in the long run pressurized CO2 is cheaper and much easier. you also get the option of regulation the flow with more accuracy.
it cost about $3 to fill a 20oz CO2 and depending on the tank you can go for weeks(I can hit up to 4 weeks on my 75)
I have multiple tanks (3) so I go out about once every couple months spend $6 and fill them then rotate bottles as needed. space was an issue on my decision I would have rather had a larger bottle but I don't have the space to keep one.
while the red sea is not the 'premier' set up you can find the complete set up for about $139-159 all you need is the bottles (filled) after that.
