Greetings all,
I recently watched a YouTube video that showed a homemade CO2 "pump" in a small (5gal) aquarium. Apparently he used a soda bottle, yeast, sugar, and water, drilled a hole in the lid and inserted tubing, and on the other end that goes in the aquarium he put a small airstone. The reaction of yeast/sugar/water releases CO2 which is then "pumped" through the tubing and into the aquarium. Has anyone ever tried this? What would be the tank size limitation on such a primitive contraption??? I left him a comment on the video but it was a few years old and no reply. Anyone had experience with this??
Thanks!
