andy Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 About how long does a 5 pound bottle of CO2 last you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefhut Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I would guess about 4 to 5 months. I never have marked in out on paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smann Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 One of these days I'll have to write it down, must be a least 6 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-3 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Depends on the reactor and media also. Some reactors are more efficient than others. I would say 6 months on average. Later Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Thanks... I'm thinking of picking up a paintball 16oz canister and using that for a while. I can't afford $100 before Christmas (for a 5 pounder) but I can do $20 for a small bottle :-\ Looks like I could plan on a bit more than a month of use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaywood Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 5 1/2 months for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
