    How big is your tank?
    CO2 no CO2
    Filtration?
    Fertz?
    WC schedule?

    Your prob will be fluctuating CO2 levels.
    If you could maybe get some SAE's 3 would be cool if your current stock levels are not too much.

    If you don't want to get fish that chows the BBA, opt for manual removal and blasting it with Seachem Excel. This is a pain though and you need a lot of patients.

    To increase the CO2 levels and leave your fish gasping for air isn't a solution unless you have a drop checker and if you can monitor your aquarium for 24 hours straight. I say this as you could risk gassing your fish with the amount of CO2 you are injecting.

    Yeah I would be careful of this.
