Hello all, thought I'd stop hijacking Purrbox's thread! I got everything set up tonight, it's all working great so far. Had a small leak at the regulator connection to the bottle, but thanks to Purrbox I was on it quick and got it fixed. Running a bubble a second in 2 tanks, got room for 1 more on this set-up. I'm also running a 20 pound bottle so I won't be running out of C02 for a while. I inject directly into the inputs of my cannister filters these days so no need for bubble counters as yet. Had to cram the whole thing in beside my desk and a filing cabinet, fits like a glove! I'll stay up and keep an eye on it for a bit to make sure all is well before I hit the sack.
I was getting good C02 levels with DIY as I changed my bottles out every week, even being that fanatic my C02 levels were still inconsistent, that's really why I coughed up the dough for pressurized. I plan on doing this hobby for a long time and I want consistent C02 levels and more stability in my tanks. I think pressurized is the only way to really achieve that, especially in high light tanks.
