Do you go to a motorcycle mechanic when your bicycle is broken? Its the same but different... Most people on R2R wont have any idea how to run a hightech planted tank. Its the same but different...

It may be how you go about asking questions and immediately dismiss and joke about everything, its not conducive to people wanting to help honestly.

ye true...
I do trust u tho
but I have seen a lot of good reviews of the neo co2, but joking and dismissing?

Those are not worth the effort. If you want to run co2 run co2 but please at least read the planted tank forums on the subject first. I had a pretty nice paint ball cylinder co2 system I got from buce plant years ago for a small 8g I was running. It worked well and lasted about a month per fill I think it was $5 a fill. I think the unit cost me around $90 came with a new co2 cylinder.

Just so you know when you say things like this and the I trust you and you guys have all the info I cant go anywhere else and then do what you want anyway people give up on you. This is why this thread is littered with people calling you a troll. I dont think you are trolling on purpose but it ends up being taken that way. I mean honestly why even ask if you are going to do what you wanted to in the first place? just do it! save us the finger tips and bandwidth. Live with the success or consequences of your decisions.
I am not being mean. I am however being honest. I have also tried to help you in this thread and others and I see why there is frustration with you and your replies. I get you have adhd and stuff Heck a lot of people from my generation probably do too including me we just were not diagnosed and were told to sit down and shut up a lot. Maybe every whim doesnt need to be posted. Maybe a journal would give you an outlet. I dont know I am spit balling here. Peace and good will!

Hes said it.

 

[saltytanked]

Hes said it.

lol wow

 

[Reign1]

WOW just wow. Soo why come to a SW forum ask questions about planted setup, get solid advice , ignore said advice. I would either NOT do CO2 or Go all in on CO2.I would not waste my coin on other methods $.02 BTW there are sooo many Planted sites .

Also funny how people think this thread is spicy .. You should see mentioning SW stuff in a Planted forum. I instantly get hate responses like " go back to your Marine stuff you &%$. Funny planted people are way more judgmental and close minded than reefers LOL.

 

[twentyleagues]

lol wow

u aren't being mean, u are saying what everybody else wanted to say, "I mean honestly why even ask if you are going to do what you wanted to in the first place?" I do that all the time without even knowing It half the Time and I hate myself for it...
but, I can't use adhd as an excuse anymore, too old for that stuff. tried a journal, but it was annoying and its too boring
sorry everyone

 

[Doctorgori]

could I just use liquid co2 instead?

NO such thing as liquid CO2 better using a good light and AIO fert. instead of misleading product.

this has been truly horrific to read through..

He is trolling…

After 6 pages I feel so empty and incomplete

Dont be too hard on yourself. Hate is a strong word. Maybe when you get your salt tank up...is it up? Start a build thread and post your ideas there that way people who follow it can reply and you wont get the push back you seem to get.

I have a build thread...

[stewy14]

also just wanted to ask people if I should, directed towards people who have used it
IM NOT STARTING THAT OVER
if the Neo doesn't work, then I will listen to all of u, and do what u told me to(why did I even ask?)

 

[Devisissy]

WAIT ONE MINUTE. OK so you people, yeah you! Telling me my JBJ doesn't look NATURAL because it is thought out with growth requirements and settings and GASP, "CO2"!?! WHATEVER! I bet you all have mulm covered potato/pothos root laden mud boxes? And guppies? They ain't even fish unless you ask that 80 year old Walstad hack with her potted plants. ShE iZ GuPPi BrEdER NoW!

/sarcasm (except walstad, all that is true)

Kessil T5 29gal in basement that I never look at anymore. It is 50% LiQUiD CaRBOn! And 50% tears of the Walstad group.
