Very complete system composed by very high quality products! What I appreciated the most is the possibility to mix and match them to fit your needs. If I would change anything, I would add the possibility to order a Powerhead with the set to match the required flow for each system. Also, for those of us that don’t have a lot of experience with CO2 systems, basic installation instructions and start up sheet would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you AQUACAVE! My plants are very happy! Highly recommended!

Well put together system from different manufacturers. Easy to put together and use. Contrary to the instructions on the Milawakee regulator box, it is best to use the needle valve as the way to control bubbles per second. Just close the needle valve and set the low pressure gauge to around 10lbs and then slightly open the needle valve until bubbles begin to flow on the bubble counter. much easier to adjust a steady flow of bubbles now. If you only use the black adjustment crew knob, with the needle valve open all the way(as the instructions indicate), you will have to keep readjusting the bubble rate each hour because the pressure falls as gas is let out and the bubble rate slows each time, so you have to turn it up.
Overall a nice product that will surely get your planted tank looking its best!

Ive had this system up and running for a month or so now and am very pleased. I upgraded to 10 lb tank and an AM 1000 reactor, but otherwise took the default components. Having looked around for quite some time before purchasing I'm most impressed by the completeness of the system Aquacave put together. The only item I needed to add was a backflow check valve for the CO2 line, which should probably be included in the package. My suggestion to Aquacave is that you put together a comprehensive instruction sheet for setup. Currently a purchaser need to work through a hand full of separate instructions from the makers of each component (some are better than others, and some simply silent!). All in all a great package and well priced. Thanks!

Great system, if I would change anything, I should have upgraded to the pinpoint controller to control air & co2, it more accurate to. Peace of mind is worth another $90.
