Do you mean a DIY, or someone who sells a complete setup? For full setups, petwarehouse.com had some pretty decent deals. For a DIY, on a lower-scale, I've built one using the yeast-sugar-water method and it works rather well, it's only drawback is having to re-mix the yeast-mix once in awhile, but it generates pretty decent Co2 output.

If your interested in that, I will get the link from my gf, as I've seem to have lost the plans for it..or I can describe howto build it, it is rather simple.

Here is the CO2 pressurized system for planted tanks. Much cheaper than most places.

I too use the DIY method ands I can't complain. I use a 2liter bottle for an extremely heavily planted 75 gallon and maybe mix new solution every 2-3 weeks. I find it works quite well for me. In fact I just took 15 bags of plants down to the local aquarium society meeting for them to auction off for the club.

Thanks for the replys guys I have the links marked. Mine is a 100 and was told a diy would not get enough co2 in the tank for plats to grow effectivly,hmmmmmmmmmmm

If I can diy i would have no problem with that at all

Yep, a DIY Co2 is the big pain in the but for a tank >60 gallons. All that mixing is very time consuming and eventually all that sugar and yeast you use is going to add up.

Use two diy bottles, one at each end of the tank
and sugar and yeast are cheap, besides, you can actively culture yeast and not have to buy it (i dont[ know how to, but it can be done)
