EAsy to make, effective DIY internal CO2 reactor

Hi Richard,

You can email those questions to him directly.
Mike Reed, you can do the search, he sells fish foods, is active in the
marine club down in LA.

There are few folks still posting from the 80' he-)

Kinda of funny when I'm called spammer:-)
hehe TFH has some issues, which is why I write for my own web site, not
TFH, which I've written for in the past. They want permanent ownership
of your photo's and do not give much for them. Mike's comments sort of
lead me to do what I do today, things evolve.

I'd be doing quite well in this hobby without the web..... but helping
other folks is something I enjoy. I teach and do public service and do
this hobby.

No reason I should give everything away either. You either for that
matter.

Regards,
Tom Barr

Yeah but it's just not the same without Oleg. Somebody
email him and ask why their water is green. He loves that.

Wellll, they want a perpetual non-exclusive right to redistibute. That means
they can do whatever they want with them, but so can you. I don't see this
as a problem. You're right they don't pay much for them, but Dave is
trying to get them to double the rate for pictures they may use again
wheras pictures of say, an event are really only usefull once. The secret is
to sell them LOTS of pictures :-)

Sure. But the number of people the net puts you in instant touch with
both very locally (oh, you keep fish) and halfway around the world,
makes a huge difference. The pre-internet fish era sucked as far as that
went.

Yeah right. Lemme know how that goes. I'm still waiting for my royalty check
for sci.aquaria. Fish poeple are the nicest but absolute cheapest
people on the planet. I shouldda done marine stuff, not killies. Those
guys have money. :-) But, you gotta do what you love so killies and crypts
it is.

Oleg! Now there's a familiar name. But I think George Booth likes
green water emails even better.

I've induced GW perhaps 50 times in a planted tank.
UV and back to inducing it again. Adding NO3 will not induce it. Adding
PO4 will not induce it, adding lots of traces will not induce it.
Adding all of them except NH4 will not induce it.
Adding NH4 at higher levels and using higher and higher fish loads also
induces it and other algae.

I think I fried Booth's cables(wires) :-)
He's such a nice person, in person and on the net also.
The cable debate was our favorite topic.

Siome fish people are cheap, the reefer's have no issues droppingh
large sums. Plant and FW people are very cheap IME.

Hence the free DIY plan for a well designed effective easy to make CO2
reactor.

I have a very cool new DIY external version coming out in about a month
and some new research on why they build up that gas bubble and how it
influences efficiency of CO2 diffusion. Some interesting O2/CO2
comparisons and data and a good reason to use the venturi on them.

But as you say, many places simply don't carry TFH, the web is better
IMO as well. But I want to produce a book here in the next couple of
years, this will help lead to that.

No, TFH will not be the company I chose to publish it:-)

Marine stuff, funny you mention that
Yes, I am moving through there at a blazing pace addressing their algae
issues and do they have lots and all sorts of $ to waste.
It's hard to argue that reef is not truly cool looking
