Re: CO2 injection
Here's a link to C02 set up and it does refer to injecting into a canister filter in the "Reactor" section. But I've always heard it's a great way to ruin a good filter. This guy say's he's never had an air lock in an Eheim Classic, but I've heard of a lot more people that have. Fluvals are bad about air locking that way too, and it makes them rattle.

Re: CO2 injection
To save your camister any possible damage, just build a cheap DIY reactor inline with your return hose.

Re: CO2 injection
Yes i have read alot of articles...are you guys suggesting something like Rex's DIY reactor?

Shudders*...building things...
Ok if i build this reactor, it goes on the output tubing of my canister filter (left tube in the picture)...how do i cut the tubing without letting water leak everywhere?
Does anyone on this forum have this reactor? its a pretty daunting task to DIY especially if you never do.

Re: CO2 injection
Well, to make things easier, i could probably inject it straight into the tank with some sort of reactor in the tank. Rather than putting it inline with the canister. I just need to cover it up with plants
