Yeah, Ed, go for it.  Let me know how fast the fish keel over.
But, on the other hand, if you had a crisis-level drop in CO2 (though I can't
imagine what that would be) Calistoga or other sparkling water might be added
to the tank to "spurt" the level of CO2 short-term.  It would probably add
some other dissolved solids as well, though, but not sugar, aspertame, or
artificial black-water
