These are useful
CO2 calculators that can help you balance your
CO2/pH
levels. To use this method: Simply measure the pH and KH levels in your tank, enter the numbers in the green frames inside the "method #1" block and you'll get your CO2 level in ppm units.
Method #2Calculate CO2 concentration in your aquarium according to two mesurments of pH - before a shake and after.To use this method: Fill a small, closable container with water from your tank. Measure the pH level and enter it in the upper green frame. Next, close the container and give it a good shake. Measure the pH level then enter it in the lower green frame. You'll get your CO2 level in ppm units.
Use this tool to figure the target pH for your controller that will get you the desired CO2 level. To use this method: Choose the level of CO2 that is most suitable for your plants (don't forget your fish), and enter it in to upper green frame. Next, you need to measure your KH level and apply it to the lower green frame. You'll will get the pH level you wanted (this is what you should set your pH-controller to if you want to get the entered CO2 level). Note: The methods showing here could be very inaccurate - the result is very sensitive to it's input, so make sure you measured an accurate pH and KH levels. It is always recommended to repeat the measurements a few times before considering any action. |
