It only includes the ractor and pump the co2 tank and media is not icluded. Where could I get a co2 tank, regulator and media and about how much would that run in price.

regulator and tank are totally what you want on aesthetics. Personally i care about the way it looks, i would want brushed aluminum.

I mist out on the last deal does anyone know where I can get a good reactor with everything for under 200.00 (without co2 tank). Here are a couple that I am looking at. What do you think of them.

I like the 2nd one more, however mag pumps are notorious for leaking.... make sure you add cost of a pump for both of those items. My opinion is to buy something locally so you can get support and expertise on what you bought... but then again, I've mail ordered a lot of stuff too

Best of luck, they're a pain to tune in sometimes.

Great

If I do get one of these I will have to get with you to show me how to use it, because I have no clue how. I am watching 3 of these right now any where from $250 to $350. So I most likely will get one.

$350 will get you a new K2R, or can get you a double-cylinder reactor locally!!!

That $250 to $350 is for everything (reactor, gage w/sylinoid and tank and every thing else that goes with it). It is a complete set up

*shrug* you're gonna find it's better to get something new locally... I know that I ended up getting something used myself, but I only spent $140 on a complete setup, so that's a little different... you're talking aout $100 difference in a $350 product, it's not enough to justify getting an old, crudded, product that you may end up needing to refurbish, as I did. I spend almost $100 in tubing/plumbing to make mine servicable again.
