Mike-B,

Thanks so much for taking the time to explain this in such detail. A great job!

All,

So, I have a 180 gal with a 500gph pump running an AM1000 with venturi mod with outlet of c02 reactor near intake of main tank pump......

I use an 1800 gph pump for the main pump in my sump.

I have the main pump also split to dual outlets back to tank. Assuming I setup similar to you with the mazzei just PRIOR to the T splitter....

Questions:

1. What size mazzei do you suggest for my 180 gal tank? Please PM with links thanks

2. Is my 1800 gph sufficient to run it as I want? Or do I need a even bigger pump? Especially in light of mrkookm's comments.

3. Can I continue to run my current reactor setup, or is the idea to REPLACE the reactor with the mazzei?

I thought that keeping the two systems would cause c02 enriched water through the mazzei and that it would be better combined.

Tom, is this what you meant by



I assume that this would entail splitting the c02 input to run both ways, correct?

Is this the better option? Or should I run both but separate somehow? You refererred earlier to two independent systems.

Thanks again for your help.
