Hi,

I am looking for recommendations for a relatively simple setup for CO2 injection. I am not particularly wanting a do-it-yourself project, just a plug and play system. It will go with a 55 gallon tank, but if it would be capable of simultaneously handling two 55 gallon tanks, that would be a plus. I am currently only planning a single planted 55 gallon tank, but you know how these things go.

Pressurized system is what you want. Check out the link above. It'll tell you everything you need to know.

Alternatively, you can get an all in one package off ebay.

Search "Milwaukee Regulator"--it has the reg, solenoid, bubble counter, and needle valve all in one.

All you need after that is a co2 tank and a diffuser.

be warned though if you do ask Rex stuff he might not respond that fast, i think he might be having some health problems as of recently or something.

also here are two other good sites that sell stuff and thay will answer questions too.

thay aren't the cheapest but thay are probably the best around and all have first hand experiance with the regulators and planted tanks in general.
