    Default My CO2 Tank is ready. Where can I fill it up with CO2

    Thanks Gordon (gklaw) for installing the connector for my CO2 tank so I can use my CO2 needle valve.

    My CO2 tank is now ready and I just need to know where I can fill up the tank with CO2 in Richmond.

    I'm surprised gklaw didn't point you to DBC Marine in Richmond...that name comes up every time CO2 fills are brought up. Cheapest too, but too inconvenient for me as I have only 5 minutes from Royal City Fire Supply. KMS Tools does it too, and so will many welding places, beverage places (carbonated drinks) and other fire safety places (any place that fills fire extinguishers).

    I hardly go there. I used to fill up at Royal City. Now at AW in Port Moody 5 minutes from me

    They are all within $5 from each other. With gas price these days, the closest one always win.

    Hahaha...you're right, gas price or not, it's the time I cannot afford. But since the OP is from Richmond, I just assumed DBC....

    Looking forward to see the result of CO2.

    Hemianthus Callitrichoides (HC, Dwarf Baby Tears, Cuba)(Limited)

    I hope my HC dwarf will grow better.

    It is turning a little bit yellow like the Christmas moss.

    It could be too much light but I have reduced the light to go on for only 6 hours.

    I have the Glo T5HO 2 bulbs lamp. I wish the light can work with just 1 bulb, but it does not.

    Your HC will definitely benefit from CO2.

    Cheers,
