well i can't find the thread i got it from, but basically you take emergency co2 for paintball, then buy the reducers, t-valve and barb from your hardware store, it works really well. they are suppose to last almost a month on a single cartridge (same you buy for pellet guns).
Hi , I posted on another thread but I thought id post it here also :
I have 3 bottles (1 2L, one hagen system bottle, and one smaller about a little less than 1L bottle) hooked up to my hagen ladder using 2 T connectors and I am only getting 3 bps. I understand that you guys get a whole bunch of bubbles, and I even have 3 of them set up so Im guessing I have a leak? The bubbles are all getting dissolved into the water probably about +90% because the bubbles get very very tiny at the top of the ladder. I havent really started my planted tank journey yet I just have fanwort from petsmart just to work out any kinks in my system (I havent had money lately either to buy my ferts and everything ) so I would like to get this fixed. Thanks!
