Try looking for Home Brew stores, or maybe even some larger liquor stores. They might refill tanks for peoples home kegerators. Those should have food grade, so no worries about killing your shrimp.

mmm. good tip.
 
I get mine from a place that does co2 for beverage/restaurant industry. $8 for a 20# tank.
 
I get my refills at Sports Authority. Not sure if any sporting stores do it in your area though.
 
Thanks for the tips guys!!!

Sadly im in Hong Kong, so absolutely no specialty brew shops or sports stores that will refill Co2, so i guess i'll be trying out one of the fire equipment stores or if im really lucky, one of the hobby gun stores. If they have Co2 refilling services...
 
If you can find a construction site or auto repair shop they will have welding equipment. Look at the gas bottles and see who fills them. It is normally written on the tanks. Or ask someone.

I asked my LFS already before they shut down, and the guy whos also a friend said the shops most get their refills from only deal with really large tanks, since the bottles stand about 5'+ tall...

Anyway, going out to fish street today to fill my empty bottle and buy a 4th so i can always have two on hand for my tanks... Just sucks thinking i may have to travel almost an hour if not more each time to fill my bottles...

Also, just to let you all know, tried all the local gun shops and no go, none have refill service, they all seem to only sell small disposable Co2 cans for their guns...
