In the mixing chamber I had issues with vapor lock.
Try laying your reaction chamber on it's side, so that the bubbles are not forced back downward. Situate it so the bubbles work their way upward. then, it would go into the settling tank near the top. The settling tank would be slightly taller than the inlet, to allow an air bleed. Then, the settling tank would have a downward flow. That would cure the problem you describe without a large pump.

, would it keep the discus water tip top?
Absolutely. But design is key... I think that any purchased system would still require proper system design.

I have learned that there are 2 uses for O3... a small amount can help boost Oxygen levels and redox safely- but a LARGE amount can do much more, but it gets touchy. A large amount will kill everything in the water, which is very good, but if it isn't conditioned properly before re-entering the tank...it is very bad.
