mmmm delicious
Holy cow!!! that is green. I am sorry, this must be very frustrating for you. how about a UV sterilizer?
lol nice only if nintendo wii were still rare.. I couldve bought some again and sold em for double = free co2 system :lipssealedsmilie: Idk will see how things go, if anything maybe will sell some stuff and get a regulator and as far as tank.. maybe my pop will let me trade in his acetylene tank for a co2 tank. hows your green water so far?? setup the system yet? any change?
Its pretty bad lol but i still cant compete with some of the greener tanks out there
edit: Heres a picture of one of the worst ive seen so far
I did consider a UV but at the moment just trying to fix things up with $0.00 spendings..
Set up the pressurized co2 yesterday morning. As of last night looked 100 times better. At that point, still a little cloudy, we'll see today when I get home.
Wow, that is bad....mine was nothing like that. I'd say you're way passed the "begining stages".
I'd say invest in a pressuried system before getting a UV sterilzer. You'll appreciate the pressurized in the long run, whereas a UV you barely need anyway.

Right now I will be trying to change the water even more often and bigger volume, today i changed about 75%. I will probably only put back 50-60% of that. will try reducing tank volume to allow for easier faster more frequent water changes
You just need more Daphnia; they convert Green Water into Fish Flesh! 
I don't know if adding daphs will keep your green to acceptable levels, but hey, it can't hurt!
