Ive had an attempt to make my own reactor..i have glued a small plastic bottle on the end of my filter spraybar(outlet).Co2 goes into the bottom of the bottle creating a small amount of trapped co2 at the top of the bottle.after 2 or 3 bubbles of co2 enter,it is forced out of the spraybar..Ive directed the spraybar downwards hold the co2 bubble in the water....Seems to work pretty good but how efficient do you think it is?Are ALL of the bubbles suppose to desolve?as i still get allot reaching the surface.....Here is my little video...VIDEO IS HERE ..Ignore the air curtain in the background...any comments welcome
 
looks a bit hectic, cant really see whats going on. co2 bubbles should disappear before they reach the surface otherwise its not actually doing anything at all.
