Co2 scrubber option for biocube 32?

[Stv]

I can’t seem to find a good option to adapt a co2 scrubber to the stock biocube 32 V-2 skimmer? I have a lot of coral and struggle with my ph. 7.8 and 9-10 KH so I can’t buffer the tank. Co2 scrubber seems the only option but I can’t find any info or diy on a set up. Is there a set up for sale or is adding a line to fresh air from the scrubber the only option. HELP!!! . Thanks. I’ve tried opening windows etc. never changes. Want to add a scrubber but can’t find any option to buy that will work with my current set up. Where’s my McGyvers???

Change locks on all the doors and lock all humans expelling CO2 from their breathes from the premises except for you

Does your skimmer have a 1/4" port to draw air into? If so, you can draw outside air by running 1/4" tubing outside. That's what I've done. My pH tops out at 8.3

Here is a pic of my nano sump.
The orange line was attatched to a plastic bottle and hung from the side. I filled it with co2 media and it kept my tank above a ph of 8.
I thought I had a pic of it but I mist have deleted it. The media lasted a week before it turned all purple.
It worked well on the 25.

I’m going to look into it and if not figure out a way to do it. I removed my lid and added an AI Prime light hoping to help with air intake but it made no difference other than the coral obviously love the upgrade.

Sure. Its a plastic tea bottle.
I drilled holes in the bottom. Then I put a black sponge in and filled it with the scrubber media.
I drilled a hole in the top put another black sponge on top.
In the hole I put a 90° plastic fitting and attatched the air line to the scrubber to it. Thats it.
The media turns color when exhausted. Just make sure the media stays out of the water.
Its the same principle that all co2 scrubber are based on.
