Hey Hey AA,
So I'm looking into starting a pressurized co2 setup and am getting lost in all the various gadgets and brands. What I could use a little help with is making sure i am at least looking in the right direction.
So to start my tank is a 20gal long that I would say is moderately planted with various low light, low maintenance plants. I dose dry ferts daily as well as flourish and api leaf zone weekly with my water change. I have been using the api co2 booster and would like to switch to a pressurized system to help with consistency.
Any advice or opinions on the following choice of equipment would be greatly appreciated
Regulator-
Amazon.com: CO2 Adjustable Flow Pressure Regulator: Pet Supplies
Diffusion-Lots of headaches here not sure whether a simple glass diffuser would suffice or if a reactor like this aqua medic one would be better.
Amazon.com: Aqua Medic CO2 Reactor 500 for Aquariums: Pet Supplies
As far as bubble counters and C02 indicators go I am really open to suggestions, i've been staring at various websites for 3 or 4 days now trying to gauge which style, type, or shape is the best.
Typically I lurk around in others threads and would appreciate any advice.
