Thing is awesome!
Killer set up. Powerful compact dual stage built to last. Nothing about it feels crappy or like tin metal. Love every inch of it!
-
Love the Mini DS
Like thats is very sturdy and well made, doesn't feel cheap like my oldie. Its been spot on with flow everyday now and could not be more pleased.
-
Awesome regulator.
GLA is know for being the best with co2 systems and I can attest to that. This regulator is definitely superior to my old Co2art shitbox.
-
Slick dual stage regulator.
One slick dual state regulator that’s very compact yet still has two actual dual stage pistons inside. The expandable manifold option is cool because I plan on expanding to add another tank on my rack. Super stable and a high quality build.
-
Sick dual stage!
Impressive regulator. Its built like a real piece of equipment and not some funny toy. Very high quality and pumped on the modular solenoid, perfect for my rack of tanks.
-
GLA co2 systems are the best of the best.
I like this mini because it has everything the full sized Pro DS has at a fraction of the price. It even has the modular solenoid system that I do plan to expend one day. Likely come winter I’ll add an extra manifold for an adjacent nano tank I’m working on. Very heavy duty construction and the finish is excellent. It’s truly a premium product. Much higher quality than co2art. Which to me was sort of like a toy or made from recycled beer cans. That needle valve sucked ass too. Go GLA you won’t regret it.
-
This co2 regulator is awesome!
Really pumped on this dual stage co2 regulator. Very nice function from the manifolds and I'm really happy how I can expand to feed more tanks as my hobby grows. Very impressive stuff.
-
The best dual stage co2 regulator for this price.
Excellent build quality on this regulator. Much nicer than the Fzone junk on Amazon. Night and day difference all around so if your looking for an upgrade this is a great co2 regulator for this kind of money. Wait until you see how nice the manifold block performs! Love love love it!
-
An amazing co2 regulator for your planted tank.
This is hands down the best dual stage regulator in a compact size. Not only that! But you can add additional manifolds to this model to feed any number of tanks. Butter smooth valve like always from GLA.
-
Beautifully made co2 regulator.
For my requirements I needed a compact regulator and this certainly fit the bill. However I found out it has no limitations to its abilities like its counterpart the Pro DS. Super good customer support and the quality of the regulator is unmatched.

Rock Solid
Worth every cent. Rock solid regulator. After getting used to the initial pressure build up, I set the bubble count and haven't had to touch it since. That needle does not move unless you touch it. First regulator I've ever owned that I didn't have to fidget with on a constant basis. Amazing construction, this thing feels like quality when you hold it. I was hesitant to spend the money when I first looked at this regulator. But the modular system, quality control, and the needle valve absolutely won me over. There's a reason they can charge what they do. Simply the best. You have a life-long customer!
-
Well made, good reliability.
Good working co2 regulator, its very precise and rock steady. I was very surprised how well its made for what you pay. I work in the oil and gas industry so Im familiar for repeatability and reliability. This unit offers both, and you will see upon its form and function. The video instructions were terrific, cant ask for more. Kudos GLA.

Exceptional co2 regulator
Very pleased, and I must say very nice quality and ease of installation. The precision of the needle valve is uncanny, much nicer than others I’ve used.

Finally… I got what I paid for.
I just have a couple of small tanks but growing plants has always been the draw for me. I have used everything out there in the market to inject CO2. DIY… small CO2 cartridges… paintball tanks with Fzone regulators. Why I spent so much money on all of that I don’t know. It’s all about the regulator. No… it’s all about the needle valve! GLA ‘s regulator is the first one I have owned that actually is adjustable… and it stays adjusted! No more fiddling every day to get things just right. I would have and should have saved a few hundred dollars if I had gotten this one first… but I thought the others were good enough and I could make them work. Some did… for a week or even a month… but soon enough I was back to shopping for another “cheap” way to add CO2 to my tanks. This IS the cheap way!

Lovely co2 system
Delighted with this purchase and support from GLA Aquariums. Very profesional and extremely knowledgeable. A US based comapny with high quality co2 equipment you can count on. This was very easy to install and the adjustments we could tell were very precise, very well made equipment.
-
I love this co2 regulator.
Very well made, precision adjustments when you need them. This needle valve is like nothing else Ive used before. 5 stars!

GLA DS-Mini Regulator
I've just set up this regulator, so I can't yet comment on its reliability and stability. I like its compactness and it's heft is reassuring. The quality of the finish is excellent and the components appear to be 1st rate. The only negative comment I have regards the difficulty in adjusting pressure because control knob is smooth chrome and quite slick. Knurling would improve it. It also has very short range of range of movement between highest and lowest pressure, making it touchy for repeatability of the setting. As I gain more experience with the regulator, I’ll update if allowed.

Primo Co2 regulator.
Love this, dual stage, compact and modular GLA style. Only the best!
-
GLA is without doubt the best in the co2 game.
Officially a GLA fan for 8 months. Having made the mistake of buying the cheaper competitor, Ive learned my lesson once. There are a few key notes to mention about GLA. Customer support is like nothing Ive ever experienced. They answered all my questions 7 days a week, even on Sunday. The regulator is built twice that of any Amazon crap box, because thats what Fzone ended up being. A real shit box. Luckily I was able to return it and get my money back and give it to GLA. The regulator is simply built larger and more substantial. It doesnt feel like a paper clip like the Fzone. Fzone seemed disposable lol. Whereas GLA you can feel the quality in your hands, especially the way the needle valve responds ot adjustments, it was like smooth icing on my cakes.

Superb co2 regulator from GLA, we love it.
This is one cool co2 regulator. Its dual stage, adaptable to all cylinder types. Its extremely well built and the needle valve is so much nicer than my previous needle valve. Im not very savy with the regulator tech, but I know when something feels well made, and this is no exception. The fines of everything and its compact build looks so cool in my cabinet. GLA when will you guys allow us to post photo?!
