Just when everything was running fine, my tank decided to run outta CO2! So, last friday... we took a leisure drive down to Taman Sungai Besi in KL, on a hunch from MAC that one could get a refill for RM10! After a 20mins drive, passing the Nirvana Memorial building on the left, you'd find Taman Sungai Besi a short distance away. It took me less then 10 minutes to get my tank refilled with 2KG worth of CO2, cheap, efficient and fast... what more could one ask for! Do call in advance as i did find out that the person who does CO2 refills, actually stops work at 4:30PM. Also mention that you're getting a refill for your aquascaped tank, as it seems this gets you the good rates mention in MAC! Thanks to the folks on MAC, this is by far the cheapest find for CO2 refills all over KL!
You can find a google map here!
Address is :- 30, Jln 13/108C, Tmn Sg Besi, 57100 KL.

this shop selling co2 tank or not?
ReplyDeletei'm in searching for my planted tank. now using co2 fire extinguisher..
i think they do! drop 'em a call n see :) definately cheaper then purchasing for LFS!
ReplyDeleteThe price of CO2 refill has gone up. It's now RM12 for 5lbs and RM22 for 10lbs.
ReplyDeleteThe latest CO2 cylinder price is:
ReplyDeleteRM140 for 5 lbs
RM160 for 10 lbs
10lbs is more worth it but it's bloody heavy. It's a torture to carry one to an apartment with a long way to walk :(
fwah, tat's so much cheaper when i bought mine years ago! Well, I guess they're doing well to be able to charge that amount! :)
ReplyDeletehow long does normally 5ibs last..mine only about 2 to 3 weeks..
ReplyDeleteno way!! Mine would last a good 6months! wat's your bubbles per second count at? and how big a tank do u use it for? Mine's use for a 2x1feet aquarium actually!
ReplyDeleteplease help me. if i buy the co2 tank from here, do i need to modify anything or i can straight us the regulator that are sell at LFS?
ReplyDeleteplease do help me =(
Hi Omar! Yes, most co2 has the same gauge to be fitted to the regulators. Best I guess is to buy your regulator firstly seeing as it'd would cost you much more. The only go CO2 tank shopping lah. it's been a while since i've been back though!
ReplyDeletelol, thanx a lot querked ^^, sorry for the late reply.
ReplyDeleteow ya guys, is the 5 lbs = 3 KG that they sell at LFS?
ReplyDeleteHi Omar,
ReplyDeleteYeap! It's the medium size tanks. I know they can get smaller and even bigger, but i think the 5lb tanks are the defaults as it fits nicely under our usual 2x2 feet tanks! :)
Are they opened on Saturdays? I tried calling but nobody's picking up.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since i've been back myself unfortunately, so your guess is as good as mine :)
ReplyDeleteIs the CO2 refilled in this shop is food grade CO2 which can be used in kitchen (for carbonated drink)?
