View Full Version : DIY C02 & hooking it up to a internal filter

Hi,

I've been looking at some diagrams of DIY C02 generators and about the
different methods used to get the C02 in the water.
I have a small internal filter laying around and was wondering if you
could hook up the C02 outlet from the bottles on to the oxygen inlet
of the small internal filter or would that "suck" to much on the
C02 bottles and cause havoc?
If so, could this be solved hooking up a T shaped piece on the oxygen
inlet and have 1 tube for oxygen and 1 for the CO2?
Or might the mixing with the oxygen before it's sprayed out again
already be a bad idea? One could then put the tube in the water instead
of in the air so that contains water instead of C02.

Any ideas?

You could hook up the CO2 line to run into your HOT filter.. I've heard that
works well...
