I got a hydor co2 set up, with a paintball cylinder for my 15g tank and have been running it for about 2-3 weeks now.
I feel like every day, the flow rate is different, regardless of whether I've touched it or not. I just walked in to it blasting the tank with co2. Yesterday I was at about 1 bubble every 3 seconds. right now it's about 2 per second. I did not touch the regulator this week.
I'm curious what causes the change in rate, and how to truly control it. will a needle valve solve this? if so, can anyone reccomend a good one?
thanks.
