What is the Dennerle Carbo Bio Start 60/80 CO2 Kit?
The Dennerle Carbo Bio Start 60/80 CO2 Kit is an easy-to-use and quick-to-install bio-CO2 system designed for use in freshwater aquariums. It uses 100% renewable CO2 Constant Gel, delivered in replaceable cartridges, to deliver a steady stream of CO2 into your aquarium over a period of at least 40 days.
This bio-CO2 system is available in two models, the Carbo Bio Start 60 and the Carbo Bio Start 80. The former is suitable for aquariums up to 60L, while the latter is suitable for aquariums up to 80L. Both systems come with everything you’ll need to set up a rudimentary CO2 system, including a pressure-resistant CO2 hose and a CO2 Mini Diffuser.
What’s Included:
- Mini CO2 Diffuser
- CO2 Hose
- CO2 Constant Gel
- Bio Activator
How much CO2 does this bio-CO2 system produce?
The Dennerle Carbo Bio Start 60/80 CO2 Kit produces enough CO2 to supply a 60L or 80L aquarium for at least 40 days. The CO2 Constant Gel that forms the backbone of this system steadily releases CO2 into your aquarium, rather than in an irregular stream like alternative bio-CO2 systems that work with white sugar. This makes it a much more suitable bio-CO2 system for planted aquariums.
Why is CO2 so important for aquatic plants?
Plants consist of almost 50% carbon. CO2 is therefore their most important nutrient. It serves as the basic building block for photosynthesis. From CO2, water and light, they produce their most important building material and energy source: sugar.
Without the addition of CO2, the levels present in home aquariums is always too low. Plants therefore only grow slowly or, in a lot of cases, not at all. This also results in little oxygen production for fish and shrimp, but above all the risk of algae problems increases significantly. Well-growing aquatic plants are the best prevention against algae!
Only a regular addition of CO2 creates the natural basis for healthy, strong plant growth, lush green leaves and bright colours. The plants produce more oxygen for the fish, ensure better water quality and actively prevent algae.
