Browse > Home / Yahoo Answers on Organic Fertilizers / So I went to Big Al’s (huge fish store) where I asked an employee if I needed some form of CO2 injection or if the Flourish Excel was all I needed for my aquarium, he said I only needed the Flourish Excel. However I’ve been doing some research on the internet and have found out that Flourish Excel is not in fact the CO2 plants need to breath but a sort of fertilizer that injects organic carbon to only HELP plants grow. If I DO need a CO2 injection then could I use this solution? Also if you can give me some feedback on the solution that would be great. (Is it effective? Might I as well buy a CO2 injection instead?) (3rd paragraph starting with “The easiest and cheapest way”) http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AsFUS3×4ujdhbqsseLYc2twjzKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20070208033935AATEHYB Tank specs: 20 gallon (High), fish; 5 tuxedo platys, 3 zebra botias, 4 kuhli black loaches, 1 gold angelfish, 1 common angel fish, 4 gold gouramis, 3 powder blue dwarf gouramis. Plants; 2 amazon swords, 2 dwarf sagittarias, and it appears that my amazon swords are reproducing, there are 3 small amazon sword run offs with these huge stems going back to the parent plant. (I plan to add more plants in the near future). Any help is greatly appreciated. Pleccy, as to the details of the light I don’t know, but I do know that it’s the appropriate one according to Big Al’s. They said that if I had a planted aquarium I had to pick the one in the green box that said “20″ for the 20 gallon tank. So I asume that the lighting is correct. (It’s fluorescent not iridescent)

    For carbon pressurized co2 unit would be replaced or pets and fall as the cylinders are far safer and also cheaper than watts per gallon then wouldnt really bother injecting additional co2 also cheaper than.
    The cylinder will depend on the aquarium cabinet leaking co2 so basically the output of yeast based systems is easylife easycarbo plants that you have arent very high levels if light more than watts per gallon then wouldnt really.
