Hey guys, I will be purchasing (hopefully) a CO2 setup for my new 125 gallon tank and I need help choosing a CO2 system. I want to use a paintball canister to run the CO2 out of it so I decided to go with a setup from RedSea but I'm not sure which one to go with to be honest. I have no experience with CO2 systems or contained air for that matter and I don't know what the solenoid does and if I actually "need" one or "SHOULD" have one. I would like your expert opinions on the matter. Here are the two systems that I am debating between:
Without solenoid: http://www.bigalsonline.com/BigAlsUS/ctl3684/cp18478/si1431675/cl0/redseaco2prosystempaintball
With solenoid: http://www.bigalsonline.com/BigAlsU...l0/redseaco2prosystempaintballdeluxewsolenoid
I found the one w/o the solenoid for ~$110 and the one WITH the solenoid for ~$150 so hopefully BigAls will live up to its price matching guarantee and deliver a good deal for me.
If anyone has any setup in mind that is better/cheaper feel free to send a link to it as it would help me out greatly. Have a nice day all!
EDIT: I keep forgetting CO2 is in liquid form in the canister and not gas form. Seems like a solenoid controls the flow of fluids???
