The JBL ProAqua Test CO2 Direct is designed for quick and accurate determination of the carbon dioxide content in aquarium water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most important plant nutrient. Aquarium water usually has values between 2 and 4 mg/l if no carbon dioxide is added. However, a CO2-concentration between 15 and 30 mg/l is recommended, with 20 - 25 mg/l having proven to be optimum levels.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most important plant nutrient. Aquarium water usually has values between 2 and 4 mg/l if no carbon dioxide is added. However, a CO2 concentration between 15 and 30 mg/l is recommended, with 20 - 25 mg/l having proven to be optimum levels. This level is not harmful to fish whilst at the same time promoting luxuriant plant growth. Therefore, gradually adjust your CO2 fertilisation unit until this level is attained. The amount of CO2 which needs to be added to your CO2 fertilisation unit to achieve this value depends on various factors. These factors include water agitation and the intensity of illumination (more light causes plants to grow faster, thereby increasing the required CO2 ) in addition to direct consumption by plants. Thus the correct dose must be determined individually for each aquarium.
Please note: When fertilising with so-called liquid carbon, fertiliser monitoring withJBL ProAqua Test CO2 Direct is not possible because these fertilisers do not contain CO2 but other carbon compounds.
