gosh dangit.

First the DIY didnt make any bubbles at all, and now the Hagen co2 system thing, with directions completely followed, still no bubbles. waaaah.

Although i see the water in the tubing thats below the surface has been pushed out by pressure. still no bubbles.
 
well if the water is being pushed out of the tubing it should be working... it takes a while for the co2 to start coming out steadily. but maybe you could have made the water in the mixture too hot and it could have killed the yeast, or it could be too cold for it to ferment...
 
also with the nutrifin system, check the ph in your water. with a high ph, adding the entire stabilizer packet will severely slow it down. my water here is around 7.8, and i only use a pinch or two of it.
