Hello all!
So I just set up co2 on my 40 breeder for the first time. What should I watch out for now? I've been keeping an eye on the fish and none are showing signs of gassing so far.
My dkh is 4 and my pH yesterday at the peak dropped to 6.6-6.8 - down from 7.4 (according to API test kit, ordered a digital meter that should be here tomorrow).
I have the co2 kick on two hours before lights on and off one hour before lights off. The air pump with two stones kicks on when the light turns off and kicks off when co2 comes on.
Should the drop checker be fully green before the lights turn on?
