No visual inspection sticker. But they may have said that in the description.

I've purchased several of these (6cf, 13cf, and 19cf) over the years to use as pony bottles for different dive parameters. They are great bottles at a good price.

Bought the 40 cu ft. Don't dive without it

Can't go wrong with a Catalina pony. Perfect for solo divers or divers who want the peace of mind of a redundant air system.

Set up as deco bottle blended in nicely with my kit

Very happy with so far. Great size for using as a slung pony bottle. The pro valve gives great flexibility for DIN or Yoke.

Price was right. Convertible valve is nice since I bought a DIN reg to go with it. I sling it for bail out gas on deep dives. Once in the water, the 30cf is barely noticeable and has minimal effect on my buoyancy and trim (slightly negative when full). The 30 is great but I'd recommend the 40 instead since it's not much bigger and one can't have too much gas.

Great pony whether it be 19cf, 13cf, or 6cf. I use mine with the quick mount... love it. I do hope the butt wads at tsa are enjoying the 13cf they stole out of my checked luggage.

This cylinder had a recent Hydro Test date and functions as it should. Price is excellent and the bottle has worked as intended for several years now.

I use this size tank for remote stream diving. Light enough to hike with and explore streams for fish etc

I am a self reliant diver and started to do more deep dives. Picked this up as an extra safety measure. I have used it a couple of times just to make sure and it is perfect for my needs. I purchased the 30cu.

This 19cu pony is the cat's meow.. wear it sling across my chest and never is in the way but right there if needed.. And the 19cu is a really good size.. I use the first 1000 psi as a stage and then leave the last 2000 psi as a reserve... Great tank and a great price..

Just bought this and only have 4 dives but, seems well made and good quality and durable

I bought based on dive shop recommendation and the smallest size would work better as a second safety air source. Too large and it adds too much weight if your going off the shore

I use this as a redundant air source for Ice and wreck diving.

The valve looks and feels cheap. I ordered two of these, one 30cf and one 13cf and both arrived with damaged/deformed valves.. However the tanks themselves are awesome and you cannot beat the price even with the garbage valve.

Delivery was 2nd day and appropriated packed with filler to preclude damge in transit.

Nice finish. Came with Harrison convertable valve (HSV-C-48) for use with DIN or yoke, in satin chrome finish. 8 months old (from mfg date) when I received it. XS Scuba Pony Bag (19cf) fits just fine. No large graphic label like pictures show, just a 4" X 5" label towards the bottom with warnings and instructions. Label states it was Oxy cleaned but I'm guessing LDS may not accept and would charge you to clean for Nitrox (I use air in a pony). Did have to pay for Visual prior to filling since no inspection label was present, even though it was new.

Perfect Pony
By Dennis
I use the Aqua Genesis as a pony bottle. I chose the 30 cubic ft size because carries enough air to get me to the surface in any of the situations I am likely to encounter. Also it is big enough to be used as a stage bottle.
good item [...]

air for Dry suit
In course of using a scuba valve, there are times where excess air may have accumulated behind the face o-ring during normal use. When this air is not vented properly from the o-ring groove it can cause the o-ring to dislodge during regulator dismounting.
Sherwood valves feature an intentional stamping mark in the machined inner ring of the o-ring gland. This mark prevents the metal ring from sealing against the 1st Stage regulator and trapping pressurized gas in the o-ring groove. If this gas is not properly vented, it can force the o-ring to dislodge when the 1st stage is removed from the valve. The stamping mark creates a path to vent any trapped gas before the 1st stage is removed.
A pony bottle is a smaller tank, which is carried in addition to the main tank. It possesses its own regulator with first and second stage and sometimes a separate pressure gauge. It will is mounted either at ones side or in front of the body or fixed to the main tank. A pony bottle scuba tank is the only true redundant breathing mechanism you can completely rely on.
Depending on the type of diving you plan on doing will determine what capacity the redundant air supply needs to be. Leisure Pro offers five different size bottles to meet every divers requirements. If used for sport diving there are three choices 6, 13 and 19 cu ft cylinders. If deep or deep technical diving or wreck penetration or cave diving there are the 30 and 40 cu ft cylinders available.
The Pro Valve is one of the highest flow cylinder valves available today and is also a convertible valve. Whether you dive Yoke or DIN regulators this valve will work for both. Valve has easily removed 200 bar (3000 psi) DIN insert to convert the valve for use with DIN regulators. Valve has a heavy duty deign with a smooth operating mechanism and multi-ported burst disc plug for added safety.
Aluminum cylinders unlike steel cylinders don't rust, they oxidize. The oxidization of aluminum forms a protective coat that hinders the continuation of corrosion making aluminum cylinders less likely to be condemned due to excessive corrosion. When shipped the tanks valves will be removed and the tank will require re-inspection before being filled. The available cylinders have the following physical specifications:
Diameters:
6 cu. ft: 3.2" (8.13cm)
13 and 19 cu. ft: 4.38" (11.13cm)
30 and 40 cu. ft: 5.25 (13.34cm)

30 cu. ft: 19.98" (50.75cm)
40 cu. ft: 24.85" (63.1cm)
Weight:
6 cu. ft: 2.6 lbs (1.18kg)
13 cu. ft: 5.7 lbs (2.59kg)
19 cu. ft: 7.8 lbs (3.5kg)
30 cu. ft: 13.7 lbs (6.2kg)

30 cu. ft: -2.4 lbs (1.1kg)
40 cu. ft: -2.6 lbs (1.2kg)
Note:All Catalina cylinders are nitrox ready and meet certificated specifications of the US Department of Transportation (DOT) with DOT-3AL specification and Transport Canada Safety and Security (TC) with TC-3ALM specifications. Purchasers should check with other country requirements to know if the cylinders are certified for use in that country.
