Hey guys! I'm new to plants and I know I can't have baby tears yet but I was just wondering if you can have liquid co2 with baby tears if you don't have a pressure system? I heard diy co2 isn't recommend with baby tears but I didn't hear anything about liquid co2.

Not sure why DIY CO2 is not recommended for DBT. The only issue is that not enough CO2 is produced to be really effective. But that depends on the size of the tank, number of reactors, method of CO2 introduction, surface agitation, amount of light, etc.
I've not heard of any issue with using Glutaraldehyde (active ingredient in API CO2 Booster, Seachem Excel, Metricide 14) with DBT; only with Vals, anacharis, and certain mosses.

I think it's worth a shot. Rivercats was able to grow plenty of plants with glut.

Oh and can you replant the cuttings even if they don't have roots?
