Don't over saturate the water in high concentration zones...such as..at the electrode surface in the Nernst Diffusion layer...a micro zone.
ie  Keep the current density down [millimaps per square inch of electrode]

 Keep the water moving so as to not set up macro high concentration zones

Since the human eye can detect a single photon, but doesn't have the resolution to distinguish between photon streams below a threshold diameter, a laser beam can give you a pretty good idea of particle size...it's just not calibrated like a Malvern particle sizer.

If it looks like velvet...the eye is at its limit.
The limits are documented, but I can't figure out how to make a language translation from ocular angle speak that includes distance, into a diameter seen from a given distance.
Simple question, very complicated answers.....
How small is too small to tell one from another when it's right in front of you, being magnified by the optics of curved water filled glass?

What is the best way to make the smallest particles?
