Yes, and I think it is important to realize that too much CO2 can stress or
even kill your fish, no matter how much O2 is present in the water. Some of
the colorfull fish-pictures are made when the fish is intoxicated almost to
death by CO2. I donīt know why such a situation makes them more colorfull ?
