well there a huges difference, youre talking about co2 from the reaction between yeast/sugar vs. pressurized co2 setup.

theres no way youll spend that much. check it out:

- Milwaukee regulator/solenoid/bubble counter/needle valve on ebay $100
- 5lb co2 tank: $60
- DIY reactor: $25
- mechanical timers for light and solenoid: $7 each

there you have it, a full blown pressurized co2 kit for less than $200. a ph controller is NOT REQUIRED. its more of a luxury. i did not run one in my tank as i never saw the need for one

Checked the price, its like $200 cdn + shipping $80.. around $300 total .. :O

cool!

how long did they last?

its hard to say, it will depend on several factors. a 5lb bottle lasts about 5 months on my 55g
