Looks like that will be me as well thanks. My brain always hates me but which inline would I need for a 5/8" inner diameter tubing?
 
You need 16/22 inline equipment. You could also get yours from GLA, I think they just got more in stock if you wanted
 
officially have all my hardware ordered, and set up with peabody for plants the moment i get back from vacation...
 
Update:

Got back from vacation to orange water... gotta live tannins lol. Though my atomizer was here when I returned. Doing a 90% pwc and starting my cycle with seeded media. Mixing pps pro tonight after I borrow a friends gram scale. Rivercats if you see this can you repeat your 3 bottle mix set up for me?

Also co2 set up

With out losing CO2 how do i remove the film from the surface that is forming. normally i would agitate the surface but wouldn't i lose co2 doing that?
 
You can remove that biofilm by laying a clean paper towl flat on the water, then slowly taking it off, works really well actually.

Also, heres the info I think youre looking for, it can also be found on the GLA site

1bps is a good starting point then adjust from there. And I'm sure rivercats or zimm already mentioned to add some glut or excel to your fert mixes I'm sure they did but I'd hate to see them go bad. Your going to love what pps-pro does for your plants. Mine grow like weeds. I'm lovin the setup so far. I did diy co2 on my 20 its a PITA be glad you got all the pressurized stuff I use only glut on my other two tanks though and it works great. I now use glut and diy co2. My next tank ill be using pressurized though. I'll definatly be following along. (y)
 
Ya I figure they didnt forget lol it will take them a couple weeks to establish then all of a sudden BAM there 1/2way up the tank. LoL I had mine planted a few weeks before I started pps pro I did the first dose and was gone for a week and had my wife dosing everything and when I got home I was amazed at how much they grew. Makes me wish my 20 was taller lol. I'm sure with everyones help it will look great. Oh and peabodys has amazing plants my Fl sunset crypt only lost one leaf in shipping and transitioning. And out of the 20 or so diff types of plants not counting individual stems I got from them only one didn't survive shipping and he was quick to refund it. Just don't forget a lot of his plants are grown emersed he is working on making it so that the ones he gets in get transitioned from emersed to submersed bit its still gonna be a little while on that one.
 
Hc replant to space out smaller groups
