Why do we need CO2 in the aquarium?

In a planted aquarium, CO2 is the one nutrient the water cannot supply on its own. Inject it steadily and plants pearl, colours deepen and algae loses its head start.

CO2 for beginners

Build your CO2 system

Seven questions about your aquarium, your cylinder and your filter, and you end with a system whose parts are made to fit each other. The price is the sum of the parts.

Dual-stage regulators

Pro-SE or Pro-Elite?

Both are dual-stage, so the pressure does not surge when the cylinder runs low, the fault single-stage regulators are known for. The difference is how much pressure they give you, and how steadily they hold it.

Just recently installed - first ever c02 experience in my planter tanks - couldn’t have been easier - quality components that is easy to notice

RandyVerified buyer River Ridge, Louisiana

Very nice setup, bought for a high tech tank and ended up ordering another for my low tech tank.

Daryl O.Verified buyer Boulder, Colorado

Great. Took a minute to connect to the manifold body and another one or two to connect the c02 line and fill the bubble counter. I like the unit a lot and will most likely get a third one. I use two diffusers in my 40gal breeder, one at each end.

GerryVerified buyer Boca Raton, Florida

The quality seems very high. I had difficulties mounting my additional diffuser block, but customer services was excellent to work with. I highly recommend this product and company.

Luke S.Verified buyer Williamsburg, Michigan

Works better than any any check valve I've ever seen & that's why they're made the way they are. I will continue to buy products from this company everything.
