After looking at your setup. I would say save your money. Co2 is tricky and if not used rite it's a waste. With your first grow it's not worth it at all. But if your thinking you won't get freash air in there and plants won't have the righ co2. 300ppm or more. I would say get 1 or 2 exhale bags. Will help replenish co2 that that plants take up but will not get you to 1500 ppm.

So here is my answer for you. No co2
Grow a few times and fix the problems that will pop up. After that think co2. Just have a passave intake and you will be fine
 
I have gotten alot of info from here without having to ask but now I will ask 1,,I have a small room 60"x70" with a 600 watt hps witha a/c unit light vented and room mostly sealed I scored a Co2 tank it s as big as a scba dive tank with a simple reg for 50$ I want to buy a reg with a release and able to hookup to a timer , but I dont have a meter to read lvls ,,so should I buy a fancy reg or just open the tank nightly at bed (darktime) for a min or so ,,what should I do,help

You don't need a exspencive meter. You will need a gauge that you can turn on/off with a timer. Set timer to 15 on and 15 off during lights on. With that size room you will set it to run it set about 2 on the float. To test get a co2 seringe tester. Make sure your between 800-1600 ppm. And your good. 1tank should last you 2 weeks or maybe more. And make sure you place the supply hose above the plants. Co2 is heavier then air.
