Re: suggestions for CO2 for the mechanically inept?
Okay, I admire all you folks who do DIY CO2 bottles for years on end, but I
am already frustrated with it after about four months -- too much fluctuation
in CO2 levels, and a lot to remember to check (for someone who has trouble
remembering to take a once a day vitamin). To be real honest, I have always
ignored the posts when y'all start talking about needle valves and ballast
and such -- I skim, think "oh, that's way over my head," and move on to
something I can understand! :o)
Anyhoo, my birthday is coming up, and I can't think of anything I want more
than to be rid of making up sugar and yeast bottles every time I turn around.
I understand the part about finding a bottle of CO2 locally, but am
intimidated by the rest. Can someone hold my hand through all this technical
stuff? Who sells it all put together so I don't have to build it myself, and
who has the best prices?
One other question that is important to me is how to make this CHILDPROOF. I
have a two year old -- need I say more? I don't have to worry about her
messing with yeast bottles, but the other type makes childproofing a
necessity. My tank stand is open on the bottom, so I can't just put in a
child proof latch on the door.
Thanks in advance,
Catherine
