Couple of questions...

Any recommendations on complete systems. I'm interested in getting everything except the tank in one package. I kinda liked the one from floridadriftwood.com but was waiting to hear any opinions.

Does anyone know about any laws in Manhattan about having CO2 tanks in apartment buildings? I have tried a carbo-plus and a hagen DIY sytem at the same time, (I know I could have bought a pressurized for the same money!), with my PH never going below 7 and a KH of 4-5. My carbo-Plus has only been running for about 2 weeks and it's totally encrusted in the calcium(?) deposits. I must admit I'm kinda lazy...and also very busy to be looking for the the best deal on individual parts. I'm OK with spending between 200-300$.

Sorry to change the subject but I just remembered one other question off topic. What's a good prefilter for the intake on a canister filter? My Fluval 404 is getting clogged up with plant matter.

Well thanks for reading this longwinded post.
