what about regulators, or how you measure it. do you buy the expensive auto one's, or what? what should you plan to dish out initially. the hydro shop guy said $300 for tank and whatever to regulate it, $25 for refills, he said ever 3 weeks. is this accurate to you?
I was looking at co2 PPM meters i found a digital meter for around $160, but if you want a co2 controller that keeps your ppms at constant with a digital read out, that runs minimum $400.
So im figuring ill get the regulator for around $120 to $160 for what i would need. A 20lb tank runs around $100 if you want your own tank. And i definatly want to be able to measure my ppm's so at least the $160 digital meter so around $300 to $450 to do it. But if I want to do it totaly automated im thinking $600 to $750.

If anyone knows were to get this equipment cheaper or to do the co2 in a effective and cheaper way please feel free to chime in.
