In this video I have added two Anubias Nana plants, two pieces of driftwood, and diy co2 injection using a glass diffuser. Please comment and enjoy!!!

How does baking soda and gelatin affect the output of CO2 in a yeast based aquarium DiY CO2 generator?

Many recipes call for C02 and Gelatin for their recipe. I fully understand how the yeast and sugar work to produce CO2 so its not necessary to explain that. But specifically these questions:

1. How does baking soda affect the output of CO2 in a DiY CO2 generator?

2. How does gelatin affect the output of CO2 in a DiY CO2 generator?

A typical recipie:
4 cups water
1 cup sugar
2 packages of Gelatin
¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp yeast
1 cup warm water

A basic recipe consist of just yeast, water and sugar which is what i have been using.

Can someone recommend?

Saltwater Tank Clowns


My 28 gallon bow front aquarium. 2 black and white percula clowns, damsel, blue leg hermit crabs, 3 anemoes. 40lbs of live sand, etc.

Should I use aquarium salt in my red-eared slider tank?

I have a RES in a 55-gallon aquarium. I do a 20% partial water change every week while cleaning the gravel. Is it OK to add aquarium salt? I do have sword tails and cat corys in there and I know they benefit from the salt, when they are not being eaten. Any tips on the salt? I’ve got the lighting issues covered, thanks!

How to treat snail infested aquarium?

All of my fishes are gone now. I did not buy anything yet. I want to get rid of the small snails in my aquarium. They are kinda numerous right now.

Please give me advices on how will I treat my aquarium.

Can Hydrogen Peroxide help?? I am thinking of soaking the ornaments/substrates with it, then rinse it.

I tried looking for snail eaters(fish, snail etc.). But I did not find any.

Please give me some other solutions. (I also request informative answers IF possible)

Thank you very much
