I bought a dual system from co2art. I agree that their customer service is excellent!

Karol helped me out. I told her the system I was desiging and she told me every piece I’d need. Also very prompt at replying to email.
 
I got a Ultimate Complete Aquarium CO2 System from CO2 Art for my 500L tank, going for duel stage regulator prevents the end of tank dump of CO2 plus with being able to adjust the working pressure manually helps me to fine tun the CO2 injection rate without having to adjust the needle value. I use duel inline atomisers on mine both for getting the pH drop and one for maintaining pH drop.( Vids of setup here)

A 500l tank uses quite a bit of CO2 a 6.5Kg cylinder last me about a month, but I do have a big pH drop well over 1.0pH (is my pH probes are to be trusted) my DC is clear. I would go for the biggest CO2 cylinder you can fit in the space and get a spare one too.

but if you are only planing going to lime green on the DC the CO2 lasts much longer.

whats the dimensions of your tank your planing?

The tank is 60x22x28”
 
I’ve got some quick learning to do and in need of an acronym dictionary

It sure is Zeus, just going to have to see if it's enough. carpet area has 3" of substrate so that will reduce the depth a little.
