Running the UP inline defuser on the inlet of my filter

[JamesD]

How many people here do this? I am fed up with the billions of tiny bubbles floating about and making the water misty.

I have read a couple of people doing it, is there any proven long term affect on the filter or filter performance?

You might end up with a pocket of CO2 forming at the top of the filter, which will clear itself when kicked! I haven't run an inline diffuser on an inlet, just a normal ceramic one under the inlet pipe.

Hi
Not many run the in-line atomiser in the in-let side because the detritus could clog up the atomiser.
Its best run from the out-let end as the water should be a lot cleaner.
Making it less likely that the atomiser would get fouled up with gunk.
