The Chihiros Mini CO₂ Regulator Kit is a compact, plug-and-play carbon dioxide system designed specifically for nano and small planted aquariums up to roughly 60 litres. Built with a space-saving aluminum alloy and stainless steel body, it provides precision pressure control via a built-in gauge to maintain stable plant growth without bulky equipment.

What Is Included in the Box:

• Mini CO₂ Regulator: Sleek main assembly with an integrated needle valve and pressure gauge.
• 16g CO₂ Cartridges: Three threaded, disposable cylinders (UNF 3/8 thread) to get started immediately.
• Nano CO₂ Diffuser S: A fine ceramic diffuser that creates a tiny mist for optimal gas dissolution.
• U-Clip (8mm): A sturdy metal hanger to neatly route the airline over the rim of the glass.
• CO₂ Tubing: One meter of soft, pressure-rated silicone airline tubing.

Performance & Lifespan:

• Cartridge Duration: A single 16g cartridge lasts approximately 35 days when running at a steady rate of 1 bubble every 5 seconds for roughly 8 hours per day.
• Target Setup: Ideally suited for desktop setups, 30cm cubes, and aquariums under 38 litres where aesthetic minimalism is key.

Notable Limitations & Upgrades:

• Manual Control: The standard kit does not feature electronic shut-off. You must manually close the valve every night when the lights go off to protect livestock from oxygen deprivation.
• Solenoid Upgrade: You can purchase the matching Chihiros CO₂ Solenoid & Power Supply.
• Bluetooth Timer: You can purchase the matching Chihiros Bluetooth Controller For CO2 to control the time on the My Chiriros App.
