Tuckz, like overdrive said, you have a HOB filter which creates surface agitation and gasses off your C02. If you're not willing to change your filter (canisters are expensive) try increasing your water level as close as possible to the return of your HOB.
1 bps also got extra when the lights goes off.... it takes a few more hours before all the CO2 is completely gone...

no point allowing more bps as they will just form small small bubbles and escape into the tank instead..

perhaps I might try to reduce the air stone / atomizer..

Today i check my tanks... seems to be more bubbles around some of the leaves...
