a couple people make them on the plant sites. there is always ebay or other places. ones on the plant sites usually go for $10 each.

It's a CO2 drop checker. You put a stand solution in the glass bulb, put it in the tank, and watch the color change. It'll reach an equilibrium and at that point it'll tell you what your ppm of CO2 is.
