My GAE stopped eating about a week ago, and 2 days ago I woke up to him looking terrible. He went from solid yellow to covered in black literally overnight. He's much more active than he used to be, and I've read that they can change colors, but the loss of appetite concerns me. All parameters...

Question- is it necessary to have one of the electrically-powered regulators for a CO2 system or can I just use a regular one and connect a bubble counter inline with the output? I have a regulator that was used in a home-brew setup, so I wanted to utilize that if possible. Thanks for the help...
