I have no idea what co2 system to get for my 125 never had any.
It's not, trust me, if I can do it anyone can. Here's the sticky I followed and it was very simple.... http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/f24/how-to-set-up-a-co2-system-137982.html.
You use dry ferts with a dirt tank ? Isn't that what the dirt is for? Just curious
The dry ferts are mixed with RODI water and replace the more expensive liquid fertilizers (Seachem, API). The dirt provides nutrients for root feeding. That said, it it not uncommon to add root tablet or pellet fertilizers to a dirt tank.
Another method you can use is doing a siesta. Do 4 hours on, 2 hours off, and 2-4 hours on again. I have some really low lights on my 220g which I run 1 hour before and after my metal halides so the tank is lite longer for more viewing.
