Co2 tank location...

[kris2001]

Is it safe to keep carx carbon dioxide tanks under the fish tank? I keep refilling them every 6 months do they ever explode??

I'm just wondering if I should keep the tank currently where it is which is like 6 ft far away from the display tank to the right...

They are full of CO2 under pressurized I'm nervous

Pls advice

They are made to be safe. The tanks are date marked. Beyond a certain date they will not refill them. Just dont drop one on its valve while putting in the top shelve in the garage. Tanks dont explode. You do hear stories about them turning into missiles in trucking accidents.

I would never worry about a tank exploding.

I have mine strapped to the wall to prevent it from falling over as a precaution but never worried about an explosion even when machinery I worked on used them.
