You know...my CO2 consumption is not that high. I only have a 10lb tank and it lasts me for 6 months or a year. My current reactor is running at pH 6.4. If I attempt to push more CO2 in than that, the media just turns to mush.
If I attempt to push more water through the existing reactor (more than 70ml/min), the output of the reactor starts to go down and the effluent pH gets really low. (You start flushing CO2 right through the system before it has had adequate time to react to the media)

It is hard enough to keep sponges...
It is difficult enough to keep sponges alive long term...I don't need this kind of help from "Freckles". His motivation for this behaviour seems to be that this is where he likes to sleep and he's decided that this sponge is in his way. If I return it to it's regular spot, it is removed within about 1 minute.
This also gives everyone a good idea of just how large the vlamingi is getting. I just checked the records and he came to the tank almost exactly 9 months ago and was about 1" long at that time. Yikes!   Finally, an entertaining video of his sponge clearing skill...with guest appearance by almost every other fish right at the end of the video.  Now that you've watched the video once, watch it again and notice the brief territorial squabble between two cleaner shrimp on the right...
