A basic guide on how to set up a pressurised CO2 kit for a planted aquarium aquascape. The best way to grow aquatic plants faster is to add carbon dioxide via a pressurised CO2 system like this.

My main question is…is that a bed or a sofa?
George where did you get the cool shirt? Rachel O’Leary recently wore one in a video too.
Is it worth getting a co2 system for a 36 gallon planted tank, or can I use the liquid version
Can’t understand the thumbs down very helpful and informative thanks George
Is this suitable for a marine system?
George can I run more than one tank of one Co2 tank? and if so how to do it

0:00 – 0:05 I thought there was only 2 Hodge twins?!?
How much would that setup cost.
Thank you! This was a very easy video to follow. I’m wanting to set up a co2 system on my 40 gallon breeder (about 150 liter tank). All of the different information and equipment out there makes it intimidating…this video honestly helped put my mind at ease.
George thanks for great Video’s can you do one on using one Co2 tank on several Fish tanks.

Could you do a video on where to place your diffuser.
I’ve always been avoiding co2, but I think I might try it soon.
I like when he lubed the nipple 🙂
Whats the brand name-of the regulator? Diffuser and counter?
Perfect vid!! Very good explained. Thanks to other mate of UKAPs. Regards George.
If you’re open to suggestions i’d love to see you set up an aquarium and through each episode upgrade it until you’re at a high light/high tech system. This is similar to what BulkReefSupply did with 52 weeks of reefing and does a great job of catering to every level of knowledge because the system starts at the complete basics and then ends at very advanced (co2, high light, possibly auto dosing pumps, EI dosing ect) Really love your work 🙂
Till how many days a 2kg cylinder lasts.
Could you recommend a co2 diffuser which is compatible with the tropica nano pressurized co2 system
Good video. When I decide to use co2 at least I know where to start. Thanks for sharing.
Are these regulators made specifically for aquarium CO2? I have a regulator that I use for carbonating homebrewed beer will that work?
Do you count bubbles or just rely on the dropchecker? Thank you, great job!
I really like this video, and I find it very informative. However, I moved to the UK from the US, and I find it next to impossible to find regulators designed for tanks. The only place I can find them is on eBay, and I have no idea about the quality. Do you have a place where you recommend buying a regulator (i’m planning on doing the smaller paintball setup). Thanks.
Fantastic video. You did very well on explaining how to set up a CO2 kit.
Thank you for sharing.
I know this is an older thread, but was wondering if you have HOB filters in a 55 gallon, would you still use one diffuser? Thanks.
BRILLIANT!!! These are the types of informative videos I’ve not been able to find so thank you so much for doing them George!
Pleeeease could you make a similar video about setting up a tank filter with glass lily pipes etc. for those of us wanting to move from a hang-on-the-back filter aquarium? Perhaps in your new Evolution Aqua The Aquascaper 600?
Can you connect the ista 95g regulator to a 24oz paintball tank?
Awesome video George!…. Perfect tutorial, my question for you please sir is how long does a tank that size a one bubble a second last in a 30 gallon aquarium?…..and is one bubble a sec to much?…. Thanks for this video again, exactly what I was looking for!
I’ve been trying to convince myself to run a planted tank in my room. However, i’m kind of worried of running Co2 in there. Should this be a big worry at all?
Wow thanks so much!!!
Anyway your subscribers can get a discount on a co2 system ? Hehe
Can I used ro water for water changes for planted tank?
i wonder how many bubbles i need for my tank..i have 100 bubbles/minutes
Would this be the same for the nano CO2 sets such as the Tropica version?
George, you are using 8-9 BPS. What is the size of the Tank? What is your recommendation BPS for a 60cm Tank?
Another Q, there are 2 method of injecting co2 into the water. Using selenoid (following the lighting period) and using manual regulator where co2 injection is 24 hrs. What will be the pro and con to these 2 system?
Hi bro.! Where can I get those thing? And what is it call? I have 55 gallons fish tank , how long for last.! And is it expensive when we refill the presser Botto
