I have pix of the finished product and the materials needed, but none in the process... Sorry. It works and I thought Id share anyway.
Here is what you need:
Fleischmann's dry active yeast, a 2ltr soda bottles(I used 3), bubble wand(I used 2), t-valve, airline tubing, fraction measurer(for the yeast), clay, measuring cup, bowl, fork, a pot, jello and sugar.
So this is what I did.
I poured my Jello (4oz) into a bowl. Then I boiled 1 cup of water. After the powedered jello was in the bowl, I added sugar to completly cover the jello mix. Then I poured the piping hot water over the sugar and jello. Then I mixed for 5 minutes. Then I poured that into a measuring cup(had a mini funnel on it) and then poured it into the soda bottle. Then it went into the freezer for about 8-10 minutes, or until I finished the next batch. Then I repeated this an additional 2 times, for the other two bottles. After I made the second batch, the first bottle sitting in the freezer was taken out and put into the fridge. Then I made another batch, and placed the second bottle in the fridge, and the third bottle went into the freezer for 10 minutes. Then I put the last bottle into the fridge, and left all three in there for 4.5 hours. I came home later and poured luke warm water over the jello sitting inside the soda bottle very slowly. I did that. Then I drilled holes in the 3 bottle caps, making it a tight fit for the tubing. I put the tube about 1.5 inches in the cap, then covering the inside and outside of the bottle cap with clay, making it air-tight. (You could use silicone, but I used clay.) Then I connected the air tubing of bottle A and bottle B with a "T" valve. I added 3/4 of a tsp of yeast in bottle A, and 1/2 a tsp in bottle B, because they had the most jello in the bottle. Bottle C had 3/8 of a tsp(Thats in the middle of 1/4 and 1/2 just incase anyone didnt know,)of yeast. I placed a 1" airstone on bottle C's airline, and hid it next to my Eheim Filter intake. Bottle's A and B have theirs near a piece of DW. The I just waited for the bubbles to appear. And they did!
Here are some more pix.

I hope you guys enjoy it. Ask any questions if you need to. Thanks!

Nice
The jello is so you dont have to keep refilling the sugar and yeast 6 times monthly. The jellow plus all the extra sugar gives the yeast more time to eat the sugar, turning into co2.
