system… just saying. It may work for some people, and it is very useful for many things, but when water is involved it can become disintegrated or corroded, possibly causing a leak in the system. But I would just stick with the waterproof silicone to avoid that. 😀

    Hey Kaushik!
    You're doing an amazing job. And I totally agree that this channel deserves many more followers. I've been toying with the idea of DIY Carbon kit for my 77 litre tank. And I'm definitely up for trying your method, which btw is so cool and thoughtful. I just have one question though, can I attach the CO2 outlet to my existing power head filter, which I also use for O2, at the same time? Like there's O2 and CO2 being dispersed into the aquarium by the same power head.

    • @madebykm
      @madebykm  3 года назад +1

      Thank you. I request you to watch my DIY CO2 diffuser video. There I showed how to use a power filter to diffuse CO2 gas in a planted aquarium.

    • @madebykm
      @madebykm  3 года назад +2

      And when you use CO2 (when the lights are ON) you don't have to inject / disperse air into the aquarium. CO2 is not required at night or when the lights are off. At that time you can disperse air through a power filter or use an air pump / air stone.

      First, check if the CO2 system has any leaks. For this, you need to entirely submerge the CO2 system (with the CO2 diffuser attached to the system) in a bucket of water. If you see bubbles coming out of any joints, there is a leak, and you need to fix it accordingly.
      But if you find that there are no leaks in the system, wait a few hours as these CO2 diffusers need some pressure to work. When enough pressure builds up in the bottle, the diffuser will work.

    Thanks for this great info. My ramirezi try to eat the bubbles of CO2 from the difusser, is not harmful to the fish? 👍

      No, it’s not harmful at all. Fish sometimes play with the bubbles, they do the same in my aquarium also.

    Great Diy. Can we use normal gelatin instead of agar agar? I want to do this today and my local shop doesn't have agar agar.

      Actually jelly made using gelatin melts at outside / room temperature (25°C-40°C). Gelatin works well in cold environments (
