I have a 13 year old deep sand bed in a 75g, and one of the reasons I use GFO is to lower the risk of H2S poisoning when my bluespot jawfish and other critters stir up the sand bed. I've had tank crashes, and sometimes I was never able to determine the cause.
Now, I am setting up an ozone system for the first time and I am fascinated by the possibility that, at least in theory, ozone can be used to oxidize H2S into sulfate.
Suppose a deep H2S pocket is disturbed. If I'm running the recommended level of ozone, would that have any impact on neutralizing the H2S? Or, would it not have any effect because the ozone is first neutralized by the carbon in the skimmer/reactor effluent?
