So I'm shopping around for a CO2 setup for a couple of nano cubes. Thinking about going with a 20oz paintball setup since the tank is only 4 gallons.
I can probably get a 5lb setup for $30 more....so still kind on the wall here - but the small footprint is appealing.
Anyone here use a paintball setup?
Typically lasts how long? Refill from? Cost?

Dick's sporting goods refills. Don't remember the price. They're always open. That seems to be the primary benefit.
Have a safe and happy holiday season!

Got 20oz paintball for $21 shipped. Amazon. $16 for the adapter. $4 for CO2 from Dicks (thanks Jim for the tip)
Should last in the nano for several months.

Re: 20oz Paintball CO2
And paintball tanks are exempt from hydrotesting. $4 per 20oz isn't a great bargain but a 20lb tank usually isn't a great accompaniment to a nano!
have fun!

After a few times you'll buy a refill station and start serving the club.
