CO2 Reactor 1000 Tips and Tricks

Always use a GFI when installing your internal pump system.

Always create a drip-loop with the power cord to prevent water from reaching electrical outlets.

Use a pH Controller or pH Computer to switch an M-Ventil Solenoid, which will regulate the injection of CO2 to your aquarium based on the pH value of the system water. This eliminates harmful pH swings and offers an essential element of stability to your live-plant aquarium. Typically you will set your pH value between 7.0 - 7.4 for freshwater live-plant aquaria.

Use the needle valve on the CO2 Regulator and a Bubble Counter to set your initial CO2 bubble count and adjust thereafter.

Includes a handy "false gas" valve to temporarily allow air to escape during filling.

The sturdy mounting plate can span up to a 1.5" tank trim width.

Use an Oceanlight T5 lighting system in conjunction with your CO2 Reactor M and CO2 Accessories for the ultimate live-plant tank.

Use Volcanit substrate for outstanding plant growth and fish presentation.

Use Terralit for superior on-demand fertilization within the substrate.

The Aqua Medic CO2 Reactor 1000 is ideal for large fish tanks and aquariums where large amounts of CO2 need to be supplied to maintain healthy aquatic plants.
