CO2 is CO2. A PB tank is filled with the same CO2 as a standard tank. PB tanks can be bought at many sports/gun sales stores and even Dick's used to sell them. You have your choice of various sizes.How much does it cost? And also can u fill it up with regular co2
As JRman83 pointed out, any paintball tank will work as long as it is a CO2 tank. The Compressed Air tanks are more expensive so I don't think that will be a problem. I have my tanks filled at the local paintball place here.Jshaw what paintball tank is it

Really? Do you have a reliable source for the information? In all the years I've been doing this and been a member of the forum I have never heard anything like this. Not trying to refute you but I am highly skeptical. Consider all the folks using these systems not to mention the regulator manufacturers. You'd think if that was a real issue it would come up frequently.I heard that paintball tanks have oils that can harm the fish.

I was thinking of getting that regulator. Do you like it? I've been thinking of ordering one soon.Yes you can.

That is a Aquatek regulator hooked to a bubble counter and diffuser. I got them on Amazon.
On my 36 gallon a 24oz paintball tank lasts 6-8 weeks. I would advise buying 2 tanks so you always have a full replacement available.On average how long is this particular setup lasting you guys? I have a 29 gallon tank and I'm thinking of going this route.
I don't really need a high bps. Is there a way to maximize the time between refills? Since the aquatek mini is set at 50 psi, I was wondering if there was leeway for user input variability to make the system last longer?On my 36 gallon a 24oz paintball tank lasts 6-8 weeks.
