🌱 CO₂ for planted aquariums : performance and simplicity
Controlled CO₂ (carbon dioxide) injection is one of the most effective ways to promote aquatic plant growth, improve photosynthesis, and limit algae blooms. EHEIM CO₂ systems combine all the essential elements for a stable and consistent distribution of the gas in the water, suitable for aquariums up to 200 L, 400 L or 600 L depending on the model chosen.
🔧 Complete or modular kits for greater flexibility
The range is offered in several configurations, allowing you to adapt the system to your needs and budget :
- CO₂ Set 400 without solenoid valve, without cylinder : basic kit with regulator, pressure gauge and diffuser for aquariums up to ~400 L : perfect for those who wish to use their own bottle or solenoid valve elsewhere.
- CO₂ Set 400 with solenoid valve : complete ready-to-use kit including solenoid valve, regulator, pressure gauge, tubing and diffuser, ideal for automating injection according to lighting or the photosynthesis cycle.
- CO₂ Set 600 without solenoid valve, without cylinder : more powerful version for aquariums up to ~600 L, with regulator and basic accessories.
- CO₂ Set 600 with solenoid valve : complete configuration integrating the solenoid valve, ready to control the injection via a programmer or aquarium controller.
This modularity allows everyone to choose the level of automation and personalization that suits their installation.
📊 Optimal regulation and diffusion
Each set includes a precise pressure regulator, ensuring a stable release of CO₂, and an efficient diffuser that helps dissolve the gas evenly in the water. This maintains a stable CO₂ concentration, essential for vigorous plant growth and healthy water.
🍃 Aquaponics and planted systems
Although these sets are designed for planted aquariums, they can also be used in aquaponic systems with a dedicated plant growing area, where controlled CO₂ injection can support plant growth.
