alternate DIY CO2 (Re: Aquatic Plants Digest V4 #627)



I'm sure some one else has thought of this and its been rejected, but is there any

work?  It seems that it might be too fast a reaction to be regulated, but wouldn't that
be true of the other carbonate-acid reaction mentioned?

University and high school labs have done this with acid and calcium
carbonate for some time.
