CO2 Needed

[fishyz]

Hi I want to cet some plants into my 150g tank once I get it set up. I'm going to get a redfin pickerel for the tank Esox americanus americanus and keep some plants from a local lake. I have a Cascade 1200 canister filter made by Penn-plax. I also want to get about five 15 pound bags of Flourite made by Seachem and a Semi-Automatic CO2 System made by Drs. Foster & Smith. There's a problem with the CO2 system, I need CO2bottels for in but I don't know were to get them and all of the sites I know of that carry plant supllies don't have CO2 bottles. Cane some one please help me I really want to get this tank going.

Get into the phone book and start making calls! For a 150g tank I would go with nothing smaller then a 10lb tank. I use a 20lb tank on my 125g. I would call a industrical gas supplier. Thats where I get mine from. You can also check with any companys that do fire extinguishers.

OK I'll get on it as soon as I can.
