Yeah it is but it's for a mig welder so it's way to high for this aplication. I bought it at Princess Auto, cost $65.

How much total do you think that unit cost, just the reactor?

Nice work.
That's not a MAG it's a pump called Hydor, the size is 185gph. Well i'm a bodyman by trade so DIY is my whole life, just never worked with acylic before this. The unit cost was around $90 with the pump, the regulator cost $65 and the CO2 tank was $5 at a garage sale.

It's a 2.5 lb CO2 bottle, it's called Soda Express got it at a garage sale. You should be able to find them in the Buy and Sell for cheap, cost $3 to fill and any wine/beer supply place should fill it. I actually have 2 one just in case. Thanks for the compliments guys, still can't get over the low bubble count though :shock:
