Can I Use Paintball Cannisters?

[EliteFishy]

Can I use the CO2 cannisters used for the paintball guns and use that for a aquarium CO2 unit? And also, where can I get CO2 refills?

Can I also use those beer keg cannisters like this one http/cgi.ebay.com/10-lb-Co2-Tank-Keg-Bee...1QQcmdZViewItem?

as long as u can find a regulator to fit the cannister to fit it up to the tanks deffuser then there's no problem.

CO2 is CO2 what ever it's used for.

You can get a regulator for the beer kegs from machine mart and all the fittings

Yeah, the CO2 canisters from paintball guns will work.

You can use them but unless you have a frtee supply it's not really worth it. They are expensive compared to other co2 sources & a bit too small.
