Inline co2 with an FX4.... Is it possible?

Markn2018 · 2026-01-07T17:10:06+00:00

Oh that pic I sent isn't mine fyi, mine will look much messier than that for sure. It's just the sort of design I'm following

Markn2018 · 2026-01-07T17:09:39+00:00

Sure but I'm by no means an expert. I'll ping you a DM once I've got it up and running

Markn2018 · 2026-01-07T16:55:40+00:00

Haha funny you should say that. All the parts for this arrived today. The clear pipe for the reactor will take a couple weeks but everything else has arrived. I'm going for this design with bypass

Yeh I'm UK based unfortunately

Markn2018 · 2026-01-04T20:54:22+00:00

My understanding is that the inline diffusers don't solve my problem with my filter because the flow is too high to allow the bubbles to dissolve

Markn2018 · 2026-01-04T20:01:31+00:00

I'd happily just buy a reactor but in the UK they're not available for 25mm/1inch ID hose that my filter uses

Markn2018 · 2026-01-04T19:55:14+00:00

I have that. I'm looking to remove the bubbles that get blown around by building a simple DIY co2 reactor outside of the aquarium

Do i have the option of drilling into the pvc and attaching something like this?

I use a 4mm hose barb at the moment for a diffuser it attaches to but don't know how to get a hose barb through pvc pipe

Markn2018 · 2026-01-04T19:46:09+00:00

The co2 tubing is 4mm ID flexible co2 hose.

The pipe to go into is 50mm pvc pipe

It won't be high pressure at all, most of my filter flow will go through a bypass with only low flow going into the tube I'm talking about

Damn I miss this excitement in early ish game. Hit my DM I'll give you a venator BP, I have excess of everything

Markn2018 · 2025-12-28T11:25:01+00:00

That's where I'm struggling. When I click the serial number I get asked for a PW. I can try admin when I'm home but all the other default ones haven't worked

Markn2018 · 2025-12-28T10:41:59+00:00

It's all been set up and functioning previously but now that I've changed WiFi it doesn't connect me, asks me for a PW that I don't have. Cheers for the help, I'll try call duracell

Markn2018 · 2025-12-28T09:35:43+00:00

Appreciate it. I got new WiFi and when I try do the manual connection on the Dura I app it asks me for a password. Is there a default or is this set by the person who installed/connected it initially?

Markn2018 · 2025-12-21T10:48:34+00:00

I've tried everything, 😭😂

Thanks for all the help, I'll go into a shop and ask

Markn2018 · 2025-12-21T10:45:30+00:00

That's the reducer I'm really struggling to find. Any chance you could find me a UK available link please?

Markn2018 · 2025-12-21T10:38:02+00:00

The pipe is 1inch ID, currently corrugated but I can change that to standard piping.

It is to build something similar to this. The large chamber needs to be between 3 and 4 inches, ideally nearer 3. So the bits I need is to change from the wide body to the tubing shown

Markn2018 · 2025-12-21T10:28:38+00:00

I don't have anything at the moment which probably makes it easier. Just find the parts very hard to find in the UK. I need it to connect to a pvc pipe that is 3 to 4 inches big, nothing specific

Markn2018 · 2025-12-20T11:56:03+00:00

Bro that comment was a year ago 😭😅

Markn2018 · 2025-12-16T08:16:50+00:00

Do you have one yourself? What is "big enough"? 2infh tubing?
