CO2 tube splitting

[Paulus]

i was wondering if i can split the co2 tube i use for my big tank.

I am setting up (again ) my 60cm tank and maybe i want to use CO2 for it. before i used bioCO2 (works also). I have an empty 500Gr co2 bottle. but i need a regulator for that. and they cost alot so i was thinking how to use the 10KG co2 for my big tank.

like this:

or will i lose pressure to the small tank?

I'm not 100% percent positive but I think the CO2 would just follow the path of least resistance and come out of one. I know this has happened before with me and airstones. Can you not set up two and use the pressurised for the bigger tank and diy on the smaller.

All you need is one of these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-way-CO2-Diffuse ... 4ceb7940f3

Then you adjust the flow to each tank, you can also place a solenoid valve after each if you want to turn them on and off at different times.
