What is the best diffuser for DIY CO2 that doesn't require a filter or powerhead?

I like the fluval diffuser. It's cheap, easy to find at lfs and efficient

regular glass/ceramic diffusers work fine if you don't have any leaks.

This is what I used on my DIY.

EBay has them

Ebay...2x9.99 takes a while to get them, but is worth the month.

I got one from ebay in less than 3 days... Make sure you buy from someone within the states.

Cheap diffusers are hit or miss. Get at least two, and/or be prepared to do some work.

do those work well with low pressure? my diy sits underneith my tank and my current ceramic fluval diffusor doesnt bubble at all...... so if i get one from ebay, will it suffice? and until then can i just use a cheap airstone at the bottom of the tank?

the ONLY reason a ceramic diffuser will not work with DIY CO2 is if you have a leak.
