I have a small bazooka diffuser, it is not enough for my tank and I am tried of https://www.completeaquatics.co.uk/...MIsMyhxKfI2QIVyb3tCh0PAA8OEAQYBSABEgIzEvD_BwE as they occupy too much space in the tank and need to run an extra power head. I cant use inline diffusers as my Juwel tank has an in-tank filter. So I decided to use a >==╦╦=ʖ> My existing one is too small for 125 lt and got another one which is bigger and adequate for 125 lt.
My question is there any reason not to use both of them at the same time?I am planning to use one of this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AQUARIUM...hash=item33e04bb231:m:m3uU_UeKdGnrA0okK1AAkTA to split CO2 after the needle valve. Do you think it will split the CO2 adequately to both diffusers? I am planning to put them on different ends of the tank to increase homogeneity of CO2

Not from the same output as the CO2 will just come out of one as the resistance of both will not be identical. Unless you have a twin soleniod values

Then it would work and you could have both on just for reaching the target pH, then just one once target pH reached - which is what I do, over 1.0 pH drop in 45mins in 500l tank

Thats what I thought. Perhaps I should use one of those: https://www.co2supermarket.co.uk/2-way-splitter-for-co2-solenoid-regulator-p118.html but it is £33 :( and I only need another needle valve. I will ask to the vendor whether there is a way to split it after the regulator and put two needle valves on the the each line
 
I have tried splitting via needle valves and it just doesn't work, the flow rates simply don't ever match up, best off getting the splitter on the solenoid like zeus said.
