please show picture of your CO2 splitter

Unread post by saikumar »

There are so many veterans and experts in planted tanks here on forum.
Please can you post a pic of the splitter and valve you use for your CO2 system to use on multiple tanks?
Also your feedback on them.

I want to purchase one, but after your suggestions and seeing pics.

thanks for help

I have two such splitters of different brands but both did not work. The one was connected to CO2 reactor and the other one to diffuser. It was probably due to entire CO2 getting pulled into reactor, but not sure about it.

i guess this will only work when back pressure at both the outlet are almost same. in the above case reactor will have almost zero back pressure as such diffuser will not work.

that's a lucky state!

What do you use at the end of pipes, diffuser or reactors?
Actually we are suppose to use two needle valves after splitter. So I want to know what's the practical trend here.
