That would be a nice setup. Austin Homebrew had a good price on that regulator- I guess they figured it was too good! Anyways I wish there was a less expensive adapter for that regulator. The one on that engraving site is overpriced. O' well. I've been mostly satisfied with the large disposable cartridges on my 10 gallon. I found some 98g disposables at the local sporting goods store for only $5 each so I stocked up on a few of them. I'm also currently working on integrading a miniature solenoid vavle so I'm not wasting Co2 at night. I'm trying to get the service time on one of these cartridges from about 4 weeks up to around 8 weeks. $5 for 8 weeks of Co2 won't be as bad. That's less than fishfood.

I bet in a little time other companies will make a similar paintball based system. It just takes one company to start the trend...If you are in SCAPE I believe this system will be utilized in the demo tank next week.

Oh...I like that one.

 

[Gomer]

ya, but who makes it?!

 

[shake]

Not sure who makes it, but it is available from the following site. www.up-aqua.com

It is not a very good site, and there is no prices to their products. But they seem to have a good range of products.

 

[fishfry]

Do they ship to other countries?

[TetraFreak]

I've got a bid on it!

I'm leary of used equipment, but parting out in worst case scenario will recoupe any monies spent.

Plus I'm local so shipping isn't an issue, Hopefully it won't turn into a bidding war.

 

[magicmagni]

Watch out it says the electrical stuff is 100V. That is not standard Voltage here.

CO2 regulator

Aquaculture Supplies, Pond Supplies, Lake Aeration, Aquarium Supplies, Orlando, Florida.

This is the best price I have seen for a pressurized CO2 system. Doesn't have bubble counter or check valve. The bubble counter is an easy DIY. I would not consider setting up any system that does NOT have a check valve. Suicidal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Also no tank.

 

[mhoy]

I've a limited 8" W x8" D x24" H storage area and I want to do CO2 on my new 24 g tank.

The Red Sea one looks a little plasticy (but I've never seen it in person).

Looks like the leland model here:

Anyone post the prices on the mini Leland CO2 regulator with a connector to a Paint Gun CO2 cartridge?

 

[Robert Hudson]

Its already being done. Red Sea has a C02 regulator system that uses a paint gun C02 cartidge, and it even cmes with one. You can buy it on the internet or at your local store.

 

[mhoy]

Edit: The Red Sea regulator does have two gauges./Edit

For a tiny bit more there seems to be better choices that are also compact.

$85 with dual gauges. Nice, relatively small. What do you guys think? http://www.williamsbrewing.com/Prod...91&ParentType=1&Category_ID=148&StartRecord=1

According to this other thread, the taprite 740 series has a minimal dump when the tank empties.
http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/...19056-wet-thumb-forum-device-avoid-co2-2.html

I'll probably order the following single regulator system for $89 for use with a paint ball tank.

[turbomkt]

Take a look at this. It will allow you to use most regulators with a paintball cylinder. Hmmm....:-k
