Yes it will, but will we use it 24 x 7 ? dont think the fish would enjoy 24/7 rain. I would put it on a timer along with my lighting and then let Co2 kick in when the rain stops!

Hi,

A possible solution could be to use a Tee and turn on an additional co2 diffuser into the tank at that time to make up for the loss. Also one could do a simulation in lighting, where by you do sunrise, peak lighting and sunset times, i would turn the rain on in the peak lighting period and the additional Co2 into the Tee via a solenoid.

Nirav.
