The glass Beetle Diffuser is a pollen style CO2 diffuser that connects to CO2 injection systems to easily disperse CO2 gas into the planted aquarium. The large surface area of the disc allows for the diffusion of large volumes of CO2 gas, making the Beetle Diffuser an excellent choice for mid-sized aquaria or higher-growth aquaria. Compatible with 6 mm (1/4") - Standard Airline Tubing. Suction cups included. . FAQs Does disc diameter affect capacity? What’s the right disc size for my set up? A larger disc gives a greater surface area through which CO2 can be diffused, which can become important when trying to inject large volumes of CO2. Ideally, larger discs are used in larger or more heavily planted aquariums. . Directions Rinse glassware with warm water. Attach suction cup and desired tubing (Compatible with 6 mm (1/4") - Standard Airline Tubing) to the diffuser. To attach tubing to glassware, wet the inside of the tubing with water at the attachment point and carefully slide tubing over glass. The use of other lubricants is not advisable as these usually make the tubing slide off of the glassware too easily. To avoid breakage when removing tubing, do not pull tubing off of glassware. Instead, cut tubing carefully along the attachment length to release the glassware. Mount your diffuser using the suction cup(s). It should be positioned low in the aquarium. When removing or repositioning the diffuser, pull by the suction cup(s) rather than the glass to avoid breakage. Install check valve (not included) inline with tubing outside of the aquarium Once securely mounted, turn on CO2. Observe bubble count and adjust CO2 to desired flow rate. Some of Seachem’s diffusers have a bubble counting feature. Otherwise a separate Seachem glass Bubble Counter is available.
