What is requirement for CO3 in water?

[Jessesun]

When you have ozone for disinfection in aquarium, what is the CO3 you requirement? and do you know how to control it? please share some experience in using ozone for aquaculture

You want it or don't want it?
If you don't want it just add a CO2 scrubber in front of the ozone generator.

This will probably get a better answer in the chemistry forum.

This looks like it may be a typo?
Are you asking about Ozone o3
Or are you actually asking about c03 a carbonate ion?

From What I can make out is that co3 is a carbonate compound, I think this would be totally separate from the use of ozone. If you meant ozone which is o3 then you want to measure o.r.p. ( Oxidation reduction potential)

CO3 in this context is the equivalent to the unstable and highly oxidizing O3 (ozone) and not the stable carbonate compound.
When C is involved you have to look at the structure and what is attached where, not just at the numericals.

You all get me wrong. What I want to say that you often have ozone generator for your aquarium, do you know how much ozone per hour is need, contact time? as in the market, nearly all ozone machine facotry exaggerate the ozone production, like 3g/hr, acctually it has 30%, 1g/hr. if you do not know it, how can you make sure the ozone disinfect for your aquarium?

What I want to know you often have ozone generator for your aquarium, do you know how long the ozone machine need to work each time? this is related to 2 questions, one is concentration of ozone, CO3, the other is contact time.

Well, your question was about CO3, not O3 (ozone).

CO3 is concentration of ozone, and you can say that it is one question

CO3 may stand for a number of things, concentration of ozone is none of them.

*I think there might be a little language gap.

I believe they’re asking how to calculate size, settings, and daily run time for an ozone generator.

Yes, That is what I want to say, but few users know how to choose ozone machine and have it work for their aquairium.
