There is little doubt in my mind that injecting CO2 into a canister filter is
efficient. My concern is the safety, after having my Eheim canister lock up
3 separate times while injecting CO2. When I have commented on this before,
many have said they have not had this experience and injected CO2 this way
for years. The only thing I know for sure is that 2 of the times my filter
locked up I had about $200-$400 worth of fish in the aquarium that were belly
up! I would advise anyone to get a reactor setup like Tom Barr's system, I
believe that Robert has a system available at Aquabotanic as well. JMO,
Don
