Re: [GSAS-Member] Need a Co2 reactor / diffuser

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

I'm rather a fan of the Hagen/Nutrafin "natural system" ladder-like 
diffusers, because they're darned simple.  You can buy just the so-called 
"bubble-counter", by itself, which is a reactor that works in the tank 
without any external pumps or powerheads.  For instance:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Nutrafin-Plant-Gro-CO2-System-Bubble-Counter_W0QQitemZ370276874299QQcmdZViewItem?rvr_id=&itemid=370276874299

Its achilles heel is snails getting into the ladder, but otherwise is 
cheap and stable.
