I know how to do Co2 but I got a new tank setup and a new filter. I want to diffuse the Co2 through my filter, but the filter doesn't reach the waterline. Does it have to reach the waterline for the Co2 to get into the tank? I know there are other ways of diffusing it, but I'm just wondering if I can still add Co2 even though the filter doesn't reach the waterline.
 
I am sure you can do it, but I think you would be losing more CO2 than you would gain because of the agitation of the surface of the water. Can you keep the water level of your tank high enough to at least minimize the splashing?
 
I have an aquaclear filter theres not much splashing its a steady stream but I would have to top off the water to almost reach the lights, and even a small bump, water changes, new plants, would make it overflow. :rolleyes:
