FZONE 4L Aquarium CO2 Generator System Carbon Dioxide Reactor Kit with Regulator and Needle Valve for 600-800g Raw Material
INSTRUCTIONS
- Mix 600-800 gram citric acid and 600-800 gram sodium bicarbonate inside the bottle
- Add 900-1200ml tap water to the bottle and cap the bottle with the enclosed regulator quickly
- While the CO2 gas is produced slowly inside the bottle, adjust the needle valve accordingly. It takes approximately 45 minutes for the bubbles to stabilize after each needle valve adjustment
- If the solenoid is purchased, remove the bubble counter from the regulator (do NOT unscrew the regulator) and attach the solenoid to it. Connect the power cord to the electrical outlet. As gas is continued to generate inside the bottle, adjust the needle valve to the desired bubble count
Q: Is the bottle body strong enough under the pressure? What are the specific parameters?
A: Yes. The bottle is completely safe. The bottle has a safety valve built-in. It will open automatically when the inside pressure exceeds the threshold
Ideal DIY aquatic co2 system with profesional co2 tubing ,glass diffuser
CO2 generator is based on the principle reaction of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate mix with water, high purity of carbon dioxide gas is produced. After fully reaction, the CO2 goes through a pressure regulator, bubble counter and diffuser, provide a stable output pressure and flowrate, supply CO2 for photosynthesis, completely solve the disadvantages of the reactive generator pressure instability.
Fzone‘s CO2 generator kits included almost all stuffes needed in auqatic co2 system.
- 8ft professional PU tubing(NOT normal silica gel material) with fixing suction cups, super clear.
- glass diffuser with U shape connector.
- funnel and measuring cup make it easy for you to replace the raw materials
Dual gauge regulator together with safety valve, bubble counter
- Precision needle valve. The CO2 flowrate allowing to go as slow as 1 bubble per 5 seconds with our high precision needle valve.
- Safety valve, will open automatically when the pressure is higher than the allowed threshold.
- Bubble Counter, you can read your CO2 flow rate directly on the bubble counter cylinder. Bubble counter with check valve built-in to stop water from back-flowing to CO2 tank.
- Pressure indicator, indicates when it’s time to refill raw materials.
OTS Mini DC 12V Solenoid Valve
â—OTS 12V DC mini solenoid valve, safer than AC solenoid.
â— Energy-saving – low power consumption: 0.4 watt only. keeps the solenoid cool to the touch during operation.
â— Use with a timer, solenoid valve allows for CO2 to be switched on/off at defined times, e.g. to synchronize with the aquarium lighting.
â— Red LED on/off indicator – the operation (on / off) of the solenoid valve can be confirmed by the red LED.
â— No noise – without buzzing or humming sound.
â— High-quality model – OST brand, special structure for long-lasting durability and dependability.
Upgraded bottle height and diameter rate, solid material used
- Bottle height upgraded to 16inch (2inch higher than the 2L generator bottle), avoiding the overflow efficiently before the regulator screw in which is caused by the reactor of the citric acid and sodium bicarbonate.
- The bottle is made of 1.5mm of SUS304 stainless steel (25% thicker than the regular 1.2mm bottle) and can sustain a pressure of 1137 PSI.
Attention:
- Adding excessive raw materials and water is prohibited.
- It is forbidden to invert the bottle. Stronger acid and alkali raw materials are prohibited.
- When using this product for the first time, there will be large bubbles in the diffuser, which will gradually disappear within 2-3 days.

Awesome setup for my 10 gallon planted aquarium! So far, my plants are thriving. Setup was super easy and the solenoid is a must unless you’re home all day to turn it on and off. Looks like the solution will last a few months.
I bought two.
Each one has been awesome.
We have one on a 15 gallon and another on a 67 gallon. Each has plants that are just flourishing.
Valves and seals are great. Volume to store the material is perfect.
It recommends 200g & 220g of material. I use 300g & 330g and I only replace it once every 3 weeks.
The bubble counter is clear and straight forward. Valves responsive to adjustment.
Would definitely recommend this is you’re looking for quality and weighing it against price.
This was my first time experimenting with CO2 in my tank. This was extremely easy to use, great for beginners. Also, no leaks. For smaller tanks this works really well. I have had for almost a month, and it is almost ready to refill. I keep it at 1 bubble per second. Overall great product, and great for the fish tank and plants.
Affordable must have for planted freshwater fish tanks. I’m using mine in a sump that feeds a 11 tank system. Plants are doing great at a minimal cost to me because i can mix my own ingredients to make co2. Have a electric solenoid valve on it thats controlled by a timer to feed the system for 8 hours aa day while the lights are on.
