I'm looking to get pressurized C02 on my aquariums. I'm just clueless on what kind of regulator to get and what everything I need is. If anyone could make some recommendations on what to purchase it would help alot Thanks :D My budget is around 250$

You can get a Milwaukee CO2 Regulator w/Solenoid Diaphragm Valve & Bubble Counter MA957 around $90 and all you need is a co2 tank price is up to you on size #5 around $75 shipped and a #10 is around $90. Then all you need is some co2 line hose and your set.

I'm reading some reviews on this Milwaukee and alot of people don't seem happy =-\ anyone here use it with success or can recommend a different moderately priced regulator?

I found a place here in wash for a 5lb co2 aluminum tank filled for 60$ so I've got some spending room.

You can check out http://www.greenleafaquariums.com/co2-regulators/choice-co2-regulator.html they say they are really good regulator also Rex on planted tank sell them with very good parts. #5 is a good size what size tank you have?

I have found on Drfostersmith.com a great deal on the whole thing for 125. Includes regulator, solenoid, tubing, timer, bubble counter, and diffusor (what the guy forgot to mention). There's also a guy on eBay that I used (cnj0321) and his product was great.
