Can you post a link? If it is an auction and you don't want to get sniped, PM me the link. I am not in the market for a CO2 system and am pretty curious!
There is no link. On my local fish forum I had posted that I was looking for C02 stuff and this is what he said he had. I will ask him for some pics and more info.
This is what the guy has to say about the eheim regulator, he is going to send me pictures tonight.
"You don't see very often these awesome little guys because they were expensive so not so many people bought them, if my memory serve me right I most have paid a little over 300 just for the regulator.
They are very efficient and accurate uses no electricity unless you use the solenoid; I rather not by the way."
If you were buying new, this is the cheapest you could expect:
Milwaukee Reg/Solenoid/Needle Valve/Bubble Counter ---$90/shipped
5# tank $65-80/filled (locally if you call around)
Ceramic Diffuser, $2
So, anything more than $150-$175 is not a good deal. CO2 stuff doesn't really lose value, but you definitely shouldn't have to pay more for used stuff.
I am not looking to get the one on the E-bay auction, I had asked the guy who wants to sell the stuff to me to give me brand names. He didn't know the brand name so he just found a picture of what it looks lke.
It's a single gauge regulator....problem with that is you won't know when the tank will be empty until it's completely empty. With 2 gauges, you have a couple days notice.
You also don't get a needle valve with that. For $150, you should be getting a needle valve.
I'd pass and try to get the 10# tank/package for $150.
Looks like the one I posted a picture of. Pass on it.
