ok..i just spent the past hour trying to fix this. the problem is the pressure on the co2 cylinder is going down wayyy too fast. i adjusted the pressure to 800 psi and it goes down to 0 very quickly. is a leak causing this? or am i suppose to turn the knob on the cylinder to the max? i tried to turn the knob on the co2 cylinder a bit higher but then i hear a pssst sound, and the pointer in the gauge went off the charts so i quicky lowered it.could it be that the regulator is not on tight enough? the type of regulator im using from red sea if that helps.
edit: i read rex's guide on how to set up a pressurized co2 system. and that answers most of my questions. but it is still making noise when i turn the cylinder knob. ive been tightening the regulator nut to the point where i have to use my body weight to push down on the wrench and palms have started hurting. is it still not tight enough? or have i broken the regulator? or is the co2 leaking out of somewhere else?
