How to use the product
Watch the video above for more details on installing the System Nano.
- Mount the regulator on the CO2 cylinder and check that the regulator is closed
- Fill the diffuser chamber with water
- Place the cartridge in the device and mount the hose on the regulator and the diffuser
- Mount the diffuser using the suction cups inside the aquarium near the bottom so that the hose follows a corner at the back of the tank.
- Slowly open the regulator and count the number of bubbles in the diffuser chamber.
- Wait 2 minutes, adjust and repeat until the number of bubbles is approximately as shown in the chart.
The table opposite shows the recommended dosage (bubbles per minute) in different aquarium sizes.
A 95 g System Nano cylinder contains approximately 50,000 ml of CO2.
CO2 is the most important nutrient for aquarium plants.
The natural level of CO2 in an aquarium is 0-0.5 mg/L of water.
Even a limited supply of CO2 can make a huge difference to plant growth and health.
If the aquarium contains slow-growing plants of the Easy category, an addition increases the CO2 level to approx. 3 mg/L will provide good growing conditions for plants.
For Medium category plants the CO2 requirement is around 10 mg/L and for Advanced plants the requirement is around 25 mg/L.
*) If you have a large aquarium containing plants of the Medium or Advanced categories, the nano cartridge will have too short a lifespan.
In these cases, we recommend a 2 kg CO2 bottle for example.
