CO2 regulator Question
I have a Reef Fanatic regulator that seems to stop flowing about every 5-6 days. I have to open the valve some to get it going then adjust it back down. I take it that its not normal but is there a fix or do you buy a new regulator.
Thanks for the help

There is a fix, replace the needle valve with the aquarium plants add on box. You will not have that problem any longer.

Which valve do you have to adjust? The needle valve or the one on the regulator itself?
Assuming its the needle valve the above post is a great option.

Yeah, it's the needle valve. The tank is almost full so I know it's that. I looked at the aquarium plants add on box, definitely seems the way to go. Thanks for the tip.
