First time co2 setup- Water in CO2 tubing

Hi, I have set up my CO2 system for the first time yesterday following the FZone regulator tutorial on YouTube. Everything seemed to go smoothly during setup.

Came back this morning, turned it on, and noticed:

  • Bubble counter is about half empty
  • Water inside the CO2 tubing
  • Diffuser isn't producing any bubbles

Bubble counter was set to around 1/2 bubble per second.

Is this normal for a first-time setup or did I do something wrong? Any idea what caused it and how to fix it?

Looking for aquarium plant clippings / local fish store recommendations

Hello everyone,

I recently started a small 10-gallon planted aquarium and I’m trying to fill it out with more stem plants, moss, shrimp-friendly plants, etc.

If any fellow aquarium hobbyists have extra trimmings/clippings from their tanks that they’d be willing to share or sell, I’d really appreciate it. I’m totally fine paying as well. I have tried to get some from fb marketplace but no luck

Also, if anyone knows of any good local aquarium stores with quality plants and reasonable prices, preferably smaller local shops instead of big chain stores like PetSmart or Petco I'd love some recommendations.

(Shrimpie Pic from my tank for attention)

Thanks!

I'm in Syracuse, NY area as the title said I'm looking for fire red shrimp, pygmy corydoras & some plants. Had some bad experience with shipping live fish so local/nearby pickup is preferred if not I'm open to consider shipping

TIA
