    You can get your CO2 canister at any hobby shop that sells paintball supplies, and a tub and tubing at a hardware store.

    Co2 canister
    Co2 remote(the tube and control valve)

    Remotes can cost more than the empty canister depending on where you buy it.

    Any paintball/airsoft store. I'm pretty sure general sports stores like Big 5 or(lol it censored the store's name) will carry them too.

    You can also try Amazon and other online retailers.

    I use a 20 oz tank - it covers 15-20 gassings in a 15 qt tub. The little cartridges will not work with your remote line. There are ways to use the little cartridges but it is not humane because it releases all the gas at once, the rats know, freak out, and suffer (conscious). With the tank and remote line, you actually slow leak the gas until they pass out, then crank it up while they are asleep (no suffering).
