All,
Regarding CO2 v. Excel as a carbon source...
Is it correct to state that many of the benefits of CO2 as a carbon source are lost when switching to Excel? Some of the benefits I see being lost:
- Lowered O2 in the water because Excel does not have an O2 for the plant to split and add back into the water.
- Lowered bacteria because the substrate is not as oxygen rich and will not support as much growth / bacteria population.
Anything else?
John
