I want to set up an 75G and with minimum cost.I can't aford the co2 system and i will go for co2 DIY bottles.
So i have 2 options

1 put 2 bottles one in the outlet of my 2215eheim canister filter and one in the Aqua el witch breaks the co2 in small bubbles.


2 but an 47eu aqualine Reactor M and connect it to the co2 bottle.And how the CO2 reactor works?

I made myself a modified bell reactor from an old gravel vac, IMO it works quite well (very little of the CO2 is allowed to escape in the form of a bubble). I personally like the idea of the reactor the best, possibly because that's what I have the experience in .

However you are likely to not have as much success with DIY CO2 on a 75 simply because of the size of the tank. I'd look into getting the 3L bottles, possibly using 2 of them together.
