I am looking for some info or pics of co2 setups on large tanks 300+gallons..
I got two 20lbs co2 tanks, but i am not sure how to plumb them? can anyone refere me to some good reading or pics? just looking for somthing to give me some ideas.. thanks all
 
Plumb them separately. How much lighting will you have, and type of lighting, what types of plants, and what kind of ferts?
 
all that is still in the works. the tank is not even finished, i lack the glass for the front viewing pannel, i am going to go order that today.. and two fx5's. lighting will probly be T5's.,

-if i plumb them seperate how big should i make the reaction chambers? and what kind of water flow should i have flowing through them?

the plan is to plumb the fx5 into 1" pvc that runs into bulkheads in the tank, they will be below the water line, kinda like a closed loop. so i could plumb the co2 from the reaction chamber into the 1"pvc return from the fx5.
