it does look nice!
i did try some a while ago, tied some to a log with cotton threat (did not know about the hairnet idea!) and left some to float.
within a few days the fish had eaten the lot!!
so can only use with certain fish!

yeah it was very nice. It grew to a nice size then i stopped using the Co2 and it just went brown and died off.
If it wasnt so expensive i would have real Co2 too but to spend that much on a 8 liter tank isnt worth it. if it is the dennerle nano you are getting they also do a nice nano glassware set and new nano Co2 canisters....pricey mind.
lol Ive seen them, i like the dennerle tanks better than any others ive looked at, def getting the dennerle tank, just can't make my mind up about which way to go with Co2. I don't want a yeast set up even though miles cheaper but almost £100 for Co2 in a tiny tank seems loads
I'm currently using a yeast setup, (my beer brew kit is attached to a power-head dispersing co2 from the fermenting beer)
I used a Fluidised bed filter and converted it into a co2 chamber.
Just half fill it with water add yeast and sugar, i removed the cap at the top took out the sand and re-sealed it after adding the ingredients then added a power-head to spread the co2.
