Just curious what approaches people use. I run mine 24/7.

On the same timer as the lights. My drop checker is still green in the morning so my CO2 is still ~30 ppm. Many run 24/7 without issues but I don't see a reason to if you have an extra outlet on your light timer.

same as lights. I am still expermenting and getting comfortable with it so see no reason right now to run it 24/7.

i used to run it on before the lights turn on but i got a big co2 tank and just leave it on 24/7 now.

I run my co2 with the light cycle. But I couldn't vote - access denied :confused:

Nor do I.:huh: :sad:
24/7 for me. Last time I ran it was 2 months ago. Decided to stop running a CO2 for a heavily-planted tank for awhile. Too expensive and I can't run it when I now own hillstream loaches.:D
