Co2 Equipment - Are These Okay? Diy Fe Pressurized

[phishyphil]

Okay, So im taking the plunge and incorporating CO2 into my 75g 4' Planted Setup.

I need to know if this equipment is suitable to use in the tank, please could you advice if this is fine

I already have:
(*) Check Valve
(*) CO2 air Line
(*) Bubble Counter

Would this CO2 Regulator be okay?

Ebay CO2 Regulator

Would i need an attachment for the air line tubing?

Would this fire extinguisher be okay?
Ebay - CO2 Fire Ext

Would this Diffuser be okay?
Ebay Co2 Diffuser

Is there any other equipment needed?

Regards

hi,
The extinguisher and diffuser look fine, but if it was me I would get a Regulator with solenoid magnetic valve so you can set your CO2 system on a timer. Just an idea

The nano diffuser is quite tiny, get a bigger one

Just a heads up, I got this exact one, it works fine but the solenoid on mine stopped working after 3 months, and as most of the sellers of these units only guarantee these systems for 30 days I had to buy a new solenoid but a different make, since then its been fine. but it cost me an extra £22 for the solenoid.

Ah Cheers mate. Any issues with the regulator? fitment okay onto the FE?

 

[Dan-CR4]

the regulator fits fine on an FE and works well, no leaks. As I say the only weak part was the solenoid but it could 0f just been my one. Would I buy another, I propably would as apart from that solenoid I think mine was still a good buy.
