This reactor provides 100% diffusion of the CO2....
I had to get a snail out of the pump -- snail was wedged against the impellor causing it to stop.

That's very similar to the one I'm using Joe. Sometimes I have to stop and really look long and hard to see the mist as it comes out of mine it's so fine. Very effective.

The power reactors work really good but I like the power heads where you can put a prefilter on them. Sure does save a lot of upset in the tank getting clogs off. :)

80gjoe, have you experienced having that gadget getting flooded with air?
i've learned that gas exchange occurs within a bubble of co2, where the oxygen from the water seeps in, while co2 gas gets aborbed out at the same time. therefore the bubble still exists in the water even when the co2 is completed diffused. so theorically, wouldn't you have a perpetual growth of air inside the reservoir? just a thought...
