Directions:
Connect 3/8"
tubing to your protein skimmer's air intake and the output side of the scrubber
. It is usually easiest to remove your skimmer's silencer and directly attach
the CO2 Scrubber tubing to your pumps venturi.
Remove the
refillable cartridge and add 1 to 2 Tbsp of RODI water to the bottom of the
reactor body making sure that it does not touch the CO2 media. Completely fill
the refillable cartridge insert with your preferred CO2 absorbing media and
place back into the canister housing.
Monitor your
tank's pH hourly for the first couple days .When your pH starts to drop in
value (usually 2-4 weeks depending on tank size and CO2 concentration) you will
need to replace the media. Our CO2 absorbing media will have a color changing
indicator to let you visually see when it turns purple its depleted and needs
to be changed.
