Im using a Electrolysis CO2 system, IMO its better than injection co2 as i dont want to throw down hundreds of dollars for a 29 gallon lol
The system is the plate mirror looking thing on the left
 
I don't mean to sound like an ass, but you do realize that the mixture of fish you have in there is not going to work out in the long run, right? Not to mention a few of those fish are going to get too large for that tank.

Regardless, it looks like you're off to a good start with the plants.

Cool, like I said, I'm not trying to crap on your thread. Just wanted to make sure.
