Re: [APD] Aqua Medic Membrane CO2 Reactor

[Vaughn Hopkins <hoppycalif at yahoo_com>]

That type of reactor is supposed to put CO2 in the water by letting  
it flow through a gas permeable membrane.  If you had enough square  
inches of the membrane it should work, but as near as I can see, that  
unit doesn't provide nearly enough square inches.  I haven't figured  
out what the black plastic things do either, just looking at the  
photos.  I think the membranes are the thin white cylinders tucked  
down in the "housing".

I have been experimenting with membranes for use in a drop checker,  
so this unit attracted my attention some time ago.
